Q: In the event a man has two wives and not wanting them to have jealousy and fights, he puts a code on his phone not allowing his wives to access his cell phone to see his calls, messages or photos. Would this be acceptable Islamicly even though the wife insists on looking into the phone and becoming angry for days on end?
Q: I have contracted a second marriage secretly. When my first wife found out some months later I confessed and openly went to live with her. The family being very upset did not accept this, the reason being
1. She worked in our store.
2. My son claims to have been intimate with her. He took her out for coffee and kissed her and also wanted to marry her.
3. She had some bad reputation /drugs /drinking /men.
4. She has an illegitimate son.
She became Muslim without being forced. I divorced her to keep every one happy she went into a depression and left town tried committing suicide. I felt I should help her. Her mother and father asked me to assist. Taking me as her husband, I took her back in nikkah again secretly. I brought her back home but could not live with her because of my family. I promised to take care of her. Is my intention and feeling to keep her due to the fact that I've seen her become a good woman? She now feels Islam is not just due to my actions. I've explained to her that due to the fact that she became Muslim all her passes sins would be forgiven, including my sons allegation that he slept with her which she deny's.
The question here is, is her slate cleaned as of her taking shahaadat or does her passed actions carry forward? In the event she slept with my son, she becomes haraam for me even though she slept with him prior to taking the shahaaada?

Q: I am married for 18 years and have two children aged 16 and 14. My husband was a wonderful jolly loving person. He faced many business stresses and traumas like robbery and assault. The last 5 years has been a roller coaster living with him. The psychiatrist said he has bipolar schizophrenia with lots of paranoia and hallucinations. He refuses to take the antipsychotic meds ability and is making our home environment hell. If you look at him he looks like a good moulana. White kurta and mashaallah beard. He is always moody sulky and paranoid. He only makes salaam to me and thats it. Please advise how do I live with this silent treatment for years and the pain of emotional abuse. I am sad heartbroken and emotionally drained. I am staying for the sake of my children.. is there any support in Pretoria for women who are being tortured by selfish husbands like mine. His illness has robbed my of my happiness. Please help me understand why he does not want to take meds to get better.
Q: I want to have a baby and my husband does not want. We are both in our 40s and he says he is too old. I have tried talking to him but he doesn't want to listen. Iasked him maybe we can go see a Moulana and get some counselling but he says no. Is there anything else I can do?
Q: Why are the descendants of only Hazrat Hasan and Hazrat Husain (Radhiyallahu Anhuma) considered to be the extended bloodline of Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) considering Hazrat Fatima had other children too. Adding further, Hazrat Umama also had a child. Is it an exceptional case?
Q: In the books of ahadeeth, there are numerous instance like Hadeeth e Kisa or the incident of Mubahala where there is only the presence of Hazrat Fatima recorded. Whereas Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) had 3 more daughters, and during these two incidences at least 2 daughters apart from Hazrat Fatima were alive. Apart from these two incidences, there are many hadeeths in which the position of Hazrat Fatima is extolled and there is hardly any reference of Ruqayyah bint Muhammad, Umm Kulthum bint Muhammad, Zainab bint Muhammad. They also don't feature among the Ahle Bayt, wherever that reference is found in the books of hadeeth.
Q: Is it permissible to seek knowledge about Deen on the internet and have it verified by a scholar of Deen via WhatsApp or email? I'm in contact with shia and salafi scholars, each one of them says the others Hadeeths are weak and not to be trusted. However I do my own research but I don't know amongst the two who is correct. I listen to many of Mufti Menk lectures and Dr Naik and I learn a lot from them alhudulillah but I still do my research on internet. Because I don't know the scholars around here are maybe misguided. Please advise me.
