Q: I have a question regarding beheshti zewar... In the introduction there is something written about prediction of the birth of Ml. Ashraf Ali Thanvi and he should be named Ali etc. And his brother would be evil. Is this true? Isn't it shirk? No one knows about the future except Allah.. So what about this story?
Q: I've suffered from depression, and I've realized I am still depressed. I am 19 and I live in Spain. All my friends and the other teens I know spend the summer in the swimming pool, in the beach and traveling (my brother who is 18 too), but I can't. Because I am a Muslim, I can't wear bikini so I can't spend time with them in the sea, and what's more I can't swim (which is my favourite hobby). Since I've had the period, I've spent every summer alone in my bedroom dreaming about going to swim with my friends. I love Islam but I want to wear a bikini, swim with my friends and spend the night with them as well. I am unhappy now. I've thought about doing it, but I can't because my parents are going to realize it since my skin will get darker if I do it. And I can't ask them If I can do this, because for a Muslim, that will be one of the worst things ever for a father to let his daughter wear inmodest clothes. I am a good person, I study at college and I've never hurt anyone. The last year I tried to commit suicide, but I decided to wait and I've realized the wait wasn't worth it. I know this is the last summer I am going to be here because I've decided to commit suicide to stop the pain I am feeling every day. Every teen is enjoying the summer, while I am spending it crying and I am tired of it. I just wanted to ask you what you think, can a Muslim girl wear a bikini in this situation (if she doesn't wear it she could commit suicide)? Thanks and sorry for explaining my life.

Q: Few days back my brother who is engaged had hijama done, at first only water oozed out and then slowly the dirty blood, the doctor said he had effects of jadoo as there was not much blood in his body and he lay cold and sweating after hijama.

Q: Our relatives mostly are hypocrites. Sometimes they openly say that they worship snakes etc... And also mention that they have jinn's (supernatural powers), they say that they instruct that power to do work and it will happen for real! They know that Alhamdulillah we will never go in these acts what they are doing, there is always like a competition between them and us, although we read muawwazatein, aayatul kursi, aamanar rasulu, sure kahf for protective purpose. After we meet them, at least one of us suffers severe headache, and bone pains and back pain like our bones are crushing and muscles are twisting. It happens for the entire night. The next day we will be normal. Also, they don't have manners, before they come to our home (without informing us), any member of our family opens the door for any work, they just come into the room and sit down. They sometimes give us a warning that "see that one hadn't obeyed us and now he is suffering from this disease" they always warn us like that, before they arrive or after they go from our home, my parents always fight (very harshly). I ask you for a powerful dua from the Quran and hadith which resist's all the bad powers from the hypocrites and their supernatural attackings.
