Sajdah-e-Tilaawat

Q:

  1. Does Sajdah Tilawat have to be commenced from a standing position or can it be done straight from a sitting position?
  2. When completing the Sajdah Tilwat does one have to stand up after the Sajdah or is it ok to complete the Sajdah by returning to the sitting position?

Premarital relationships

Q: My fiancé is in London and is struggling. He has now applied for a work permit and is about to complete his degree. I am now 25 and still at home it has become difficult for me and they depend upon his work permit in London where as I tell him its Allah who has to feed us. Please give me wazifa for him so he can get settled and we can get married. Also a wazifa for my own rizq as I am working and earning and I have to fix my wedding with it. I hope you understand my both problems and deal with both of them separately or a combined wazifa. But please guide me with both.

Being patient and turning to Allah Ta`ala

Q: I am married with 3 kids and residing in South Africa and all the kids are going to Islamic school sponsored by Muslim organization because we can't afford it as the Refugees in SA. We are all sleeping in one room but Alhamdulillah we are surviving by Allah's Mercy. Now my husband want to
relocate to UK all alone and told me we'll join him later. I am not complaining as we are sustaining through my income. My question is my heart doesn't want him to leave us, he may reach there and start adultery in the name of UK permit. I have been making Tahjuud, fasting for Allah to help us, please advise.

Being involved with a non-Muslim

Q: I am in quite a problem. I don't know how to put this but anyway I met this guy he is not muslim and I don't know what got in to me, but I dated him and things have gotten serious between us. I know its wrong for me to be dating and a non muslim too! But every time I try and stop our relationship, we always getting back together and he just won't let go. I don't know what to do anymore. My parents don't like him for me but my mother does like him but she tells me that she will never stand for it, she don't want a non muslim for me and even if he converts she won't accept it!

Backbiting

Q: If a person has committed backbiting against someone, and wants to make taubah from backbiting, and the person he was backbiting about does not know about it, does one have to go and tell the person I said this and that about you, make maaf, or can one beg forgiveness from Allah and do some good action and send the sawaab to the person?

Finding a spec of paint on one's face after Salaah

Q: I performed asr once, broke my wudoo, went downstairs and the banisters of the stairs have paint bits that come off onto your hands [not wet paint, its like white specks that come off] and then I made wudoo' and went back upstairs using banisters, prayed and when I finished after a short while of being in my room I looked in the mirror and noticed a small speck on my eyelid and this speck doesn't really take much to take off, even a rub does it and now what do I do? Do I assume my prayer's valid as it could have been either times, but most likely the speck would have come off in wudoo as you wash your face three times?
