Q: My husband and I both work and pay bills together. I feel that because I work as well he should be helping me with housework. I do the cooking and taking care of the kitchen and laundry and most of the ironing. It's just the cleaning the I need help with most times. And sometimes I want him to do his own ironing. What is the ruling in that? He seems to think it is a wife's duty to do all that work and I'm not fulfilling it. Is he right?

Q: If one is in a mosque and the person that leads the prayer makes masah over regular socks.

Q: My father were 4 brothers and 1 sister. As my grandfather expired at such a time where my father and his siblings were quite young, my father's eldest brother therefore took care of the family business. My grandfather owned a leather factory. Few years things were going well Alhumdulilah but later after the marriage of my father's eldest brother he deprived everybody else in the family except his mother of the income which was till now being generated from the factory. He said that because since so many years he was looking after the business therefore the factory was now his and nobody in the family was to put his claim anymore. My grandmother also supported him because she was getting her monthly expenditure from him. My father, mother and the rest of my uncles and aunt took the matter to the court but even there my eldest uncle did something because of which my parents had to withdraw the case. Since then, my parents were in a very bad financial condition and had to suffer a lot. Now the state of my family is like very hostile towards each other. My eldest uncle has now expired and his wife has taken over the business and we are still deprived of the income which is generated from the factory. This hurts my parents and many a times a fight ensues. The  daughters of my eldest uncle has abused my mother very badly and said things to her which was worst than the worst. Keeping all the situations in mind, what should we do now as we are not in talking terms with them but fear Allah's anger that if we break ties then Allah will be angry but being in talking terms with them is very tough as they even think that we are doing so in order to gain benefit from them which is not true. As they have abused my mother I just don't feel like being good towards them any more. What should be done in this case? And what is to be done with the factory thing? Don't we have any right over its income? Its been 25 years nearly since we have been deprived of our rights. 

Q: What is the explanation of this Hadith: “A dream is hanging on the leg of a bird, as soon as it is interpreted it happens as it was interpreted"? I have read about the meaning of this Hadith, they said if the dream is interpreted by an experienced scholar, it will happen. My question is in the word "as it is interpreted" (in the Hadith), if the experienced scholar or somebody who knows interpretation of dreams interprets his dream, will the dream happens as it was interpreted (as narrated in the Hadith)?
