Marrying a Jinn

Q: If a human and a genie have offspring, would it be considered a human or a jinn? How would that child be treated in the Aakhirat, as a human or jinn? If that child is born like a human and lives a life like humans only, but the parents are mixed (father is human and mother is a genie). If such offspring’s fall in love with humans are Muslim men/women allowed to marry such offspring who are a mix and living as human beings only and following Islam like every other human? Will this marriage be considerable by Allah and shariah? Is this marriage punishable in afterlife? 

Giving zakaat to organisations

Q: Could Moulana please assist with the following regarding Islamic organizations collecting zakaat:

1. Are we (the committee) the wakeels of the donor or the recipient?

2. If we become the wakeels of the recipients, will the zakaat of the donors be discharged as soon as they hand over to any member of the committee?

3. In the case of na baaligh children who are a legible to receive zakaat, who is their wakeel/guardian? Can it be a member of the committee since these kids generally have non Muslim parents. (They attend madrasah in the locations but most of them are the only Muslims in their homes).

4. Any other advice or guidance will be much appreciated.

Celebrating moulood

Q: What if I do not celebrate the mawlid but my mother and father celebrate the mawlid. Also my father is a sufi but I only follow Allah and his Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam). People from the sufi masjid label me as a wahabi or a salafi. What should I do? They say I don’t love the Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) if I do not celebrate his birthday. But the early Muslims did not celebrate his birthday and it’s not in the authentic saying of the Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam).

Mistakenly dropping the Quraan

Q: I have disrespected Quran many times. Most of the time it is unintentionally. But it happens many times. Such as today, I was reading Quran keeping it over two pillows and while reciting, it suddenly dropped down and touched my feet. My eyes were closed because I was reciting from memory. Many times the Quran Sharif dropped from my hand. I unintentionally touched it without wudu and it was touched by my feet one more time in my life when I was young. What do I do since it burdens my mind?
