Q: Are men allowed to use a urinal which is private? Meaning nobody else can see them.

Q: There are most of our relative women whose husbands don’t fall in the catogray of taking zakat, but they don’t care about these women in terms of their daily needs, continually working them in fields and if they became ill, they don’t take them to hospital. Because of illness, few died and others are suffering. Is it allowed if I support them with zakat.

Q: I have nafil and sunnat prayers to make up that I used to break in the past and are now wajib. Is it valid if I make the niyyah of "2 rakat wajib"? Or do I have to specifically make niyyah of sunnat/nafil and which daily prayer they belonged to?

Q: Kiya ek testicle wale baqre ki qurbaani jaiz he?

Q: We know that angels are infallible, but what about the story of Haroot and Maroot, when they taught people magic, were they not sinning when teaching people magic?

Q: I have been experiencing alot of difficulties in life over the years and just can't be happy despite trying many things to remove the difficulties. I am always sad and depressed.

Many years ago around the time my problems started, I read a book about some of the pious people of the past. In it there was a narration about a well known pious person being seen in a dream by someone after he passed away. The person asked this pious person about his condition in the hereafter. The pious person said that Allah granted him a place in Jannat near the Sidratul Muntaha because he was always in the state of huzn. Immediately I made dua "Oh Allah, keep me also in the state of huzn and grant me also a place in Jannat near Sidratul Muntaha" without even knowing what huzn means. Some time after this I remembered this dua and found out what it means.

1. Could it be because of this dua I made out of ignorance that I am always depressed and having problems in my life?

2. If it is because of this dua, what do I do now to put an end to my problems and constant state of huzn?

Q: It is seen usually in some masjids and Dawat and Tabligh maraakiz that people are engaged in dua some time before Maghrib Azaan. Is it allowed or prohibited?

Q: What is the difference between aqeedah and sunnah?

Q: I uttered words of kufr and shirk. If I say the shahadah and ask Allah to forgive me, is that enough?

Also, if an apostate returns to Islam, is he equal to the Muslim who never committed kufr?

Q: I have read on many trusted sites that, urethral discharge is impure. However, if someone is getting this discharge a lot and it is difficult to control, can they be excused from washing it constantly? I experience a lot of anxiety and stress and is probably why I am getting this type of discharge. I know from experience. I don't want to be stuck in the toilet for a long time or use a lot of water.

1. So what can I do? I've read somewhere else that a girl used to experience this discharge because of severe headaches, so she was advised that its not the normal urethral discharge.

2. Doesn't it make you najis because its coming out of the place where urine comes out?
