Q: Is my view point good or extremists? I never ask about what the bride to be will wear on her wedding day as here she wears fancy clothes infront of na mharam people, which I totally disagree with.

Q: I wanted to ask if it is haraam or permissible for Muslims to go to public beaches with family and kids where there are uncovered men and women swimming. I live in Canada and my family members frequently go to lakes and beaches etc in summers and they say that as long as you can can guard your own eyes and not be tempted towards sins then there are no issues. If you have any issues then you should go to some Islamic country as here the kids see these things everywhere and you will have to control them then they will not go towards it more. Whenever I try to convince someone against it, all of them justify that other Muslim families also go there and where else should we go to in the hot summer. Can you kindly guide me about the clear Islamic rulings about this matter so I have a solid reason to believe and guide others around me.

ذهب الفقهاء إلى أنّ الاستماع إلى المعازف المحرّمة حرام , والجلوس في مجلسها حرام , قال مالك : أرى أن يقوم الرّجل من المجلس الّذي يضرب فيه الكبر والمزمار أو غير ذلك من اللّهو , وقال أصبغ : دعا رجل عبد اللّه بن مسعودٍ رضي اللّه تعالى عنه إلى وليمةٍ , فلمّا جاء سمع لهواً فلم يدخل فقال : ما لك ؟ فقال : سمعت رسول اللّه صلّى اللّه عليه وسلّم يقول : « من كثر سواد قومٍ فهو منهم ومن رضي عمل قومٍ كان شريكاً لمن عمله » . الموسوعة الفقهية الكويتية
