Q: What is the mas’alah regarding taking money for leading the Taraaweeh Salaah during the month of Ramadhaan? In the country I live in, most people performing Taraaweeh accept the money and gifts that people give them.

Q: Are human beings children of God or creation of God?

Q: Alhamdulillah we have ladies weekly talim in our area. The talim has been going on for approximately 15 years. Up until recent years there was no particular speaker who did the six points, some of the ladies took turns to do the six points. A few years ago a female who often goes out in jamaat moved into the area and she now does the six points every week. When I had talim at my home recently I called an Apa (the Apa is an Aalima) who conducts the talim in her area to be the speaker for that week. The lady who usually conducts our talim looked a little upset. Sometime before another resident wanted to call a prominent Apa to be the guest speaker however the lady who does our talim said that not just anybody may speak. I would like to call another Apa who conducts talim in various areas to be the guest speaker at my home. I do not want to offend our lady. Is her behaviour correct? What are the rules regarding who may do the six points?

Q: I am probably in the state of istihaazah but I am bleeding everyday continously for the past 2 months. With Ramadaan coming up I have many questions. Some days my flow is much heavier and some days its just a little, how does this affect my fasts? Please clarify the rules for salaah and reading Quraan as well?

Q: 

1.  It is reported that Abu Hurairah (Radiyallahu Anhu) led the prayers of janazah of Ayshah and Umme Salamah (Radiyallahu Anha) in the cemetery of Baqi and Ibn Umar (Radiyallahu Anhu) was also in the jama'ah. 
2. The Messenger of Allah said : "Take advantage of five things before the arrival of other five: Your youth before old age, your health before disease, your wealth before poverty, your life before death and your leisure before being too busy.
3. There are three things that accompany a mayyit until his grave, his family, his wealth and his actions. Among these three things, two return, his family and his wealth. Only his actions accompany it. (Saheeh Boukhari)
4. Fatimah, the daughter of the Messenger of Allah at the time of his death, turned to the Ka'bah and placed his right hand under his head. (Musnad Ahmad)
5. The waqia of Abou Talha and Umme Soulaim about the death of their son is mentioned in brief in Saheeh Boukhari. Anywhere else can it be found in details?

Q: A few days ago during a fight between my husband and myself, my husband said in extreme temper or rage “OK bring your relative I will finish this relation”. I said “no one can do this only we can. Give me divorce. He only said “I give you”, but did not use the word talaaq or divorce. After this we apologized to each other. I said to my husband you have given me 1 divorce. He said it does not count in divorce because he showed me a hadith in ighlaaq or extreme temper divorce will not count.

Q: Dreaming of my late father giving me money.

Q: Will it be permissible to read the Holy Qur'aan on your mobile phone if you previously viewed filth and haraam on the same phone. That was about six months ago and you have made taubah.

Q: I would like to know if it is permissible to have a type of funeral cover, in the area I live there is a type of funeral cover that you can join at the Mosque near to you. E.g. You pay an amount of R20.00 every month so in the case you pass away then your hole at the graveyard will be paid for & any other like transporting you to graveyard, etc. But what if you pass away after 6 months & the amount you paid them is not even half the costs of your burial, etc. & if you were paying for long time already now & you are still alive then you would have paid much more then what it would actually cost to do your janaazah. Please give a detail explanation if it is permissible in Islam to have something like this & why?
