Q: If someone repented from a sin, and then in the future was thinking about the sin they committed and took pleasure in the enjoyment if the sin they once committed, do they have to repent once again?
Q: When I was a teenager I used a picture and name of some other girl in my school and pretended to be her. I spoke to one boy in my school and we spoke inappropriately. I felt guilty and deleted it. This was years before I started praying and fasting but I still feel so guilty for the girl who’s picture and name I used.
I paid sadaqah in her name and I asked Allah Ta'ala for forgiveness years ago. I still feel upset and disgusted at myself. I dont believe I can contact the girl, and even if I could, I dont believe I would be able to tell her.
Is there anything else that I have to do to absolve myself?
Q: I'm a male who recently joined a gym, but was ignorant to the fitnah prevalent. There are men who walk around completely naked in the change rooms and with shorts when working out (satr exposed), music blasting from speakers, and women walking around shamelessly. To avoid many of these vices there are some precautions I can take:
1. Avoid entering change rooms (however I can still see their satr outside the change rooms)
2. Use earphones to avoid the music (or at least blur it out)
3. Go at times when it is quiet (however I haven't been able to find a time where it is completely empty).
Although taking these precautions, I still feel in my heart that I am being disobedient to Allah Ta'ala and it would be better to cancel my membership.
N.B. I can take up running or jogging, but I do not have any proper equipment to tone my body (the equipment is expensive), and I have not come across any male only gyms in my locality.
1. 'The one who adds to the numbers of a people is counted as among them, and the one who is pleased with the wrong of a people will be regarded as a partner in their actions.' (Ithaaful Khiyaratil Maharah #3297)
By going to the gym, will I be counted as among the disobedient?
2. Am I correct in saying the gym is a place of disobedience?
3. Should I cancel my membership and find other ways of doing exercise?
4. If I accidentally look or hear something impermissible, then would I be blameworthy for going to a place like this?
5. Does Mufti saheb have any advice or suggestions?

Q: What is the shariah perspective about: hating the sin, not the sinner. Is it applicable in all contexts?
Example: When the sinner promotes his sins and believes it to be honourable and that he is entitled to advertise and perpetrate it, is it obligatory to hate such an illegitimate deviant?
Q: When we help others or show kindness towards others, what intention should we have? Shall we help others out of the goodness of our heart or help others because this is what God wants us to do? Do we get rewarded by God if we help others because its good thing to do?
