Nikaah & Marriage Issues

Q: I am officially going to get engaged with a guy on april 9. I am not happy with this engagement and don't dare to speak about it with my parents. Please advice me.

Q: It will be 1 year in May since I done my nikah. During this time my husband still has not given me my Mahr. We both live in different city's but he travels every weekend to spend some time with me. During this whole time he has not provided anything for me e.He has never bought me anything since we have been married and I have bought him endless things and also borrowed him money which I have asked back for. He still hasn't given it back. He owns his own business so he is not short of money. It really upsets me that it's going to be almost 1 year and he still hasn't given me my mahr. Please advice me on what I should do?

Q: Is getting married the sole way of being an ummati of Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam)?

Q: Can someone carry a baby whose hair is yet to be cut?

Q: Is it haraam for a couple to sleep in a separate room?

Q: If a husband does not give enough money for spending at home e.g. groceries, shopping, rent, credit card bills, etc. and because of that situation every time there is a fight between the couple and this affects the kids as well, so what should the wife do to take care of the kids and house. The husband has alot of money for other expenses but he is not bothered about his family.

Q: If a husband made an unnecessary restriction on his wife to meet her relatives because of jealousy, is it permissible for the wife to agree to this decision. In other words, she does not want to stop meeting with her relatives (because this is not part of deen, just because of his jealousy)?

Q: I was sitting and reading Quraan and thoughts about hurmate musaahara came to my mind. I'm really scared to shake my father hands. I don't have no feeling for him but the thought comes now that is my step mums  and dads nikah valid? I was sitting and reading Quraan and this thought and image came in my mind that I was young, in my teens probably, and my dad was lying down and he had on a lungi.Probably the lungi was open and I was sitting by the leg side and from the bottom, when he widened his legs I could see the testicals. Does my step mums nikah break with dad? I can't even remember exactly but I'm not even sure if i saw the testicals or penis, but obviously I won't have no lust for him.I don't think there was even lust but I'm just getting these thoughts if dads nikah is valid.

Q: Is it established anywhere that when a baby is born that the fathers sister needs to give out something? Many times you find people give out sweet platters to family members when a child is born. Is this practiced in Islam or is it just customary?

Q: I was married before and have a son who was born within my marriage and now I am divorced and would like to remarry. However I have no relationship at all with my eldest brother who supposed to be my wakeel, as he does not acknowledge me and he even calls me a Kaafir infront of people. He always insults me infront of others. He does not greet me back when I greet him and he is also someone that had been for hajj and prays 5 times a day. He is my fathers eldest son from his first wife and I am the youngest daughter of the 2nd wife. Both my mother and our father passed on. My question is if I would like to get married, do I need his permission since I have already been married, as I am trying to be the better person but he does not allow me to as I have now decided to keep my distance from him.
