Q: My husband and I have had a lot of issues for the last 3 years. He gave me two proper talaq in November by saying, I divorce you. Then he reconciled. Again we had some differences and he said a couple of times that "tum meri taraf sey farigh ho". He also sent me two messages saying "you are free from my side and I am not interested in this relationship anymore". He messaged me that this was the last message from him. He then left the house and has been away for a month. Now he's saying that talaq hasn't taken place and I should apply for khula if I intend separation as he had no intention of leaving me despite all his messages and words. Where do I stand?
Q: I would like your advice, other than interpretation of dreams, regarding my first wife. It is understandable the shock she had about hearing about my second marriage, but at that point I did not deny it and I accepted it and told her the circumstances and reasons for taking this step. Now she is in constant denial and acceptance. For a while she relaxes and then starts again, suffering herself and making me suffer too. I would like to say that my second wife is in Indonesia. And I have told my first wife many times, that look at the big picture, I am here, with you alive and well, but she sometimes gets relieved, but after a short while, she starts again. It is affecting me very hugely, because I am in a high pressure job. First wife also had gynecological problems. I am taking her for medical help, but that will only work if she believes in herself . I need your advice.

Q: In chapter no 7 (Surah Al-Araf) verse number 204 it is stated that "When the Qur'an is read, listen to it with attention, and hold your peace: that ye may receive Mercy". So why do people when praying Fajr, Maghrib and Isha (fardh) behind the imam (first 2 rakahs), when the imam finishes reciting surah AL-Fatiha, many people recite surah fatiha, although the imam is reciting another surah. Please do clarify this.
Q: Some days back I admitted my wife in a hospital because she was pregnant and doctors have confirmed that the child in her womb may have some defect and he may not survive longer. On hearing this news from the doctors, my mother decided to sacrifice a sheep in the path of Almighty Allah and distribute the meat to the neighbours so that Allah's blessings will be showered upon us. After the delivery, the infant was admitted in the hospital for 9 days and by the grace of Allah, the baby is recovering too fast and today we were discharged from the hospital. Now my mother is insisting to sacrifice the sheep and distribute it among our neighbours but I am trying to convince her that we should give the sheep or sell the sheep or pay its cost (cost of that sheep) to the masjid (mosque) which is under construction. Now I want to know what will be the better option, to sacrifice it and distribute it among the neighbours or to pay its cost to the masjid?
Q: A person has an investment in a unit trust from the 1970's. The unit trust was not shariah compliant, and thus included investments in alcohol/gambling based companies, interest based financial institutions, as well as ordinary companies.
1. Is it permissible to utilise dividends received from the unit trust to pay income tax for a business?
2. Is it permissible to offset these dividends received from the unit trust against income tax that is deducted from a persons salary by his employer? If this is permissible, can it be offset against amounts deducted for income tax in previous years (as the dividends were already received then, and tax deducted then), or would it only be permissible going forward (as dividends are received and income tax deducted)?
Q: A Hindu worker had come into my room. He then asked why I sleep on the floor despite having a normal bed. I was unsure how to explain, so I just replied that 'I find it more comfortable'. Was this the right thing to say? I sleep on the floor so that I can face the Qiblah whilst sleeping.
