Q: A few years ago, I went for Hajj. May Allah Ta'ala forgive me, at that time (I can't remember if it was before or after Arafaat), I committed the terrible sin of masturbation. May Allah Ta'ala forgive me. What is the penalty for this? Also, does that act break ghusl? I doubt I made a ghusl after I committed that act. May Allah Ta'ala forgive me.
Q: A musafir offers 4 rakats Isha namaz after Maghrib salah at muzdalifa behind an imam who offered only 2 rakats (not sure if he was musafir or muqeem as few people offer qasr even muqeem) due to confusion but later once he comes to know, he offers 2 rakats Isha namaz alone. Is the namaz okay or not?
Note: He offered the sunnat and witr after the 2 rakats of Isha salah.
Q: Is it permissible for a person to perform Hajj-e-Badal for a na-mahram?
Q: When I was performing Hajj, in mina, muzdalifah and throughout that day where you stone shayateens etc... I noticed that before and after urination wadi has come out of my private part. I am also sure that wadi touches the ihraam which means that my ihraam may also be not clean during that time. I am worried that my hajj may not have been accepted or may be I have to pay for damm (hajj penalty)?
Q: I performed Hajj this year, Alhamdulillah. We were a group of five, out of which two women were on wheelchair. So we left Mina after praying Fajar on 12th zilhajj. Did Tawaf e Hajj and went straight to azizia, the men came back to jamarat but the women did not. Men pelted jamarat for women as their wakeel. Is the Hajj completed for women? (We did stay whole 12 zilhajj night in Mina).
Q: I heard that embracing one another on the occasion of the two Eids is not permissible in Islam. Does this apply to embracing the haajis on their arrival?
Q: Is it permissible that after copmleting umrah, wife can cut her hair to come out of ihraam or only mahram (husband) can cut her hair?
Q: Alhamdulillah a few years back Allah had afforded me with the opportunity to perform umrah. We flew from Jhb to Madina, and from Madina then took a taxi to the miqaat to tie ihraam and proceed to perform umrah. However while flying we flew over the miqaat, and I was wondering, were we supposed to tie ihraam on the plane before landing in Madina.If yes, then should dumm be paid?
Q: Can we drink Zam Zam water while standing?
Q: I went on Umrah and while in the state of ihram I unintentionally washed my hands with soap and at that time I completely forgot that I am in a state of ihram. What should I do now?
