Q: I bought a shirt that said “godfather” for my cousin without realizing that I am actually buying it for him and realized afterward and was a mistake.

Q: I would like to ask that if a husband with a ball pen or marker makes a love sign or writes something or draws an inanimate picture on the body of a wife, will that be counted a tatoo.

Q: A person likes to wear smart and matching clothes, e.g. kurta, jacket, socks and shoes. At the same time he desires that people should praise him because of his clothes and gets happy when people say that you are looking very smart today.

Q: I wanted to ask a question regarding the dressing of women in their own homes. In my house we have our own gym area where me, my mother, and sisters exercise.

Is this allowed Islamically if there is no fear of fitnah?
