Q: I have on my feet a lot of half peeled off small skin pieces (probably from little fungal infections) mostly in the form of circles. Because of this the small peeled skins borders are hanging over the skin below i.e. there are two layers of skin. Is washing normally sufficient in order to make wudhu? Also sometimes, I have the same on my hand (2 or 3 or 4 very little circles). Is just washing normally enough?
Q: After brushing my teeth with a Miswaak, my gums bleed. How or until when, do I have to complete my wudhu thereafter?
Q: When I become sexually excited, a fluid seeps out of my private part. There is a tingling sensation and itchiness in my private part when it seeps out, but clearly there is no sexual pleasure or orgasm when it seeps out because I have experienced an orgasm before. I am always in doubt since it is difficult to differentiate female ejaculate from other fluids which are discharged from a women's private part unlike men. Since it affects our daily prayers, so do I still need to perform ghusal? I follow the hanafi madhab.
Q: My job requires me to travel a lot. I sometimes stay in an apartment with a communal kitchen. The dishes are thus also used by non-muslim guests. After guests use the dishes, they are cleaned by the staff of the lodge. Now when I use these dishes, do I have to rinse it seven times to make it clean, if there are no apparent signs of impurities on them?
Q: My problem is that when I intend to pray a lot of gas starts to build up in my bowels. I make wudhu with difficulty by stopping it and pray in the same way. This problem always occurs whenever I decide to pray. At other times, I have gas problems comparable to a normal person. Following is an account of hardships that I have been facing because of it.

She does not bleed for the next 5-7 days and resumes bleeding thereafter for a while. After 7 days of bleeding is Salaah ,Quran recitation, Conjugal relationship permitted? How many days is her monthly cycle?
Q: I have read that conjugal relationship should be done to the bare minimal to the extent that it should be only once in a lifetime. Also mentioned that looking at the private parts or in a standing position etc. could result in a blind or dumb child etc. mentioned together with a few more repercussions. Is all of this authentic?
Q: A woman experiences her menses for an indefinite amount every cycle, after e.g. 7 days her bleeding stops. She performs Salaah etc. However at times the bleeding restarts before 10 days... Is conjugal relationship allowed while she is performing Salaah?
Q: If clean clothes are put out to dry, do they remain paak if it rains and they become soaked or do they need to be re-washed? Similarly, the container the clothes are placed in after they are dry was outside and also became soaked as did the washing line. Do these items remain paak or do they need to be re-washed?
