Tahaarat

Q: Is it permissible to tan elephant skin?

Q: Can one wear an amulet with Quranic verses on it in the toilet? How can you explain to some one who insists that they must wear it all the time, even in the bathroom?

Q: If a boil busts somewhere on your body and you only find out after the blood has dried on your clothing. If there is little blood, then do you consider that the the blood would not have flown out of the the wound and that you still have wudhu?

Q: I am currently abroad and I have been doubting everything recently. I was recently told that theres a potential of lard (pig fat) being used in the making of bread here in some of the bakeries. My friends eat that bread because they are non Muslims.

My question is, if they were to eat the bread which is a dry entity and then touch me with it after they are done, would I become najis, or does impurity only travel through wetness? 

Q: I was wondering if you can make wudhu in the shower while having a shower (naked) without being in the state of janabah? If so then what are the steps for it?

Q: Is it permissible to make masah on thick hard leather ankle length shoes? E.g.: Bronx

Q: I had the bad habit of masturbation. After doing this act I never walked 40 steps or urinated. A clear liquid came out, is ghusal nessacary?

Q: For ghusal to be complete, water should reach every part of the body. If a female is not wearing ear rings, how should the water reach inside that part of the skin of the ears? Someone told me that a female should use a pointed thing like a needle,or something and make it wet and put it inside the pierced part. Is this true?

Q: I had an infection on my toe which I washed off (whatever was coming out of the infection) in the tub. A little later, while the tub was still wet, I was making wudu in the tub and some water splashed back to me when I washed my face. Was this water impure? Also, when I am filling up a jug to use to make istinja, I sometimes place my finger in the water to check how warm it is. Does this affect the ability of the water to purify?

Q: I read in Bahisti Zewar under miscellaneous masa'il that if a person uproots his hair, then the root of that hair is regarded as impure because of the stickyness that is found on it.

1. Does this mean that if you uproot a hair anywhere on your body then the root of that hair is impure?

2. If you touch the root of the hair then will your fingers also get impure and do you have to wash your fingers and make wudhu?

3. If you uproot a hair and you touch it but you feel no stickyness then will your fingers become impure?

4. Sometimes I pull at my sideburns and a hair comes out and it is yellowish in colour at the root but when I touch it there is no stickyness on it. Is the root of that hair impure and did my fingers become impure?
