Q: I understand that it is a sin to discuss one's sin with a friend due to it showing a lack of shame. What if I am the one who hasn't committed the sin, but it's my friend that is talking about matters that relates to his sins with me? How should I handle these conversations despite already trying to give da'wah? Do I get sins also for indulging or contributing to this conversation since it might be displeasing to Allah?
Q: Is keeping the feet towards the qibla sinful? In hajj many people keep their feet towards the qibla and sit there or recite Quran like this.
If someone has to read salah lying on the bed, doesn't he have to keep his feet towards qibla?
At the place of weekly talim I always have to sit at tashahud position keeping my back towards the qibla as the seating arrangement is like this, so many of our feet is towards the qibla. Do I suggest to them to change the arrangements?
Q: I have a relative of mine who has come here 7 years go, first as a visitor and than claimed asylum saying to the immigration that her husband has used domestic violence on her and her daughters just to stay in the UK. Her husband had agreed to put that claim in with her at the time. 5 years ago her husband has gone back to his country and had applied for a visa for the UK on a number of times and has been rejected because of the wife's claim of asylum. The daughters don't know who their dad is, one is 9 and the other is 7. Their mother is persistent to get the UK visa regardless how it's affecting her daughters. She is lying to stay in the UK and is getting support money too. Obviously her means of staying in the UK are nothing, just a British passport. What does Islam say about this?
Q: Please advise on passing remarks and hinting at daughter in laws in Islam.
Q: I spoke rude to a Muslim brother and he is my friend also and he felt insulted. After I spoke to him and said "please accord with me if I said anything wrong" and lastly I said salam... but he replied nothing. He did not even reply to my salam. Am I a culprit in front of Allah? If yes, what I have to do the next I see him?
Q: Someone mentioned that when one yawns then this is from Shaytaan and one should recite ta'awwuz.
1. Is this correct, and applicable all the time?
2. Should one recite أعوذ... Every time one yawns
3. Is there mention of this in the hadith, and what is the hadith.
4. Similarly with regards to yawning softly without making a noise, is this mentioned in hadith?
Q: I have been forced in making a kassam to something which someone confided in me! It is something un-Islamic which I think the person's parents should know about! Recently the persons parents asked me if I knew what this person was up to and I just acted like I don't really know anything. After I have made a kassam is it allowed for me to tell the persons parents?
Q: If I am guilty for a sin but it didn't affect a person and that person didn't know if I tried to do something bad with him. Can I ask forginess only from Allah without telling that person. If he didn't get any harm and he didn't know anything about my sin. Please advise
Q: I did a certain sin. Now somehow my friend came to know about it. If he asks me whether I committed the sin, how should I reply to him:
1. Cover up the sin
2. Always speak the truth.
Q: If a father says to his son "if it's true that you committed what I suspect you, May Allah curse you" and surely the son committed what his father suspected him (Though the father has confidence his son will never do that due to his (son's) good character). Now:
1. What is the ruling on that curse?
2. Is the son still a Muslim?
3. Can the son, despite being cursed pave his way to paradise?
4. If surely Allah cursed a person, he distanced him from his mercy, how could that son draw nearer to Allah's mercy.
5. The father is quite happy with the son as I write this, because he obeys whatever he asks him to do, not knowing the son is cursed by him. What is your advice to the son?
