Q: Does reading ones lips in a video count as eavesdropping?

Q: A person had a dream that their whole family was in Madinah Shareef and certain things took place. They informed a Maulana of this dream and the Maulana replied that the person will soon go to Madinah Shareef. I am aware that our aqeedah is that only Allah knows matters of the unseen and of future events. Therefore are we to believe that the Maulana is just giving an indication of what the dream could lead to based on what has been told to him, but the Maulana cannot say that it will certainly happen 100% without a doubt?

Q: At a soccer match on 20th February 2015 fans of a Saudi Arabian soccer team by the name of Ittihad FC 'sang' the nasheed "Tala Al Badru Alayna," and held up a scarf saying: "On Messenger of Allah my beloved." Muslims are getting excited by this, saying MashaAllah. Are these actions of the fans of the fans and the subsequent reaction of Muslims justified? If it is not, would you be kind enough to explain why?

Q: Is a person allowed to lie to hide his sins?

Q: A few months back before I became baaligh I masturbated and semen came out. It just appeared and it did not shoot out. I took it as though I was baaligh and after that whenever I masturbated semen just appeared. It did not really shoot out. Ever since I did not have a single wet dream. I am not sure whether I have wet dreams as my semen does not shoot out. My penis is still really small but I am 15 years old. 1. Did I become baligh at that time when I first masturbated? 2. Is salaah made as an imam accepted? My penis is still small. What should I do. Alhamdulillah I did not masturbate for 3 months and I don't think I had a wet dream either. Please answer everything in detail.

Q: Is it permissible to listen to the voice of a non-mahram female? Often, there is a female reading the news on the radio. Can one listen to this or should one switch it off?

Some people claim that the Sahabah (May Allah Ta'ala be pleased with them) would ask Hadhrat Aa'isha (Radiallahu Anha) rulings and learn from her. Therefore, the presence of female presenters on Islamic radio stations is fine. Is this justified?
