Q: If someone asks me regarding Jesse Duarte...and I say she passed away a murtaddah in terms of shariah and if the claim that she read kalimah is true then it is Allah's perogative to forgive or punish her. Did I say the correct thing?

When I tell people she passed away a murtaddah, people tell me that I should not judge...but theres clear cut evidence she supported the LGBTQ+ movement publically in which she stated that we must change our thought process.

My father tells me that if anyone asks, I should say Allah knows best. According to senior Aalims they say that she passed away a murtaddah and if she repented, that is between Allah and her. Please advise respected mufti saheb.

Q: I wish to enquire regarding a new type of insurance called Takaaful. Is this new type of insurance permissible in Islam? Does Islam allow one to insure his house or car etc.?

I was always under the impression that all types of insurance are haraam.  However, I have been told that Takaaful insurance is quite different to conventional insurance as it is a waqf that one is investing in and by taking out this type of insurance, one will perpetually be gaining reward.
