Miscellaneous

Q: Where I'm working, I know the people quite well. I've been working here for about 3 years or so now. 

They give me duties to do, example, to take their mother or wife or sister to go shopping or to transport them from one place to another. 

I personally don't like doing that because they are non mahram. My wife gets angry with me when I do those things and she doesn't speak to me. 

If I do tell my boss that I can't do those duties, I know personally they will fire me or treat me differently although they are Muslims. What should I do?

Q: My children's father is addicted to drugs. 

I do not feel comfortable with them spending time in his company & I'm advising them to help him with food only if he gets sick as I feel they are enabling his habit. He manipulates them to feel sympathy for him & uses them for money, transport, food etc. Am I incorrect for doing this?

Q: What are the laws of Hijrah? 

If someone already moved to Turkey or Pakistan or South America with the intention of Hijrah, is he allowed to move back to his home country, like UK or South Africa?

Q: Can we visit and see the old monuments, forts and palaces with the intention to see their beauty and gain historical knowledge, especially the Mughal (Muslim rulers) architecture?

Q: What will happen if a person commits kufr but later forgets about it? 

Secondly, if you get bad thoughts about Allah Ta'ala and you feel the sensestion of happiness about it but you know thats bad, is this kufr too?

Q: How do I overcome doubts regarding complete forgiveness for all my sins when I sincerely ask Allah for forgiveness for all my sins and how do I build my hope in the mercy of Allah?

Q: Is there any specified time as to how long Qaylulah should be?

Q: I wanted to ask about what is the ruling on making funny videos using Islamic elements in it? I saw a video where a man asked two guys that what is their name. So the first guy answered that his name is Yunus. So the questioner said if you can recite the Surah Yunus then I will give you 100 dollars. The first guy failed to recite the Surah. When the questioner asked the second guy that what is his name. He said, my name is Kawthar and started smiling weirdly. It is like he lied about his name and chose the name of an easy Surah so he can get the money. 

So I wanted to know is it permissible to make such funny videos using Islamic elements? And what is the ruling on laughing at such videos?

Q: When a person takes a picture on WhatApp, if a person doesn't send it and presses back, the picture disappears. 

My question is, if you take a picture of an item to show someone and there's a logo on it and you remove the head on the logo before sending, is this permissible since the picture with the logo head is not accessible once you send it?
