Q: Regarding the current conflicts, is it correct for Muslims to support Iran since they're 'defending Palestine', even though they might be Shia?

Q: Is there a specific way, method or structure to seek knowledge? I have heard that there is a ‘manhaj’ for seeking knowledge but do not know if this is correct.

Q: It is understood that a husband gains happiness seeing his wife engaged in ibaadaat without him telling her to. We learn that all ibaadaat should be done solely and only for Allah Ta'ala. 

My question is can one engage in ibaadaat with the hope that her husband will see her and feel happy, will one be sinful or is this against ikhlaas? 

Q: If a person does not believe in human evolution, he believes in creation of humans as Islam presents it. 

However regarding other life forms on earth, he believes they were evolved guided by Allah, not independent of His guidance. Does he become a kafir? His reasoning is that as far as his understanding goes, Islam is silent on how other species came on earth so one doesn't need to tie one's self to a specific belief. 

Does that person becomes a kafir? Please advise.

Q: A very concerning matter facing us here in the UK and I believe in many countries. The matter is that some ladies have opened a door of going around place to place to give bayaans. They become speakers and attend as well as put together conferences where they attract audiences based on their skills in language and the ability to deliver an entertaining talk. 

Some of them podcast on social media for everyone to listen to. Men have full access to listen to them live or to the saved video recordings. Some of them do so in niqaab and some without. 

This oratory by these women has become very appealing to young girls who see this as a goal to achieve in their spiritual growth. 

These women openly encourage other ladies to do the same and as a result there are teams of such ladies going around almost like shaikh and mureeds. They attract big followings and people are being misled to believe that the sahabiyaat use to also lecture and advise men in the matters of deen. 

They lure young girls with the snare of online quran classes and then lead them to the same desire to be lecturers and hold their own conferences. This has also become a business in the name of deeni efforts. This looks very attractive to modern muslim families that their wives and daughters are getting some kind of exposure to deeni knowledge and it is also very convenient in keeping them busy and as it is said rather keep them off the streets. 

Women and girls are also attracted through emotional activities of social and welfare work. In most cases the harms are not immediately apparent. 

Should innocent families be warned about this? To what extent should women be allowed to have these kind of lecture conferences? How should people be made aware ? Will appreciate your guidance on this matter

Q: Today salafisim is common. So I have a question. 

Many a time hadith are quoted to prove an action or say its incorrect. 

Is the Hadith alone sufficient or is the decision the fuqaha made on the Hadith combined more important because one Hadith out of context can lead a person into great fitnah?

Q: I have seen scholars saying that to believe a being can travel the entire world in one go is shirk. I have a few doubts about it. 

1. As far I know fast travelling is not even an attribute of Allah. Then why is it shirk? 

2. Even light can travel the earth in less than a second according to science then why did scholars call travelling in one go shirk? Even angels and shayateen can cover vast distances in a very short time. 

So in what context do scholars mean it?

Q: Can we ask for help or assistance directly from the Awliyah, the Prophet or Hazrat Ali, etc. and why does learned people say that Shaikh Abdul Qader said "If you call my name then I will come help you"?
