Q: In my childhood, I promised to my teacher that I will not watch television (T.V). When I started trying to bring Islam in my practical life I realized the importance of promise in Islam. Alhamdulillah I tried to abstain from watching T.V and every kind of videos on internet. Sometimes I want to listen the lectures of religious scholars, learn tajweed/ Aabic or other languages. Being a female I can't go outside easily. Can I convert the video lectures into audio mp3 and then only listen them?  

س: ما معنى اسمه تعالى المهيمن؟

Q: 

1. Could the respected Scholar please explain how following the verdicts of various Scholars constitutes following ones desires when the verdict is from the Sharia'ah and not ones desires?

2. What is meant by Nabi sallahu alaihi wasalam chose, encouraged and advocated the easiest way, manner path etc. if there were options?

3. Does the quoted Ayah and Hadith refer to following the verdicts of Scholars? or following one’s own analogy and outcome?

Q: Kindly provide a response on the following: In today's times, with more and more people watching hindi movies, their ways are being practiced by Muslims. What are the consequences of a person bowing down to another person, like how the hindus do it - going down on their knees, with head bowed over (almost touching the ground) and touching the feet of the person? Does the Muslim person become a Mushrik? If yes, then does the nikah of that person break? How should such a person make towbah?

Q: What is the ruling regarding celebration of birthdays in Islam? Is it haraam? if so  is everything associated with it e.g. Going out to eat or buying a cake on the day also haraam?

Q: Is it permissible to practice the science of ilmul aadaat and Naqsh? This science utilizes powerful mathematics and numerology to express the various verses of Quran and Ruqyah Asshariah which are translated to numbers. These naqsh have benefited several people and are described in various books of amaliyaat.

س: ما المقصود من اسم الله تعالى - المؤمن؟؟ معناه بالنسبة للإنسان مفهوم، و ما معناه بالنسبة إلى الله تعالى؟

Q: Is there anything wrong with consulting/querying a verdict with multiple reputable Scholars, Sheiks, Muftis. Thereafter one follows and adopts the easiest verdict and decision of any one/few of them.. even though the verdicts and decisions of the rest may be contradicting and different?

Example: Some scholars permit Witr in the Makah Sharif and others don't. Can one choose the easier of the two? Is consistency on one Scholars verdict essential? or can one consider the verdicts of other Scholars?

Q: I had today head ache what made me difficult to concentrate. I opened up the door to a sister who holds a present for my children. Because of my condition I did not realize what I did or was not able to correct situation. She is a Muslim sister and clearly said that this present is because of Nicolas. (In Germany we have Nicolas day in our schools. Children receive gifts from their teachers.) She is a neighbour and new interested in Islam and I work on her. I did not want to say it directly but later on explained that she should give such presents for the sake of Allah Ta´ala and earn thawab and send thawab to her dead father. But expressed my happiness about the present for my children because I know that she likes me and want to stay in contact with me. I told her that also there is no need for present if I read Yasin Shareef for her father and I cannot accept gifts. I am very sad that I did not react on the door before taking the gift. Please explain me if there was something wrong according deen. What would be wisdom? I know it is kufr to give gifts on a eid day of other religions but what is if accept them what I did but with the intention to bring to her attention.
