Nikaah & Marriage Issues

Listening to one's husband

Q: If my mother forbids me but I almost convince my husband that I will do hijama, then is it permissible for me to do it? I don't live with my husband yet but soon we will be living together and I have an illness which can break our marriage and of course my mother doesn't know about this illness. And I have many other illnesses. So can I go without my mother's permission if my husband gives me permission?

If my husband again forbids me after getting convinced, can I go?

Looking at frightening pictures during pregnancy

Q: I recently found out that I am pregnant alhamdulilah and read the following on a website:

“During pregnancy frightening pictures of deformed children or animals should not be seen. One should look at beautiful children, flowers and should smell beautiful fragrances.”

I am an occupational therapist and daily interact with those who have various physical and mental disabilities whom I try to help by providing therapy so that they are able to engage in everyday activities independently.

Should I therefore stop working and providing therapy while I am pregnant and will I it affect my baby?

Using sex toys

Q: I have some doubts about some sex toys. My wife loves foreplay and for that I bought a love egg vibrator (internal) and a g spot vibrator (partially internal). Now I want to know if thats allowed? Please note that this is not a substitute, it's only for foreplay.

Will parents be sinful for not giving their children a proper upbringing?

Q: Someone told me that if parents don’t do proper upbringing of children they will be held accountable for it, but everyone is accountable for himself, how do I reconcile between that?

Also if parents are sinful if they don’t teach about a sin to a child and he does it, someone told me that parents won’t be sinful if they don’t directly guide the child to that particular sin, but they will be held accountable for not guiding them. Is it correct?
