Q: My mother in law has been asked by her brothers to go for Umrah with them (they will pay all the expenses) but she refuses saying that she will go for Umrah only with her sons (they dont have enough money at this point in their lives). She says that she doesn't want any favours.
The question is, is she allowed to refuse Umrah? Would it be a sin? Or can she wait for her sons to take her to Makkah.

Q: I have a question that I'm having difficulty in finding an answer for. Would appreciate some help! I have read and heard that if a female gets her period during Umrah/Hajj, she can perform every ritual except Tawaf. Now some scholars say she can enter haram and others say she can't. I'm confused, because to do the Sai (in periods) one would have to enter the Haram. Can I sit in haram with my periods just to do tasbih?

Q: I want to ask about a property issue. What is the haqq of a girl child in Islam? How much should a father alot for his children if he has three children? The father converted to Islam just now only and does not believe in this, how to explain to him about this? And also this year the father is taking his elder daughter for hajj as her husband is an Ismaili and is not ready to give her money for hajj. Does the father have to give his younger daughter money for hajj?
