Q: About 5 years ago, I took an oath that I will not get involved with any female. If I did, then my nikah with her will terminate. Presently, my wife treats me badly, we do not share a bed. I am told to sleep in another room. I want to know, if I can withdraw my oath, as the scenario has changed? I am told to just issue her with her freedom, as she has been unhappy for the past 25 years.

Q: If someone's father bought a lot of property in his life, but in the beginning, if he took a loan from the bank and mixed it with the money he earned to purchase some properties, if the father dies then is all the property halaal for his children? Because the father included the bank loan amount and bank takes interest when giving a loan.

Q: Is it permissible to do share marketing. For example, I bought 100 shares of Reliance Communication for 35 Indian rupees per share. Suddenly the share value increased to 38 Indian rupees. So I sell the 100 shares on the same day and got a profit 300 Indian rupees. Is this halaal or not?

Q: I live in a country where car insurance is mandatory, without which one cannot drive and get anywhere. Out of necessity we got a car insurance.

Recently, my mother got in a car accident (it was not her fault, she was hit from behind) and was injured (she has a concussion and pain in her head). Per the insurance rules, she was to be given treatments (physiotherapy and so on) as well as compensation money due to her injury. The insurance company did not give her the compensation money or pay for her treatment costs completely. She wasn't event told she could receive compensation.

Later, she talked to a lawyer who was introduced by her friend who told her about it. Now she is making a claim against the insurance company to receive proper treatments (with all costs covered) as well as compensation money.

Is this compensation money halal to use?

Q: Does a woman have to pray during the periods of dryness during the beginning of her menses? For example, a woman who normally has a heavy period that lasts over a week, notices a small burst of blood during the time she is expecting her period, but then experiences a day of two of dryness (though she expects her period will resume), then the blood starts really flowing.

Does she have to pray during the day or two? If so, does she have to make ghusl before praying? How many days is the period of purity according to the hanafi Madhab?

Lastly, does a woman consider her menses started if the blood is still in the inside of her private part (has not yet flowed to the outer, visible part)? For example, if she inserts a piece of tissue into the inner part of her private part (inside the hole, where it is not visible) and it comes back with blood, but the blood does not flow to the outer part for about half of a day (such that if she wipes the outer part, the tissue comes back clean), is she still considered on her period during this time?

Q: I am a female who normally has both yellow and white vaginal discharge. Scientifically, from what I read, yellow discharge can be a normal discharge for women, and it is simply the vagina cleaning itself. This discharge occurs before and after my menses and well as during my 'pure' days, pretty much all month long, pretty frequently. Until now, I did not consider this my period as it occurs naturally throughout the month and my actual period is very obvious as it very heavy and painful and lasts 8-10 days. Recently, in a fatwa, I read that any color other than white, including yellow means menses, and in another I read that this yellow should only be considered menses if it occurs right before the blood flow. I am confused - is this yellow discharge menses islamically?

If it is, this will make things very difficult for me. Since it occurs nearly all the time, it will occur right after my 15 days of purity, and I will have to consider the week right after it my period. The actual blood flow will start later, and I will have to make ghusl during the days of actual blood flow. Given that my menses flow is consistent and heavy, how do I make ghusl in this case? if I simply shower, the blood will continue to flow and will mix with the water. In fact, no matter how I shower, the water would inevitably run over the blood and over other parts of my body. How do I wash and make ghusl while the blood flows without getting the rest of my body impure?

Also, it seems that the opinion that this discharge is not menses unless accompanied by blood, which is what I have been following my whole life, also seems to appear in the Hanafi fiqh as well as other madhabs. Given the immense difficulty and stress the other position would put me under (especially as I am struggling with OCD regarding impurities and making ghusl with blood running in between my legs would give me major anxiety), am I allowed to carry on with this fiqh position? I am sorry this is very long, however this issue has been given me a huge deal of stress, and will be incredibly difficult for me if this discharge is in fact menses islamically.

Q: I have a few questions regarding figuring out the end of my period.

For the last 10 years, I had been relying on the opinion that once there has been clear discharge/dryness towards the end of one's menses, whatever comes after that in terms of colored discharge should be ignored. I determined my habit according to this rule (when I say dryness once, I considered it the end of my period and ignored what came after).

Recently, I have been told that the colored discharge after menses is also considered menses (up to the 10 day mark) and one must make ghusl accordingly, multiple times when necessary. Is this the correct opinion?

If so, must I re-determine my habit according to this opinion or do I stick with my previous habit?

Lastly, since according to the first opinion, whatever comes after dryness is to be ignored, for the last 10 years I have been doing ghusl only once usually, and not repeating it following colored discharge afterwards. Do I have to make up all the prayers I did in this state for the last 10 years?

Also, the discharge that is after the established habit but before the 10 day mark, is this also menses?
