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. I am sure that all men have this kind of urine before sex or after seeing some sex or woman but my question is if that water or urine come out, can I do zikar? If not then what to do? I love zikr, istighfaar, etc, but that is a big problem for me.

Q: Can I make health videos on youtube in which I use picture slide show. I change my voice and show various benefits of natural foods. I have to put ads to make some earning. Is the money halaal or not?

Q: I dislike pictures of animte objects because I know it is haraam. I usualy save pictures of hadeets and recipes and Duas on my phone. I was over taken by my nafs and saw a dress that I liked that was emailed to me. I decided to keep that picture as I can show the dress maker. The woman wearing the dress isn't modest as her top part is open. I won't make such a dress as I will make it in a modest way. My question is when I go to my pictures on my gallery on my phone all the pictures show on the screen together so the picture of the girl in the dress is next to a hadeeth picture that I have on my phone and it is all exposed on the same screen. I thought it was disrepectful but left it for a while. Now I really regret what I did. I deleted the picture but have I disrespected the Hadeeth in anyway and is that kufr?

Q: Is video calling (skype) halaal?
