Circumcision for new-Muslims

Q: This question is on behalf of a revert brother that is planning to get married. He would like to know what is the ruling on circumcision for a male revert to Islam in the light of Hanafi fiqh as well as Shaafi fiqh? What is the ruling of ghusl after relations with regards to not being circumcised? Would ghusl be valid if he is not circumcised? Any other advise for the brother would be accepted.

Wearing purda part time

Q: I like to know the ruling on a woman wearing niqab on a part time basis. Say for instance when she knows she will be around non mahram men in a work environment. Will she be rewarded for covering up at those times. A friend has told me this is permissable. Please let me know.

Charging for ruqya

Q: I need help as I have been affected by sihr. Alhamdulillah Allah has helped me through some very difficult times in my life. I heard about ruqya and when I searched and found a group of people in SA who does this but they charge money. Is this genuine and are you allowed to charge money? I am very weary of most people as I believe that they use Jinn to trick people into believing their "healing" powers and it is also detrimental to ones Imaan.

Wearing sarees

Q: I would like to know why Muslims can't wear saree? Saree is Indian cloths and most Indian women wear saree. Why can't Muslims wear saree? Whats wrong with saree? I heard from someone even if the saree is fully covered with no skin showing of a woman it is still not allowed. Why? Most people in India are Mulims and wear saree, does this means they are sinning? We wear lots of other jewellery and cloths which are from India and made in india are they also forbidden to use? Why so much racism in Islam?
