Q:
1. If one does istinja using their hands, are their hands pure once they have finished istinja?
2. If they touch something right after with wet hands, do that thing become impure?
3. Also, I am a female and often, when I am squatting and making istinja with running water, I fear that water enters and exists my vagina. I cannot be sure about it but I feel as though it might be. I know water that exits the vagina is not pure yet, I do not see how I could pour water over my private parts without it entering the vagina (in fact I can't see how any other women would be able to avoid this as well) and I can't not wash it either. What should I do in this case?

2. Is it possible that although Allah was displeased with them and continued to make them wander, he still provided for them although he was displeased with them? Is it possible that this happens with us also? That although we don't work towards propagating Deen, Allah still provides for us, but he is not happy with us?
Q: Islam banks are giving away cars on the principle of Ijarah.
The bank buys a car and gives it to you on a monthly rent specified in the contract. The bank also keeps a security deposit. The ownership of the car remains with the bank during the rental period. You have the option to return the car at any point in time and get your security deposit back but the bank charges you a certain amount of money if you return the car before the expiry of the rental agreement duration specified in the contract. At the end of the rental agreement, you can either return the car and get your security deposit back OR get the ownership of the car transferred in your name in which case you have to forfeit your security deposit and you might even have to pay an additional fee.
Is transfer of ownership at the end of a rental agreement is permissible in Islam?
