Different sects
Q: What are all the Muslim sects that are not Sunni or Shia? (Not every single group from within each sect but all the sects of Islam that every Muslim group falls into i.e Sunni and Shia.)
Aqaaid
Is the Kalaam of Allah Ta'ala qadeem?
Q: In the Ahaadith like the following:
ینزل ربنا عز و جل کل لیلة الی سماء الدنیا حین یبقی ثلث اللیل الاخر فیقول من یدعونی فاستجیب له من یسئلنی فاعطیه من یستغفرنی فاغفر له
How do we understand this? Is All Allah Ta'ala's speech qadeem?

Mother insulting Ulama
Q: I'm really becoming despondent of my parents attitude on Islam and how they criticize every sunnat that I strive to practice in my life and this is really becoming intolerable for me. On two separate occasions, my mother abused Pakistani Deobandi Ulema. I realize that this is a serious blasphemy and her nikah with my father must have been broken. Is it right, mufti sahab? My heart ached a lot when I heard such a comment on the pious deobandi ulema of pakistan who have sacrificed their lives for uplifting deen. And are reflection of the lives of Sahaba R.A. I have a lot of aqeedat with Deobandi Ulema and cannot live along with such a person who abuses them. I have heard stories of Sahaba R.A and pious akabireen who left their parents when they uttered blasphemous words against our Prophet SAW. As Prophet SAW's waaris are Ulema, for this reason I have decided to leave my house and enroll in Nadwatul Uloom or Mazahir Uloom for Alimiyah course without informing anyone from my family. I'm 20 years old and have currently 660 rupees in my bank account (10 dollars). I know that when I leave my house I shall face a lot problems but I really want to become an Aalim and study the deen. Most importantly, I can never live along some one who abuses deobandi ulema, I cannot tolerate this for a second. Whole of my entire family is very very far away from Islam. They never offer namaz for 5 times a day. My mother criticizes Hazrat Maulana Ilyas Ghuman D.B and it really infuriates me a lot. Will leaving the house because I cannot tolerate such blasphemous comments and for becoming an alim from a madarssa like Nadwatul uloom constitue a sin?
A person who rejects the Ahaadith
Q: My best friend who is elder than me (age approx 35) was normal person and use to pray and believe in Quran & Sunnah. He also performed ummrah this year with his family. Last week I meet him and he discussed few things with me on religion which made me surprised. He believes in Quran and everything Quran says. He believes in our Holy Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) but does not believes in the Ahaadith which are mentioned in different books. As per him, Holy Quran Says right and is a complete book (thats true) but he says ahadees are manipulation by human beings and challenge authenticity of Ahadees. Also he do not believe in praying Salah five times because number of Salah and ways of offering Salah is not mentioned in QURAN. Also he belief Salaah means being close to Allah Ta'ala and do good acts. Also he disrespect different books of Ahadees and (ALLAH TALLAH for give me ) says why DAROOD SHAREEF is not in QURAN which is a complete book and says, DAROOD SHAREF is human made (NO DOUBTS HE COMPLETELY BELIEVES EVERYTHING WRITTEN IN QURAN AND HOLY PROPHET MUHAMMAD (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) IS OUR LAST PROPHET) After knowing his thoughts I am scared if my friend is loosing right path. Also if his thinking and actions can lead him out of Islam. Please tell me the easiest way to bring him back since I am also not a very practising and educated Muslim so I am facing difficulties to do the right thing.
Teaching children about Shakespeare
Q: I am a qualified secondary English teacher. Is it permissible for me to teach Muslim children about Shakespeare and the fictional content of English literature? I am worried that I will be accountable to Allah Ta'ala for what I teach to children.
Practising Islam secretly
Q: I live in Paris. I am contacting you for a serious case about a person who wants to convert to Islam. The person who converted to Islam is stuck because of his parents. He can not separate from his parents but he wants to convert and practice Islam, at the same time he is afraid of his parents.
Using a broken comb
Q: I would like to know whether there is some ruling in islam that one should not comb his hair with a comb which is broken or just baseless belief? In some case they say it reduces rizq. Is it true?
Discussing things that are above one's understanding
Q: I work with an Indian who only accepts things with logic behind the principle. Today he asked me the following questions
1. How is it that we eat fish even though we don't slaughter it?
2. Why is it impermissible to eat meat such as horse, cat, dog etc?
It would be greatly appreciated if you could give the answers to these questions as I was speechless.
