Q: I have question regarding property distribution.

My father owns a house worth Rs 50 Lac.

I have contributed for about 6-7 Lacs in it.

I want to know how the above said property is distributed between:

My father, My mother, My bhabi ( my brother died 10 yrs back), My sister, My bhatigi (only daughter of my late brother) and myself (only son) now. Please mention the distribution share and percentage and also please mention if there is any hadith or verse which tells about the kind of property share to be distributed.

Q: I want to ask few questions regarding women's dressing in front of mahrams:

1. My friend told me that his mother wears a loose sleeveless nighty from chest to knee in front of her husband and children. In this nighty her breast is visible when she sits down or is working. He can see her breast but from stomach to knee her body is hidden.
2. He told me that sometime she didn't wear bra because of which her nipples are visible on her shirt.
3. Another thing he told me is that after taking a bath she wraps her body with a towel and comes out from the washroom and starts combing. Most of the time her towel becomes loose and her whole breast is visible.

I asked my friend why she does like this. He replied that it is allowed in Islam. Mahram males can see a woman's breast, neck , hair, thigh. But he also said that women can not show her body from stomach to knee and back. It is not allowed in Islam.

Is this true?

Q: The reason for my query is with regards to having sand of Madina sharif in ones possession. A family member came from umrah about two years ago and he gave me a small container with some sand that he brought from madinah sharif. 

A year later I learned that Hazrat Moulana Yunus Patel Saheb mentioned in one of his bayaans that the earth of Madinah sharif cries out if it is removed from the holy land and whoever has brought any sand from there should return it. I therefore would like to know if the sand I have should be returned as it was not collected by myself.

Q: My friend is faced with serious legal problems and will have to appear in court. What دعاء 's can she, family and friends read? Please advise.

Q: I am a student and I have my friends in my room who were my friend since my last 10 years but now we have some clashes and an extreme hatred have come between us. Now I have the power to remove them from my room. Now please tell me some reasonable solution? Also give me reference to the solution.

Q:

1. A person who has disability is unable to raise the feet up to the sink basin for wudhu so she gets a bucket of water, takes water from the bucket puts water on the right foot with the hand and the mustamal (used) water falls in the same bucket which has clean water, then she uses the same water for the left foot, the question is if musta'mal and clean water mixes together can it be used for washing the left foot?
2. In the above situation is the wudhu valid?
3. If the wudhu was not valid does the salah have to be repeated, which was prayed with the washing of the feet with mustamal (used) water and clean water mixed together?

Q: Fajr time I came out of washrum offered namaz then when I opened the book to recite surah yasin I felt some warm drops in my private parts. I thought that it was a waswasa and continued but after reciting I checked. There was very little moisture on my thighs and there were drops in my private parts which can be the result of water I used during istinja. I don't understand whether I was in wudhu or not?
