Q: My question is on the validity of Nikaah. Is the nikaah valid by mere confession between a boy and a girl that they accept each other as husband and wife? without any supplication or dua ?and without anybody's permission? And also what will be the kaffara if they are doing so?
Q: My question regarding my husband's second marriage? Although Islam gave permission for that. But what if wife doesn't him to do that act?
Q: I need your help and advise regarding shia Sunni marriage. I am a Sunni. I know there are various types of shias and some of them constitute kufr. I want to ask you that if a shia who has the same Qur'an majeed as ours only the pronunciation is a bit different, he respects the 3 khulafaa-e rashdeen too other than Hazrat Ali, doesn't believes in anything that constitutes kufr for example giving hazrat ali (ra) the same status as Allah (naosobillah), saying that Muhammad (saw) mistakenly became the last prophet, the list goes on. Everything is almost same except for a few differences that we all know for example a bit varied way of salaah, attending majalis, regards the ahly byt etc. In other words according to me, I don't see anything that constitute kufr or is considered as a high deviation expect for difference of opinion as mentioned above. But in our kalimah after LA ILLAHA ILLALAH MUHAMMADUR RASOOLALAH he adds Aliwaliullah. Something with only this intention that Ali is the wali of Allah and our imam. Is it permissible to marry him? Because I heard that adding to the kalimah can also make a person out of the fold of Islam and thus marrying him would not be jaaiz from my side and I would be living in an unlawful relation. But having said that, I also believe that the intention is what matters more than actions as our prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) mentioned this. And of the only intention of adding is that Hazrat Ali (Radiyallahu Anhu) was imam and they are his followers, then is the marriage jaaiz ?I would like to know your opinion. I know that its is disliked to marry them, but would the marriage be jaaiz or not that's my only concern right now.

Q: I am thinking about marrying a woman who has a son already from a different person who is a sikh. I know its not allowed to marry someone out of religion. But the person who was married to her converted to Islam and did nikah but after couple of years he turned back to sikhism. Now the problem is where she stands at the moment. And she is also not divorced by him too. So can I still do nikah with her because its also not allowed to do nikah on top of the nikah as I know according to Islamic point of view. Moreover she is older than me almost 17 years but my intention is only to ease her problems and give her a happy life. Your advise will also help me a lot in this matter.
Q: Is there any Shar'i reason regarding nikah between a tablighi female and sunni male? Bear in mind the two are divorced with kids and feel they are suitable, but both are hanafi. No bidat involved only salaami on Thursday nights.
Q: After married to a second husband for 20 years, the wife declares that she is no longer married to the 2nd husband because she was never divorced from the first. The 1st husband reclaims his wife. In the 1st marriage, no talaq was mentioned. The husband just stayed away from the husband. Is this allow in sharia and was the second marriage valid. What's the ruling on this?
Q: I want to ask that if I can do marriage with younger sister of my wife, I mean second marriage. Islam allowed to do so or not please guide me in detail.
