Q: There's something lately bugging me a lot. I'm a developing artist. I am going to pursue my career in arts, and I've been told by my many art teachers that drawing anatomy isn't properly forbidden until I researched myself hadiths related to it. Now I feel quite hesitant towards drawing faces, I've always been really good at drawing human features. And might also face consequences in future where I'll have to face drawing anatomy. What I should do? It's something not making me happy yet also I love arts. Even if from now on I try to avoid making faces, what about the ones I have made before?

Q: I am living in Saudi and I am from Pakistan. I often call my wife through imo or skype. Sometime I feel a lot of sex and often I see some sex urine from me not urine but like urine white colour.
