Q: A company that was founded and currently owned by a Muslim has the name 'Hyperion.' In Greek mythology, 'Hyperion' is the name of a child between the Sky and Earth deities. This is a formal definition of the word 'Hyperion': "Hyperion is a Titan and a son of Uranus and Gaia. He is married to his sister Theia and has three children - Helios, Selene and Eos. The name Hyperion means "he who goes before the sun" and may have arisen because he was sometimes thought of as the sun." ["Hyperion." Encyclopedia Mythica. 2015. Encyclopedia Mythica Online.] Hence, the name of this Muslim-owned company has the same kufr-shirk connotations as Nike. Please advise:
(1) Is it permissible to utilize the services of a company with such a name? They provide online courses in computer programming and similar services.
(2) Is it permissible to be employed in such a company?

Q: I personally feel so guilty when I eat good foods and wear good clothes and live according to my comforts when I see those African kids dying of hunger and thirst. Will Allah Ta'ala ask us about them? What should be our policy in this matter? I mean can we eat and wear what Allah Ta'ala has given us or we should live very zaahidana life and feed those hungry people? I can't be peaceful and eat and drink when I see those hungry people who are near to death but how can I feed them all. Please mufti saheb advise me in this regard what should be the stance that I should adopt. Has Allah Ta'ala made lot of people struck in poverty to test people those who are well off?
