Q: Can I get my licensed disc/COR done via a contact and give him a fee for doing it?

I'm noticing everyone is doing this these days. From my understanding, this is illegal because if the car is not roadworthy you should not get a COR/disc because you need to fix your car according to the rules of the road, which you agreed to when acquiring your vehicle license.

The contact that does this "back door" will get you the documents regardless of the condition of the vehicle, fit or unfit for the road.

Q: If I know a person who puts taweez in food and I can't refuse to eat the food, what dua should I read to not get affected by the taweez?

Q: I owe money to a person. In lieu of direct payment, I occasionally do some shopping on the creditor's behalf and thus reduce the amount I owe. What happens if I use my store benefit/loyalty points when shopping?

Example: total amount purchased R500. I used my loyalty point balance of R100 and total amount paid was R400. I occasionally also purchase items from this store for my personal use. Do I reduce the amount I owe by R500 or R400? In essence - who is entitled to the benefit/cash back reward from the store?

Q: Close family members read salaami etc. in their functions. Because of the close relation we are forced to attend. Should we sit during their salaami or stand as in our heart we do not believe or accept it?

Q: It has become the habit with doctors that the time of the appointment made is hardly ever upheld. Despite an appointment having been made for a certain time, a patient is made to wait sometimes upto an hour longer. Is this correct? It creates much frustration and inconvenience. 

Q: If a person fulfilled all his past sajdah sahw as a single sajdah instead of 2 sajdas due to ignorance of it, will qaza have to be made? 

Q: A Muslim man bumped into my car. He gave me the round around for 2 months. He eventually agreed to pay the panelbeater. Now he has excluded the vat amount. When I asked him for the vat amount he refused then says he will give me the vat amount as zakaat.

The full invoice of the panelbeater is what is supposed to be paid. He wants to now make it a zakaat thing thinking that I wont take it on hearing that it's zakaat. What is the ruling as the full amount is what had to be paid in the agreement of fixing me car?

Q: Is my husband a mahram to my grandmother or should she make parda from him?

Q: With consent from my parents and siblings, and my husbands entire family (but not his father), I had my Nikkah in November last year. As soon as we announced to my father in law, he was over the moon and incredibly happy. Some realtives also knew about the nikaah beforehand as they arranged our marriage. The Nikaah was beautifully done at the mosque in front of witnesses and my mother and sister. After the Nikaah my parents announced it to other relatives and friends. I and my family received a lot of backlash.

My question is, Islamically did we do any wrong in keeping the nikaah discreet from noise and simplifying it as best as we could? I have received love from my in-laws and family members who were generally happy. Some relatives and family members may forever hold a grudge of some sort. For my own contentment, I wanted to ask if I did anything wrong or were there any mistakes in hiding it from certain family members?

Q: I pray all my salaah but most of the time when I read salaah there is no concentration (jamaat or alone). I don't know whether my salaah is accepted or not and I also get bad doubts.
