Q: I have a question about online reviews. I had a bad experience with one of the local Muslim mechanics. The brother fixed 2 problems in my car and after a few days both problems came back. I went to him again and he did something and it came back again. He also charged me just like any other non-Muslim mechanic in town. I thought it is just a bad experience with me and I just lived with the problem because whenever I took the car to him he keeps the car for few days and it is very inconvenient for me without a car.

I took my other car to the same mechanic because he is Muslim and I try to promote Muslim businesses then he fixes a few things in my other car and the same thing happened to this car as well. He replaces the compressor of the AC and when I tried it in summer it worked for only a few days.

I wanted to write a review about him online so others are aware of this before going there but I wanted to ask the question before writing a bad online review. (Does Muslim or non-Muslim matters in this case)

Q: Is it true that a person above 80 years old cannot make decisions about his property and now that property belongs to his heirs.

Q: I am reciting istighfaar and observing taqwah to get rid of my world problems like financial and other. Is this niyyat ok when reciting istighfaar and observing taqwah for these problems?

Q: I am doing istighfaar and observing taqwa and then it comes to my mind that I am doing istighfaar or taqwa so that my worldly things can fulfilled. If even we accept this notion what should we do to make it 100% clean and make the taqwa for Allah. My mind says that I am doing taqwa so that my problems can be resolved.

Q: I'm trying to find clarity on a situation where a brother got caught with something that was not his and in the end admitted to stealing it. The stolen item was returned and the brother refused to accept the punishment. So after he refused to accept the punishment, some brothers lured him into a room, beat him and robbed him of all his property, saying that it was sunah.

Insha Allah you can assist to either support their actions or to show them where they went wrong. 

Q: I am a 30 year old male. Sometime I have wet dreams during night. Is having wet dreams a sin since I have no control over it?

Q: I want to know if anyone going through extreme hate and humiliation, even if he did not do any wrong clearly. Is it the decree of Allah or is it a test? When does a person face humiliation and disrespect? 

Q: Can we use qur'ah (drawing lots) to decide?

For example: There were three hotel rooms in different floors. We were three families. So we put the names of the rooms on small pieces of paper and asked the the people to pick a paper and whatever room number he gets, he will have to stay in that room. Is it ok?

Can we apply the same principle in the other places?

Q: I was asked by a girl on WhatsApp to come to a place to commit zina with her. She told me that

* she will send a car to pick me up

* she will give me money of 25,000 if i did it for her

* she will book a five star hotel for me and told me its completely secret and no one will know

I resisted and told her that I will not do it. I also told her to fear Allah and I blocked her.

My question is that, will this come under getting rid of zina when a beautiful girl calls for it or is it only when a girl calls us home or to place where we are alone?

It was really difficult to resist my self but I did alhamdulillah. Will I come under those special people whom Allah doesn't ask hisaab kitaab? 

Q: If someone wants to settle permanently in a kuffaar country such as, US, Canada, Australia, etc. Is there any prohibition or discouragement in Islam for this?
