Q: While I was in Johannesburg recently we were invited to a "Ghadat". I wanted to attend but my wife refused to, as she comes from a well known family of learned Scholars and they don't attend such gatherings. I, myself, have never yet attended a Ghadat. What is the purpose of such a gathering and is it allowed in the Shariah?

Q: I performed my fajr salaah with jammat. After I returned home, I went to take a quick shower before going to university. Last night I can't remember if I saw any thing or ejaculating at night but in the morning while washing between my leg and private organ they was kind of a fluff dirt not on my private they was nothing there. After I smelled my underwear, there was a little smell. Don't know if it was sperm but no sign at all of any najaasat. I just changed my life a week ago after committing a few major sins. By this happening it will make me stop my ibaadat and worship of Allah. I am not sure of what to do. My bedding is not messed. I started my missed salaahs. What do I do?

Q: My question is that I met a Muslim guy online and we fell love in last year. He used to support Islam on the internet just like me but somehow we fell in love. Then suddenly he started abusing Islam astaghfirullah and he made friends with atheists. When I asked him about his behaviour, he says he is just trollig the atheists. I think this is silly. He makes fun of the Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) but at the same time he fasts and prays too. I love him a lot but he treats me bad and ignores me a lot but still he says he loves me. What kind of love is this sir? And tell me a dua so I can forget him.
