Q: The newspapers in our country contain Muslim names like Muhammad, the names of Allah which are used for a person etc. If I blot these names with a black marker in a way that it cannot be seen, after that can I use it for any other purpose (for example we use the newspapers for our cat’s toilet)?

Q: Is it a misunderstanding of Islam to refuse to go beyond using pure supplications to Allah in order to overcome a huge problem at hand? Some local imams are prescribing things like taking special baths and drinking certain concoctions in addition to supplications and azkar. These are good and devoted imams. They say that it's okay so long as one is not committing shirk or using something forbidden. But I am not so sure. Moreover, I am someone who naturally believes in and prefers pure supplications, especially Quraanic and Prophetic supplications.

Please I NEED you to confirm the truth on this matter.
