Q: My husband is having an affair with other women, which he refuses to break relations with. He is a very abusive man who abuses me emotionally, mentally and physically. We have 2 children together who have witnessed all the abuse. Do I have grounds for a divorce and what are they?
Q: Can you tell me some ways to increase my iman?
Q: I have been married for four years now. My husband has a problem abusing substances, when he gets involved with this activity he becomes a total different person. He doesn't give me money for food or for my and the kids essentials. He steals and sells anything in our home, sells the car
and if we are renting eventually we get put out and that leaves us either going to stay at his moms place or we have to separate, me staying at my parents and him at his. While busy with this substance, he commits zina as well then accuses me of committing zina and sends me disturbing texts. I know he is unfaithful because I get messages on his phone or people would tell me and he will deny until I presurise him to a point of admitting. He relapses every 4 or so months and for a period of 2 to 3 months, when he is not smoking this substance he is in jamaat, makes sallah 5 times a day and is a very good example for me and the kids. This is so confusing to me, its like I've married two different people, I do not know what to do, I feel I cannot be married to him any longer but I fear Allah so much so that I rather stay and live this confusing life. We havn't been living together for more than a year now because of this problem. He has and every time we get close to finding a place and moving in together he relapses. My parents are against the marriage and don't want me going back. I've spoken to him to seek help but every time he gets to his feet he assures himself and myself it won't happen again and if I keep bringing the subject forth he gets mad at me. He has been to several institutions but all with fail. What I want to know is do I stand on halaal grounds for a fasagh? He doesn't want me to but the pressure gets so much to me that I fall into deep depression.
Q: A person does an act of Sadaqah-E-Jariah with a corrupted intention. Maybe contributing to a Masjid, distributing a Deeni kitaab etc. Perhaps the intention was one of pride and show.
Q: I have it incredibly difficult. I do not know where my future will bring me. I have now waited about 7 months to get into the university. In January, there was a new class that started. but I still did not get admission to medical school. I have sent them emails and they have said that when some students quit they will be releasing new offers but only for some students (they have the list of them). I want this more than anything else. I want to do this for my parents I want them to be proud of me. But I feel that everything seems impossible and very difficult now. When I was in high school I had very good grades but at the end of the school year my grades went down. I do not know how, we complained but the school didn't help me. All my other friends got admission some in Norway and in other countries, they are studying and they are happy. They have a future. I have not told anyone this, not even my parents. I am a loser, I am not studying something. I have worked hard for this for so many years. School ends in June and I must wait two years. I can not waste so many years. Please how can my hajat get fulfilled? Any wazifa or dua I can do?
Q: I am running a computer business for the last 18 years alhamdulillah. It was going well but for the last 2 years it has been going slow. I am thinking if I should close down the business or what should I do please advise me.
Q: My friend and I wanted to marry each other. We used to like each other very much but under her parents pressure to keep Allah happy she is marrying someone else. But we both have promised each other that we will meet and live together in Jannah forever for the scarifices we are making for Allah's will. Is this possible?
Q: My son's wedding date has been finalized and both parties have agreed that we will just have one joint reception and split the cost two ways. However I am now experiencing problems whereby the brides family do not want to have the separation for males and females and instead want a mixed gathering as they say that immediately after the reception you will notice the mixing of the sexes outside the hall and my wife agrees with them. What advise can Mufti give me to take to my wife and the bride's family.
Q: How can a person who tries his best to keep away from sins convince himself that he is the most bad person in this world when he sees people
around him are sinning openly? I humbly request your advice in this regard so that I can have a pure heart free from all sort of roohani diseases like
thakabbur etc.
