Q: I left my home due to toxic and unjust family matters that were affecting me and my wife emotionally and mentally. I rented a home not too near not too far from my parents, and everyday I go to my parents house to do any work they want, as my father is a paralysis patient. Everyday I give him a massage and bath him and simultaneously listen to hurtful comments and smile and not reply so the atmosphere don't get more tense. Am I doing right or wrong and will any curse of my parents for me to Allah affect me?

Q: The question is related to the bacteria used in a probiotic. 

Many years ago, a one time collection using an oral swab - like how a covid test is done - was obtained from a living infant. The bacteria was then isolated, identified, purified and mass produced after this single collection. 

The bacteria in this specific probiotic do not contain any human material or DNA. Bacteria don't come from humans. It is a separate entity so to speak. They are not part of the human body. 

Is it permissible to consume this medication?

Q: Is it permissible for the son in law to hug his mother in law if she is not old?
