Q: I came across some information a few years ago, which I don't remember the source. I am now pregnant alhamdulilah and I would like to verify this information as I cannot find anything in my Islamic literature.
Is true that dua is accepted during childbirth/labour? If so, please can you provide any basis.
Q: Is it permissible to sell a children's blanket which will have some decorations, a name on it (e.g. Zain) and with it will be "Allahuma bismika Amooto wa Ahyaa"?

Q: How can we make sure that our children do not apostasize from Islam as we know that atheism and liberalism is rapidly spreading? What can we do about it at an individual level?
Q: I read that it is not an obligation for a husband to pay for his wife's medical bills, and that she must pay for them herself. How can a woman who has not gone to college or worked outside the home due to following Islamic rules get a job that will pay for her medical bill while also being sick? I do not understand how a Muslim women are supposed to cover their own medical expenses when Islam has discouraged them from working their whole lives?
Q: When a woman is pregnant she usually has an ultrasound at each visit. Will it be permissible to keep the baby scan and show others? Does it fall under the same catergory as taking a CT or ultrasound scan of any part of the body?
Q: Because of my job I have been transfered to another city. Since I am married, my wife is back home.
My question is how long can one stay away from his wife without craving any sexual intimacy with his wife? Like for how many days/months. What does Islam says about it? As I live far away from her so it will take time to go back home.
Q: My question is in regards to my obligations to my parents. I am 26 years old and I have always respected my parents, loved them and still do. I am ready for marriage but my mother keeps putting obstacles on my way and she doesn’t want me to get married. She already said yes to a proposal with lots of hardships. She always says you’re going to have bad luck, you’re going to cry once you get married, you need to take care of your parents (although I have other sisters and brothers). She also doesn’t understand that one day her daughter will get married or at least she will have the right to get married but she always refuses and says everyone has taken care of their parents instead of marriage, why can’t you, please guide me what to do?
Q: What advice can you give to me being a person seeking a spouse the halaal way. A lot of pressure is put on me especially because I am currently 27 years old.
