Nikaah & Marriage Issues

Q: I did zina with a girl and she is now pregnant. We are getting married now. Will the baby be halaal or not after nikaah?

Q: Was this nikah valid?

The Imam told the bridegroom clearly to many witnesses in the masjid that ‘do you accept so and so’ upon which the bridegroom mumbled a few words in Arabic (as the bridegroom was a Talib Ilm so probably wanted to say the Arabic phrase). The mumbling could be heard by the audience.

Does it matter if the audience didn’t understand what was being said by the bridegroom?

Q: Is it halaal to meet my wife before rukhsati after nikaah?

Q: In which month should we do nikaah according to hadeeth mubarak? Imam Saheb of our masjid say that nikaah is graceful in month of Shawwal, Jummah day, after Asar.

Q: I am 17 years old. My mother has passed away last year and I am living with my mamo and nano. I am totally burdened to them. My sister got married last year. They want me to also get married.

Q: Can a Muslim boy marry a non-Muslim (Hindu) girl after her accepting Islam?

Q: I’m a 54 year old widow for 5 years. I recently made nikah (alhamdullilah). Our nikah was done accordingly to sharia ruling, but we didn’t sign any register. We’re not worried about it either. But many people say now we were supposed to sign a register. Is that really that important?

Q: Different "Rasam o Riwaj" on weddings like "mehndi, band baja, bhangra, music" are sinful activities. If we performing wedding in Muharram and Safar, then the sin of these activities remain same or higher?

Q:

1. I have been in a secret nikaah for 10 years. As such, we didnt do walima. My immediate family now know about my nikaah. Is it possible to do a walima so long after a nikaah?

2. Also, according to my husband he says that because I'm a secret wife, I have no right to inheritence according to Islam. Kindly confirm/clarify.

3. I must point out that 5 years ago, his first wife learnt about us. She was devastated but wanted to meet me. She has accepted his nikaah to me but insisted that the nikaah must still be kept a secret and set specific rules for us. So...is our nikaah still a secret one and is it justifying for her to set such rules and ask that the nikaah still be kept a secret?

Q: I have psoriatic arthritis. It gets worse after each pregnancy. After my 2nd child (I have 2), the bones in my feet and knees have become bad so I can only read salaah while sitting on a chair. I can't go on my knees at all as it causes excruciating pain and I can't wake up. In my case, would I be allowed to tie my tubes after a 3rd baby?
