Q: I have some doubts regarding fishing, which I would like you to please clear.

2. If the above is not permissible, would it be permissible for me to only take home the smaller fish, as I live alone and have no use for the larger fish.
3. If (1) and (2) are not permissible, what may I do with my fishing equipment. May it be sold or given away?

Q: If a person drinks alcohol and eats and drinks water after it, can we assume traces of alcohol have been gone from his mouth.

Q: Taqiyyah is to safeguard and with the recent events of the world I can't help but think about a verse from the Holy Quran that says "He who disbelieves in Allah after believing in Him; not he who has been compelled, while his heart is still content with the faith, but he who opens (his) breast to disbelief, upon them shall rest wrath from Allah and for them shall be a great chastisement" [Quran 16:106] How does that apply to hijab. If a sister must go to an area where she fears for her life because people easily identify her by her hijab, is Taqiyyah permissible if she removes it for that one time?
Q: I had an incident with my sister who said her money was stolen from her bag and she used the key and Qur'an to nab the culprit. The Qur'an turned on my name even though I didn't take her cash and I tried whole heatedly to prove I am innocent but to no avail. I was asked to swear on the Qur'an and on Allah Ta'ala which I did but Ii was told I am still lying. Please advise what should i do?
