Q: If a person says something like: 

“Wallāhi, I promise to Allah I won’t go on Instagram. If I do, I’ll give R50 in sadaqah as the expiation for me going onto Instagram.” 

1. Does this wording constitute a yamīn (oath), a nadhr (vow), or something else according to the Hanafi madhhab? 

2. Is there any way to cancel or revoke it before breaking it? 

3. If the person were to go on Instagram, would the prescribed kaffārah for a broken oath become obligatory, or would the R50 sadaqah suffice as the expiation?

Q: Is man superior to woman in this world and the next (Akhirah)?

Q: Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) mentioned [the case] of a man who, having journeyed far, is disheveled and dusty, and who spreads out his hands to the sky saying “O Lord! O Lord!,” while his food is haraam (unlawful), his drink is haraam, his clothing is haraam, and he has been nourished with haraam, so how can [his supplication] be answered? 

Question: 

1. Does this hadith mean that it is "impossible" according to Islam that such a person's supplication (dua) will be accepted by Allah? 

2. According to Islam, can the supplications (dua) of such a person whose income, food, clothing are haraam be accepted by Allah, not because the person deserves to have his supplications (dua) accepted, rather due to Allah's infinite kindness, generosity, mercy?

Q: Is it permissible to follow a non mahram on social media?

Q: At the end of a Madrasah academic year/grade, a gathering (often called a jalsah) is held with nasheeds, bayaans and awards for students. Is there anything in Islam where it states that a dua should be made at this gathering/jalsah?

Q: If a pimple bursts and after that I make wudhu. After making wudhu, a clear fluid is still coming out of the pimple. Will this clear liquid break my wudhu?

Q: I heard that when the Azaan goes for Jumuah Salaah, then it is not permissible to do anything but proceed for jumuah or make wudhu or fardh ghusl. 

Is it permissible to go for a sunnat ghusl after the Azaan starts? Will it depend on whether one is smelling or not?

Q: I have a question regarding the ruling on yellow clothing for men. 

Some hadith mention the Prophet ﷺ forbidding garments dyed with yellow saffron (muʿaṣfar), while other discussions mention yellow clothing in general. Could you please clarify: 

1. Is the prohibition specific to garments dyed with yellow dyes such as saffron or wars? 

2. Or does it apply to any garment that is completely yellow, regardless of how the color was produced? 

3. According to the Hanafi madhhab, what is the ruling for Muslim men: haram, makruh tahrimi, makruh tanzihi, or permissible? 

4. Does the ruling differ between plain yellow clothing and clothing that is only partly yellow? 

Q: Is it permissible for a female to remove cowlicks on her eyebrows?
