Q: I wanted to ask for a fatwah on a topic related to Halloween. Universal studios theme park hosts an event called horror nights during the month of October. The theme park stays open after it’s normal operating times and has its rides open with scary themed characters that scare the people attending.

The price for the ticket is a little less than the day park ticket and is not used or donated for anything other than park profit. Would it be haraam to go to horror nights?

Q: What is sunnah of wearing an imaamah (turban) e.g. length, colour, etc.?

Q: If someone slaughters an animal for the jinn, is this major shirk?

Q: Do any of these constitute as SPECFICALLY SHIRK/KUFR (have I come out of the fold of Islam for these things):

1. Playing video games that have magic in them, voluntarily pressing buttons that make the character use magic?

2. Saving digital pictures/art online in a personal online account like Pinterest or Discord, using them as profile pictures or sending them to other people? (NOT producing/making them myself)

3. Watching videos of haraam stuff or people doing haraam stuff like playing a game, animated show, dancing, singing, drawing, or just of animate objects even if you do not believe that these are halaal actions or disallow shirk in your heart/mind?

4. Making up/imagining/daydreaming scenarios in your head where you have a completely different life as a non-muslim in a world without God, committing shirk or doing haraam things even if you would not do so in this life/reality and do not actually believe it in? Basically imagining myself imitating kufaars in another world because of a desire to mindlessly engage in worldly fun like other people where you wouldn’t be held accountable?

5. Enjoying viewing or talking about haraam stuff, like watching a dance and saying “it was a good dance” and NOT “dance is allowed in Islam” or like discussing what happened in a picture novel with people?

6. Talking casually with a kaafir online, not considered as a close friend, while making sure I do not engage with Shirk topics or explicitly encouraging their haraam ways/topics they bring up?

Q: I do not celebrate birthdays, however my family does. What should I do with gifts they give me?

Q: On social media, if we visit an astrologer page and (didn't ask questions in private) on their pages, there is little info about what will happen in the next few days... if we read that or read in a flash... Will our prayers not be accepted for 40 days?

Q: If a person denies Mi'raaj being bodily, does he become a kaafir because it's mutawaatir?

Q: Khalid Sayed recently made an apology for his kufr statement against the Honourable Khulafa e Raashideen (radhiyallahu ‘anhum). 

We wish to find out whether his apology is sufficient or does he have to renew his Imaan and Nikah as we understand that he made Irtidaad with his defiling statement against the Sahaabah (radhiyallahu ‘anhum)?

Q: I would like to know if its possible that Yajooj and Majooj are out or will they only come out after the Mahdi? Is it possible that they are a nation amongst us? I have heard someone say they are the Russians or Europeans.

Q: My question is regarding the significance of Tuesdays. I was recently advised by someone that I should not sign transfer papers or important documents on a Tuesday and it is preferable to do it on a Jummah if possible. I have never heard anything regarding this before. Is there anything in the Hadith or Quraan about Tuesdays being a bad day or a day on which important activities should not be conducted?
