Q: I am a member of a Musjid committee. My question is about the ladies facility at the Musjid.
Some committee members feel that we must invite the sisters to attend some Musjid programs, especially which take place on special occasions and in Ramadhaan, in the separate ladies facility at the Musjid. There is no intermingling in the Musjid. These programs may also include meals served to them.
Other committee members are of the view that this must be avoided.
Please advise which is the correct policy to adopt in this issue.
Q: As Muslims we believe that the message of the Quran is clearly and fully conveyed to us all but when we come across the ayah of wudhu in Surah Maidah and start contemplating upon it, we see opposite opinions of Shia and Sunnis over this very fundamental issue of wudhu. Both of these schools know Quran very well and also jurisprudence at large. From this very clear book and guidance, the highly knowledgeable people of two sects reach opposite results when the Qur'an wants to convey only one instruction i.e., whether to wash or wipe the feet. We cannot decide which of these is true. We also know that washing feet is obligatory in hanafi and other sunni school of thought.
So as a truth seeker, what is the yardstick to decide which one is right while Quran tells us that Quran has conveyed clear messages which seems to be not understandable even by the highest people.
Under these circumstances, how can I reach the true essence of Quran? Sadly saying, there are many other basic issues for which these two sects infer the opposite meanings/explanations. Please guide me logically.

Q: There is an orator who has been recorded as saying that asking Nabi ﷺ at the Raudah Mubarakah to make Duaa for a person is far worse of an act compared to a person who did Zina with and impregnated his mother and thereafter killed her.

Q: Is it kufr if one is forced to write kufr things in notes/exams like "evolution is true, darwinism is true"? I write for the sake of getting marks and not getting punished by my teachers for writing mistakes in my notes. Is this kufr?

Q: I have some questions regarding the correct Hanafi aqeedah:
1. Is Allah Ta'ala above his arsh?
2. Is the arsh, in the heavens or above the heavens?
3. Is Allah being above his arsh the salafi opinion? If not, what is their opinion so that I don't get confused?
