Q: Is funeral cover permissible in Islam?

Q: My sister recently applied for a tutoring job with good payment online. However, due to being occupied with household chores, she asked me to tutor the kids under her name and profile (without the one who hired knowing) since I am looking for a tutoring online job too. I'm not as qualified as her although I'm qualified enough to tutor those kids but I refused thinking that it would be a deception. Was this act permissible?

Q: Please advise if the following form of investment is permissible.

We purchase a two bedroom apartment in a complex which belongs exclusively to us. Nine other people also purchase two bedroom apartments in the complex. All ten of us then enter into a partnership and agreement (with an agent handling the entire portfolio) that we will all hand over our apartments to the agent for rental. However, the proceeds at the end of the month will be shared equally in the partnership among all ten of us, irrespective of whose apartment was leased out more in that period.

Will such a partnership agreement be permissible and valid?

Q: If a person invested some money in a retail business and then within a period of between 3 to 6 months insists on his investment being returned, can he still be regarded as a partner in the business a few years on?

Q: I was at this fastfood shop last week and I bought a 3 chicken wings meal. I came home and saw that I was given 4. Normally I don’t worry about this since usually I assume this occurs if one of the wing pieces is small so they give another to compensate, however, because I’m dealing with religious OCD and doubts, I’m worried. I called them today and they confirmed that sometimes they do this for the reason I mentioned above. Can I assume that this is what occurred in my case instead of thinking that they made a mistake?

Q: I am a software developer and two weeks ago my friend asked that he has signed a deal with his client for an android app that we need to deliver within 30 days. My friend and his client both are very trusted although the client is a non-Muslim. So what happened is neither he saw the project details nor me and after two week now when I started working on the project I realized that it was a betting app. Me and my friend both are very stressed that should we take the money from this app or not? Since he has transfered the money into our bank account, what should we do?
