Q: I am single with a 10 month old baby from a Pakistani. We live together but I don't want to get married because he is already married. I assisted him with his permit which allowed him to travel to Pakistan and he has now impregnated his wife. I asked him to leave as I no longer wish to be in a relationship and want to live my life as a pure Muslim woman. Is this wrong?

Q: I am 36 weeks pregnant with my 5th child. This baby and 4th baby were unplanned. I delivered a child one and half years ago with a c section and now again it will be a c section. It will be my third c section and its getting tough for me. I have searched online a lot and found out that tubal ligation is haraam. Unless the mothers health and life is at risk. Of course if I get pregnant again very soon, my health is going to suffer and I don't want to bear the pain of another c section again. So I just want your opinion if I can go for ligation? I don't want to commit a sin in my ignorance.

Q: I am a divorced woman and had a painful life with my ex for 28 years. I did not fight or argue with him because of his bad manners and the disrespectful words that he used all the time. He abused me mentally and emotionally until the divorce took place. He had passed away couple of years ago. I have all the bad memories with him, however my children are asking me to go to his grave to say that I have forgiven him and that I am free of all the pain and emotions that were because of him. They say that it will heal me and make me happy. I have verbally forgotton him in my duas many times but in my heart the pain is there. What should I do to clean my heart from him? I am thinking that why should I have to visit his grave while I was divorced and had no contact with him for a long time and still asking Allah Almighty to clean my heart. Your advice according to shariah will be appriciated for visiting his grave and saying those words.
