Nikaah & Marriage Issues

Illicit behaviour

Q: If a man keeps bad faith for his sister in law although, he did not practically commit anything, but shows his interest in her verbally while communicating with her. Does this effect his nikaah in anyway?

Touching one's mother in-law with lust

Q: An accident occurred in bus journey some years ago, that is: my mother in law's seat was beside my seat. She was feeling ill because of some illness but I was feeling lust/desire but not highly exited. Then I probably touch her (not her private part). But I was mentally addicted by shaitan’s waswasa. She didn't know this was my situation. I had no idea before about marriage, mahrams and hurmat-e-mushara. After I came to know about hurtmat-e-musaahara, I repented and made Towba to Allah Ta'ala. Now I am very alert about shaitan’s waswasa. But mentally I am worried about that accident. Now my wife would be lawful? I have one daughter. Please clearly advise me.

Breastfeeding one's step son

Q: I have a question about my step son. What does Islam say about breastfeeding a step son (he is my husband's son, his mother has left this child in our custody). If I am not wrong, every child has a right to be breastfed according to Islam. So as a stepmother is it permissible for me to breastfeed him? Is it sawab or gunaah?

Performing a Secret nikaah and thereafter re-performing the nikaah

Q: My daughter received a wedding proposal. We have accepted, but the problem is the boy can only marry her when he has completed his studies [1 year's time]. The kids want to see one another. Can we have a contractual nikkah now, no hankie pankie, but just spend time in parents presence, then when he can earn a living have another nikkah and they can now live as man and wife Insha Allah. What can you advise mufti. We don't want the kids to do zinnah/fitna and we understand that the boy wants to finish his studies, both sides of the parents can't afford to maintain the new couple now. Please advise.
