Q: Allah Subahanahu wa Ta'ala has 99 names. I would like to name soon to be child (if its boy) Maalik. But I heard never to put the names of Allah without adding Abd or Abdul first.

Q: I want to know if a person gets married without the consent of their parents (means court marrige). Both parties are mature people and the people present at the time of the nikkah were the lawyer and 2 friends. They didnt sign the nikkah nama as witnesses whereas there are signatures of unknown people who were not present there at the time of the nikah, so is this nikah valid? So the nikah took place in court as it was a secret nikkah and there was no wali present. it was just the groom, bride, 2 female friends of the girl, 1 lawyer and 1 molvi to perform the nikah. The marriage was registered. But on the nikah nama as a witness 2 unknown people signed who were not present there at the time of nikah. So is this nikah valid?

Q: My query is about a land of 22 marlas in the name of my brother which we want to sell and that piece of land has a 2 storey building on it. We were running a school there for almost 20 years. In the building we have a 1 marla mosque in the corner properly built with a mehrab and now due to some financial reasons we want to sell the building. But due to the mosque in the corner, nobody seems to buy that building as it requires an extra attention. In the name of what to do with that cause it covers 25% of front look.

First we thought that no azaan is given properly in the mosque and nobody comes to that mosque because it is closed after school hours so we should consider it a piece of land too and sell it. But when I asked my ancestor about it then she told me that this mosque is here from day one when my grandfather bought this land about 25-30 years ago (we changed its location from left to right corner and built a proper masjid) and this 1 marla of land is devoted for the mosque. So now we cant touch this land and are bound not to sell it but we also can not separate this piece of land from the whole property.

We are in desperate need of money so we have to sell it. If we would sell it and build a mosque of the same area in another spot after receiving the amount of that piece of land or give this money to any mosque or any well fare trust or something will it be ok?
