Respecting one's mother

Q: I have an 83 year old mother... She is terribly anti Deen and this infuriates me so I raise my voice to her and just today I said to her even though she is my mother "an enemy of Allah Ta'ala is an enemy of mine". She speaks the most despicable things about Deen and I dont know how to manage the situation anymore. We do read our Salaat and do all thats required of us as Muslims and its as if she waits for me to stand on my musalla then she performs even more by walking about the house screaming for me. Please advise.

False rumour going viral on social media

Q: I have received the following viral message

Zaroori Elaan, Madina Sharif ke Shaik Ahmed ne wasiyat nama bheja hai jis mein lika hai ke jumerat ko maine apne makan me Quran Sharif pak raka tha ki beend agaee aur main dekhta hoon ke, Mohammed Mustafa (Sallalahu Alaihi wasallam) tashreef laye. Farmaye ke is hafte 60 admi marenge, jis me koi imandar nahi tha. Bahut bura waqt aane wala hai, aurtein apne showhar ki khidmat nahi karti, aulad maa-baap ka kahena nahi mante, aurtein parda chord diya hai, aur maldar ghareeb ka khayal nahi karte.

Shaik Ahmed tum duniya ke logon ko samjhao Qayamat nazdeek hai, tauba ka darwaza band hojayega. Mohammed Mustafa (Sallalahu Alaihi wasallam) ne farmaye hai ki jo shaks wasiyat ko padkar us ko doosron tak pohonchayega Qayamat ke din us ki hifazat karoonga, aur us ke khandaan ko Jannatul Firdouse me jagah dilwaoonga, aur jo aisa nahi karega woh khuda ki is rahmat se mahroom rahega, guzarish hai ki jo is message ko forward karega to khuda, us ko malamaal kardega, kharazdaar is message ko batega to us ka kharaz adha ho jayega.

Shaik Ahmed ne farmaye hai ke jhoot ho to meri mout kafir ke haton se ho jaye. Jo insaan 1000 message bejega us ke dilki khawahish ek din ke andar poori hoogi, lekin jo admi aaj kal karke 26 din guzardega uska buhat nuksan hoga, is baat par yaqeen karke bombay shehar ke ek insaan ko 41 lakh rupaye mil gaye, dhanbad ke ek ricksha wale ne 740 message baat diya, usko 7 din ke baad mitti ke andar se sona ka matka mila, us ke baad carodpathi ban gaye. Ek gharib ghar ladka messege forward ki soch raha tha ke uski naukri lagaayee, bad me usne 1000 bar message forward kar diya ek aadmi ne jhoot samajhkar message delete kar diya, uska ladka margaya, ek aadmi ko message milte hi forward karne ko soch raha tha, laparwahi se usne ek mahina guzaardiya, uski biwi ka inteqal hogaya, aur kaam mein kaafi naqsaan hogaya. Dajtal gaon ke 4 aadmi milkar 140 logo ko message forward ki, unhe ek ghante ke andar 24 lakh ki lottery milgayee. Us ke baad who 4 aadmi ek Masjid banane ki sonch rahe hain har insaan se guzarish hai ke is message ko padkar na rake frndz is message par yaqeen karo yeh koi yeh mamooli baat nahi hai app bhi jaldi is message ko forward kare. 

I have received this message on whatsapp. Please can you tell me how true is it? Should we believe in these types of messages?

Soul of a person who committed suicide roaming the earth

Q: Is there any ruling that someone who committed suicide or accidental brutal death or anyone purposely killed him either ways, so their soul is roaming that place and makes hurdles to the passers and if it likes someone, it possesses the body. As this is a worldly talking that a person is been killed or died in accident or suicide...and he later possessed someones body....and troubles....so is this correct.... 

Showing good character

Q: So, one of my cousins accuses me of talking negative about her behind her back at the time we were good, I'm not that close to my cousins who live locally near me although I want to be, so I was close with this one cousin she accused me of talking negative about her behind her back and she didn't give me time to explain and ignored me, I never once talked negative about her behind her back, before she ignored me she finished the chat saying she wants to cut me out of her life forever, months later my parents tried to get her and me to start talking again , she then told me that someone said that I had been backstabbing her, i was shocked since I never talk to anyone in my family (meaning cousins) and I wouldn't talk about her behind her back anyway , I then asked her what did I "supposedly say about you" as in what did this person say to you that I apparently had said , I also asked her who said this about me, she said No I can't tell you because I'm the Quran it says that breaking a promise whether it is bad or good is haram , I then said why would you tell me that someone said that I said something negative about you behind my back yet you won't tell me what they said or who they are ? Is it a bigger sin to cover up for another persons sin and not tell the victim what has been said? How am I meant to get self justice for myself. Till now my cousins still ignore and now have been arguing with my brother "exposing sins"
