Holding intention to receive reward of acts of worship
My question is regarding the intentions for worship and related rewards. I have always tried to do all necessary acts of worship and more, such as praying, fasting, and zakah, as my obligations towards Allaah, without thinking of the associated rewards or even making an intention of getting the reward because I was always so concerned with doing the..

Woes and griefs as expiation for sins
Assalaamu alaykum, dear Brothers. If Allaah punishes someone with woes and griefs in this life for sins that he committed, can He remove this punishment in this life while this person continues to commit those sins and does not repent? You can just answer with yes or no. Thank you for your answer.

Posting pictures of one's library of Islamic books online
Assalaamu alaykum. One of the common things that I see online is that many brothers and sisters post a photo of their book shelves or collection of Islamic books on social media. Is that considered showing off, given that I do not see any benefit in doing so? Moreover, it is showing how much of an Islamic-knowledge seeker I am, whereas we should not.. More

Fear of dying while disobeying Allah
Assalaamu alaykum. I read on your site that if a person's last deed before passing from this world is good, then he may be in paradise though he is someone of the fire, and that if his last act is bad, he would be a person in the fire who is from paradise. This worries me because I sometimes do some things that are probably impermissible, such as my.. More

Execution of Hadd not condition for acceptance of repentance
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu. I believe I have done a lot of grave sins; some of the biggest are:
1. I used to commit homosexual acts.
2. I used to be involved in groups that promote homosexuality as a human right.
I like to think that I repented before two Ramadans ago. I began searching for ways to find peace of mind.. More

Repentant actress bears no sin for her works that people watch
If a non-Muslim actress converts to Islam, will she still earn sins if people watch her act in her movies in which she was not wearing a hijab? And is the money that she gained through acting haram? And what if some people have downloaded pictures of her before she converted in which she was not wearing a hijab, will that also count as a sin?

Listening to Nasheed with music to learn it / Growing the beard to follow the fashion
Assalaamu alaykum. I have two questions:
A) We know that singing 'good' songs without instruments is unanimously allowed. So if there is a 'good' song that contains music, can I listen to it in order to learn the song so that I can later sing it without the music?
B) If one grows his beard merely to follow the fashion or in order to follow the.. More

Thinks that disobeying her mother made her ill
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu, Shaykh. On my last visit to Makkah, I got very sick. I feel that it was due to the cold water that I drank. My mother had told me to drink the 'not cold' one. However, she agreed that I drink the cold one in front of me, but I feel that it was not the same inside, and when I apologised after getting.. More

Seeking forgiveness from looking at women
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaah wa barakaatuhu. I remember that I did haram by looking at girls or causing attraction, and may Allaah forgive me. My question is: is it necessary that the girls' father or brothers and so on forgive me in order for Allaah to forgive me, or the women's husband if she is married, or even the girl herself? And is it the.. More

Endeavoring to maximize one's well-being
Is maximizing one's well-being or doing research on ways to improve one's well-being in any way sinful in Islam?

Doing voluntary acts of worship is not an obligation
Assalaamu alaykum. With regard to every good act and/or act of worship, I notice that there are levels, one higher than the other. For example, while there is a reward for saying, 'Assalaamu alaykum', there is a greater reward in adding, 'wa rahmatullaah', and even a greater reward in adding, 'wa barakaatuhu', to it. The same goes for praying, wearing.. More

Writing list of sins to make repentance in Du'aa'
Assalaamu alaykum. Please spread your knowledge. For repentance, I sometimes have a lot of things that I want to repent from, so I write my repentance down, and then I read it off in my supplication. Is this an innovation, or is it acceptable? Also, what is the proper pronunciation of he Shahaadah (testimony of faith). Are we supposed to say Muhammadur.. More

Rewarding oneself for doing good deed
Assalaamu alaykum. I want to do a certain optional worship daily, but I find it difficult to do that, so to motivate myself, I reward myself. For example, I say to myself, if I do this good deed today, then I will eat such-and-such delicious food in such-and-such restaurant. Is that okay?

Taking extra money from bank cashier by mistake
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu. Dear Scholars, how are you? May Allaah reward you for your good deeds. My question today is the following: Several years ago (about six or seven), when I was a university student, somebody sent me some money through the bank. The sent amount was 200 Ethiopian birr (about 10 US dollars), but when I went.. More

Muslims commanded to conceal their sins
If a person commits a sin and attempts to hide his sins lest Allaah expose them, is he a Kafir given that he does so trying to stop Allaah from doing some thing i.e he believes that he can do so? And, secondly, if after receiving news that someone has become Muslim, if someone says, "I do not care," what is the ruling on him? I have asked the same question.. More
