Q: Shab e Baraat is soon and I’d like to know how can a woman in haidh spend it? I am aware we can do dhikr but could you please assist with any specific zikr that holds a lot of weight that can be done on this night?

Q: I am teaching students in the maktab and I came across these four Ahaadith in the talimi board maktab syllabus. Someone mentioned to me that these Ahaadith are not suitable to quote. I will appreciate if the ulama can verify the authenticity of these Ahaadith and whether they can be quoted or not. The four ahaadith are listed below:

Q: What are the conditions for the validity of pelting?

Q: Can a woman cut another woman's hair after Umrah or must it be done by a Mahram?

Q: 

1. Can I read durood and zikr with short sleeves? Is it still rewarded and accepted?

Q: Regarding inheritance/working out zakaat, an estate has only money, no business, etc. 

The house and car of the deceased was already given to his wife in his lifetime - it was accepted and agreed by all during his lifetime that it belongs to his wife. 

The person passed away 3 years ago - the estate got sorted out last week and shares were given. 

Must the zakaat be give for all the previous years while they were sorting out the inheritance? 

And when do they pay zakaat for the share that was received? Should it be paid now or would they wait for a year to pay it?

Q: I found the below statement about tayammum online, is this true? 

"If performing wudu causes extreme fatigue or is too difficult due to your condition (e.g., mobility issues or severe pain), you may: Seek assistance if someone can help. Use tayammum if assistance isn't available or feasible." Is this true? 

Q: A person asked me to make a credit card and provide him, he would be responsible for all credit card matters i.e. fees/charges and in return, he would pay me an amount of 1000 dollars. And I will pay 1000 dollars back in 12 equal monthly installments. I will not use the credit card benefits. Is this deal ok in the light of Islam?

Q: If a person had a struggle to get a job, he got a job and then saved up and he had enough money to get a basic Hajj package but if he doesn’t have time off that he can request from work, would he leave his job and do Hajj or would he keep his job and intend Hajj the following year?

Q: My mother complained that the bags that people put next to a tree on our road gets collected quickly and that we are needlessly keeping unwanted furniture etc. in our house when it can get collected quickly and for free. She threw some of our bags in that area. 

I told her fly-tipping is wrong but she says that everyone does it. Fly-tipping is considered illegal and finable. I’m worried that she may be sinning by doing so. Does she have to repent? I’m also worried that I may have aided her as she asked for a bag to collect the waste to throw out and I reluctantly gave her.
