Q: Is auto circumcision, i.e.: those who keep their foreskins permanently retracted recognized as a valid circumcision in Islam? After all, it meets all the requirements for circumcision in Islam, i.e.: by exposing the entire glans and ensuring that the private parts are clean before offering prayers. The only difference is that the foreskin is NOT REMOVED. Besides, by keeping the foreskin permanently retracted, the person already has the desire to be circumcised even though he has not undergone the operation.

Q: I'm in my 2nd year, studying accounting. I read the following hadith the other day: Allah's Messenger (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) cursed the recipient of usury (interest), and its giver, and one who records it, and the two witnesses; and he (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said, "They are all equal (in sin and penalty)" as narrated by Hazrat Jaabir bin Abdullah (radhiyallahu anhu). I am now worried, as an accountant will record interest when doing accounts. What should I do?
