Q: I like to know the meaning of the name Ifrahim (son of Hazrat Yusaf (alaihis salaam)? People usually say ifrahim but on net it's more like afrahim. Which is more correct in Arabic term?

Q: My wife is not responding to me even in basic aspects like respect. I am working out of town and come home every week. If she is in bed then she nevers gets up. She never asks me if I need water or anything. She is always reluctant to have sex and agrees unwillingly. I give Rs 50000 every month for the household expenses. 10 years ago we moved out of my parents home because they told me to divorce her or live seperately. Now I am tired of her attitude. Please guide because I am concerned about my 3 kids.

Q: If someone got land from a bank by mortgage/loan and due to non payment of the fees, the land was taken by the bank. Is it permissible for me to buy that land after it is auctioned by the bank through the courts system, for the purpose of building a musjid etc.?

Q: A plot of land was made waqaf for a musjid in the 1970s, however no musjid was built on it because of the group areas act. In 1980 a musjid was constructed on another site. All these years the jamaat has been paying rates etc. for the first plot. There is no need to build a second musjid as the town is small and the current musjid suffices for the towns needs. We pose the following questions:

1. Can the land be let out temporarily?

2. Can the jamaat build houses on the land for income permanently?

3. How should the income be utilised?

4. Can the income of the waqf land be utilised for running the affairs of the current musjid?

Q: I have a topic I would like to speak about that I've been trying to read upon but simply can't find anything about it. I recently got married alhamdulilah. Me and my wife spend a lot of time together and alhamdulilah we're looking for a house as soon as possible but I have a feeling we won't consumate the marriage (intimacy) till a long time down the line. I'm just not a sexually active person. I adore my wife and enjoy my time with her so much that sex is never on my mind and she is the same. Is it haram or wrong to wait till the perfect time even if it takes 3-6 months to have sex? 

Q: With all due respect, I would like to ask if a wife is not in condition (emotionally or physically) to have intercourse with husband. Can a husband still have intercourse even if it looks like a rape or if husband is angry and does the action forcefully without any consent or willingness of wife. What does shariah say about it.
