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: If a man greets a woman, is it assalamu alykum or it is assalamu alyka?

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?

Q: Is it correct for a married woman in Islam to have male friends or a married man to have female friends and correspond with them one on one on whatsapp?

Q: Will you please give me a synopsis of ISIS or ISIL. Will you please also give some advise on how to view them and whether they are on the truth or on falsehood?

Q: Is watching of animals mating permissible?

Q: Muslims are using whatsapp to send photos of themselves, their children, non Mahrams and people at weddings to others. Surely even the most basic Muslim must understand that this is unacceptable. Can Hazrat enlighten us, in order that we may understand the mentality, as to why Muslims would do such a thing? Do they not love Allah? Are they not afraid of Allah?

Q: There is a cat who frequently stays in our car porch and often release stool and urinates in there. We try to drag her off ensuring that she does not get hurt, but she comes again and again. Moreover, she often gives birth to her babies that hampers us. If we hit her without injuring her just to let her go away, are we committing a sin?

Q: I think there is a Hadith which speaks very harshly of people who take their lives - that they will go to jahannam and if am not mistaken no ghusl is done for them. But what about people who suffer from mental illness and this causes them to take their lives? Are they too viewed harshly in our Shariah? Jazakallah for taking the time to consider my question?
