Q: I feel that it is quite easy to commit kufr if not being careful. I was debating a brother about birth control. I say that the Muslims should have as many children as possible to enlarge and strengthen the ummah. He said that quality is better than quantity and having less kids means each kid gets better resources. He then gave an example that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and his companions were able to defeat larger enemies. Here came the main point: I argued that “it was not because that Umar or Abu Bakr were smarter than Abu Jahl and other kaffirs in raw intelligence, but because Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) favored the Muslims against their enemies”. Basically I was saying that the “Sahaba were not smarter than the kaffirs in raw intelligence” but they won because they had the favor of Allah (Subahanhu wa Ta’ala). Is it kufr to say that “Sahaba were not smarter than the kaffirs in raw intelligence”?
Q: My toe was hit by a heavy thing falling down and it caused some blood to emerge within the nail. I heard that blood on the surface was pure and I washed the toe and did not think about it. Weeks later I thought about this again when I saw the dried up blood in my nail (Note: some of the blood was within my nail so I cannot remove it, otherwise I would need to remove my nail!) and I don’t know if that counts as pure or impure.
Q: I had received store vouchers because of my birth month and thus used them. I wish to know if this is acceptable. I don't have to spend a certain amount to use the vouchers. It's just an x amount.

Q: My haidh started on November 7. I was paak either on 14 or 15 November (I do not remember which, and my habit is 7-8 days). Today, on November 28, a little before Fajr, I started bleeding again. Is this haidh or istihaadah? Do I have to pray or not?
Q: I want to ask if one can perform 2 rakat nafl namaz of istikhara for multiple purposes. Like, if I want to marry a girl and want to know if she is good for me or not and at the same time I want to know if a job is good for me or not which I have applied for. If yes, how can one determine which (dream or inclination) is for which purpose?
Q: After every single namaaz can I do sajdah twice then make salaam and count it as sajdah sahw. I feel like my namaz isn't perfect that's why I do short sajdah sahw after every namaz.
