Q: Previously I asked about looking at digital photography and the answer was it is impermissible. So now, as a person who watches it often on YouTube for various ilm and also for research and enjoyment, how do I give it up? It’s not that easy to just give it up overnight and as a person who video calls often, what are some advices for me to stop this habit?

I’m not in a situation where I am watching any women or anything, it’s generally some reviews by men or bayaans and lectures.

Q: Is there any hadith in which Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said that if a person dies while listening music then don't go to his or her funeral?

Also send me the authentic hadith reference if it exists.

Q: I used to badmouth my husband and his family infront of my siblings. He read my messages (was doing it for many years) and insulted my family infront of his family. Now he wants me to cut ties with my family. I have two kids what should I do?

Is it permissible to cut ties with family if your husband enforces you to?

Q: If someone is stung by a scorpion, should we recite Surah Fatiha on him as mentioned in the hadith?

My question is that should we take him to hospital after reciting Surah Fatiha?

Q:

1. Are English Islamic nasheeds permissible?

2. If there are no musical instruments used but rather the "mouth" is used to imitate the musical instruments. Is this permissible?

Q: What are some reasons behind someone feeling jealous so easily? And how can one change their mind to gratitude and self-satisfaction?

If someone continously feels jealousy unintentionally when they are trying to remove it repeatedly, and they still feel heart hardening, is this still jealousy? I feel it severely maybe because of arrogance or wanting praise and recognition.

Is there any difference between envy and jealousy in Islam?

Q: My dad is late (may the Almighty grant him jannat). He has left behind 2 sons and 2 daughters. The eldest son lives with his father in law.

After mummy's iddat, it was her desire to perform umrah and her second son took her Alhamdulillah. The elder son wants to take my mother, his wife and his father in law, who is also a widower, for umrah. Will it be permissable for my mother to travel like this in the company of his father in law?

Q: Should we only rely on spritual medicines like zam zam, honey, etc. and not take medicines? I don't know why I think due to my weak faith that what happened if I don't get shifa and I only think of using medical medicines. Am I committing kufr?

I heard the Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) used both. Did he always use then in a combined form of both spiritual and physical medicines?
