Q: What is the satr for a Shaafi male?

Q: My face is unsymmetrical. One side of my face is droopy than the other. I know in Islam it’s forbidden to get injections/surgery without medical reason but would I be allowed to get my cheeks lifted for this reason?

Q: How should I treat my patrilateral cousins? We have a joint family system, so my cousins live in the same house as mine. Is it okay to not wear a veil in front of them, mixing with them and talking politely with them?

Q: I came across a fiqh ruling that employing one's parents is not permissible. Is this ruling absolute, or is it OK if one gives one's parents a respectable position in the firm and a high salary?

Q: Given that taking a photo of a person is prohibited, and so is looking at the opposite gender, which of the two options below would be a lighter sin:

1. A mahram taking the photo and thus avoiding the sin of going to a non-mahram to take a photo, but the mahram is now doing a prohibited thing (i.e. taking the photo).

2. Going to a professional photo studio where the photo will be taken by a non-mahram. In this situation the mahram avoids the sin of taking the picture, but this causes an interaction between non-mahram individuals.

Which of the two is the better option?

Q: I am the owner of a jewellery shop that is located in a market where there are no more sellers of jewellery and my shop has gold in it. I wanted to know if Shari’ah allows placing a CCTV camera in a shop where there is a lot of risk of heists so by placing a camera I can observe what’s going on in the shop.

Q: A few days ago I was watching a documentary on YouTube about the king of Egypt named Tutankhamun. In this video, the youtuber said that after the death of this king, whoever passes by the mummy of this king, they died after few days. After this people started calling this mummy cursed.

Now some people commented and were asking that they are also in danger or not after they saw this video.

Also, in the video they showed the real pics of this mummy. I know that there is no concept of superstition in Islam. My question is that is this coincidence that people died after passing this mummy ? Not all the people died but some. People feel frightened because they saw real muumuy pics.
