Nikaah & Marriage Issues

Can a person with celiac disease get married?

Q: I love a girl and I talked to her parents. Next year we will be married insha Allah! Problem is that I have celiac disease, and in celiac disease people develop many other complications and I am getting some. I am just 27 or 28 yrs old. Is it a sin if I marry that girl or should I remain unmarried? I'll leave pain and suffering in someones life. I am really sad. I think I have lost all the haqq to be with someone. 

Doubts on hurmat-e-musaaharah

Q: Does humeraat e musaahara happen with just a quick touch? I was taking my baby from my father in law and could have touched his hand or it was my babies skin im not sure, and then the thought came that I am touching lustfully. I'm not sure if it was lustfull or not. This happens a lot. What can I do about it?

Position of Arabs over non-Arabs

Q: I am very confused about the position of Arabs over other races in Islam. The prophet himself said that an Arab is not better than a non-Arab, yet I also have heard that Arabs, as a whole, have been given a superiority over other races. How do we reconcile these two views? Could you explain exactly in what way Arabs are considered superior?

Does this superiority also exist with regards to religion - for example if two people are equally religious and one is Arab and one is non-Arab, is the one that is Arab more excellent in religion or more pious or more beloved to Allah?

Lastly, are Arab women not considered compatible with a non-Arab men in most scholars' opinions, yet all non-Arabs are considered compatible with each other. So, from what I understand this compatibility issue is not about cultural differences, because then non-Arabs would not be compatible with other non-Arabs of different races/cultures. So, what is the reason for the incompatibility between an Arab woman and non-Arab man? What is the evidence for this?

Girls father preventing marriage due to boy being from a different caste

Q: My question is regarding intercaste marriage. Me and the girl I like convinced our parents for intercaste marriage and everything was going well. Everyone agreed but a day before our Nikkah her father refused to do so because of her uncle. They convinced his father that its wrong and put trouble for all of us. Now everyone is willing to do this marriage but her father does not agree. Our Nikkah was not done and we faced challenges. We just want to ask if there is anything that we can do to convince her father to agree to this marriage?

Equality between wives

Q: My husband has two wives. I have read that a man with two wives is supposed to give them both equal amount of time. What does this equality mean because I think in todays lifestyle one man cant give time equally and its impossible.

An example is that last night my husband came home late, around 1am. So he gave me time from that time till around 10 am the next morning. Now with the other wife, he went to bed early around 9.30 pm and from my knowledge, he was awake till 12 am and Allah knows best how long.

I dont know but my question is the other night I got less time and the other wife got more time. What's the Islamic ruling on this. Is it permissible?

Divorcee adopting a child

Q: I have been divorced for 2 years and now I dont have any feelings to get married again. I have this thought in my mind that I should adopt an orphan baby girl and raise her as my daughter fulfilling all her needs and getting her married when she grows up. Can you please guide me on if this would be allowed in Islam? What would be my reward for adopting a girl and raise her and what would be the gunah of not marrying?
