Q: If I had a wet dream and I need to do ghusul, after washing my private parts, is it necessary to wash my feet because when I wash my private parts, the water will flow to my feet?

Q: I am from Roshnee, studying in Azaadville (distance between Roshnee and Azaadville is 76 Km). My wife is from Rustenburg which is +/-100 km to Azaadville.
So we staying together here in Azaadville, but I do not intend ever settling down here because I have to basically just finish my studies.
Ps. We usually don't stay here for more than 15 days. So can the following intentions be permissible:
My niyyah: My darul watan is still Roshnee, I make niyyah for safr when I leave Roshnee intending to continue my journey more than safr distance, and stay in Azaadville for less than 15 days (by our flat).
My wife's niyyah: She keeps Rustenburg as her darul watan as she hasn't established herself anywhere else yet, not Roshnee nor Azaadville. Azaadville is just a darus safr as she will not stay for more than 15 days like myself. She reads qasr when in Roshnee.
So do I read qasr in Rustenburg? Are these intentions correct or should we change our niyyah to base ourselves in Azaadville and work accordingly or what is Mufti Saheb's opinion?
Q: I am doing qurbani this year. Please advise whose name I must slaughter on.
Q:My father left behind 25 lacs in his account after his death. We are two brothers, my elder brother is married and is doing a govt job. I am student and unmarried yet. I'm not unemployed yet. My father had made a bequest to my mother that all this money should be given to me only and not to my brother. Should I keep all the money? If I keep it without giving any share to my brother, will I be sinful?
Q: I have recently heard that if you start a prayer, even if that prayer is nafil or sunnat, and you break it, that prayer becomes wajib. I used to do this quite often in the past. Can I offer tawbah or must I make them up? I have no idea how much I have, so if I must make them up, how should I go about doing so?
Q: Is working as a timetable planner within a rail freight company permissible? I’m not sure if they handle haraam goods. The company is GB Rail Freight. Is it better to avoid?
Q: I am using government electricity. The government charges on electricity are very unfair since the area where I stay is a bit of a rich people area. They charge us more whereas electricity in the surroundings/other areas is much cheaper. So thats why I decided to slow down my prepaid meter. Is it right/permitted in Islam?
Q: My family has recently started giving food parcels to the less fortunate. It has gradually grown by numbers and is now once a week that a little over 100 food takeaway containers are given at 1 venue (more kids) and on another day, at a different venue, around 400 food packets are distributed. Majority of the people are non-Muslim and it was our intention to distribute to this particular group in the hope that this act alone would encourage or display the deen to these people and any others who might see. We are not well known in the area so hopefully by us doing it in a visible spot, not in everyone’s eye, but still visible to passer by’s.
Our intention is that this act should be sincerely for the pleasure of Allah and seeking nothing more than the reward and hopefully, Insha Allah, the correct message will be portrayed in hope of it being a means of Allah giving any of them hidayat. Our fear is that we do not want to lose the reward because of it becoming known by people we know, or even our weak hearts looking for anything more then the pleasure of our Creator. We try our utmost to never speak about it so as not to transgress, what the right hand does, the left hand should not know!
We need help and advice and we don’t know who to ask but at the risk of it becoming a thing of show or more importantly at the risk of losing the reward, hopefully we can be assisted here. We sincerely believe that there is a grand opportunity for us to pass the message of Deen on to these people and make it more of an Islamic drive so that we can maximize the opportunity and spread the word of Islam through this opportunity. How do we do it without involving the local ulama?
What else can we do to use this opportunity for dawah? We considered including literature in the parcels but fear that if Allahs name is mentioned in the literature and they just discard it, then that would also be sinful.

Does the ruling differ with fard, nafl and sunnah?
