Getting angry without expressing it
Assalaamu alaikum. Is it disliked to get angry for worldly purposes, or can oneget angry inside but it is disliked to express the anger? To me, the hadith which says, “Do not get angry,” means that we should not get angry for worldly reasons in the first place. However, anger for the sake of Allah is good, and with the parents, it is haram. Another.. More

Parents pressuring son to divorce his wife
Is everything in life predetermined? If someone gets divorced, is that part of their decree/destiny? Even if it is a choice, how is it the woman's fault if her husband's parents are ordering him to divorce her and refuse any reconciliation? The couple has a baby. The girl's family tried endlessly to achieve reconciliation, but the husband's family does.. More

Doubting faith of one who boasts of his sins
Should someone who boasts of his sins or does things that are seen by some scholars as Kufr (disbelief) doubt his faith? If the others are right, would he enter Hell forever?

Thinking about women without ejaculation
I apologize for repeatedly asking questions about the same topic, but I think that you may have misinterpreted my last question. In your answer, you said, “Deliberately thinking about women in order to obtain pleasure by ejaculation is not permissible.” However, when I think about women, I do not ejaculate. So my question is: is deliberatelythinking.. More

Story of man who kept voluntary fasting hidden to achieve sincerity
Bismillaahi Ar-Rahmaani Ar-Raheem (in the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate)! I once heard a story from a scholar of a righteous man who fasted for 20 years (on the days of the Sunnah) and did not tell his wife (for the purity of his intentions). Have you heard of something similar as well? If so, can you give me the reference.. More

What is the meaning of forming the intention in the heart? Is it silently thinking in one's mind before starting that deed that "I will do this deed for the sake of Allah to gain reward"? Example: Before reading Islamic books, should I silently think "I will gain knowledge for the sake of Allah to gain reward"? Is making this type of intention worship.. More

Assalaamu alaykum. I have a waqf, which is to pay the study tuition for a Muslim child, and I am planing to tell my friend to do the same thing. My question is: should I tell my friend what I do, so that he may do the same, or should I keep it secret? Thank you.

Disclosing secret to prevent possible harm
Assalaamu alaykum. My sister asked me yesterday for advice on how to get a loan of 2 million riyals. I was extremely shocked by this request because loans can quickly spiral out of control into massive debt. She told me this in private, and I do not remember exactly, but she probably also told me that I cannot tell the rest of our family. However, I.. More

Excessive worry about one's sins and sins of others
Assalaamu alaykum. I have been worrying about the sins of my parents for a very long time. Though they generally are very good and do not engage in anything bad, you know how sometimes, out of anger, we do or say things that we should not do or say, and these things may be very sinful nonetheless. For example: About three years ago, during an argument,.. More

How to react to insults to one's family or people
Assalaamu alaykum. I remember that years ago, a lot of violation happened between two nations, Algerians and Egyptians, and they said very bad things, including all sorts of swearing and other similar stuff. Then today, I saw a post from an Egyptian speaking about the nudity on the beaches of Algeria. My question is: what should I do if I saw someone.. More

Whether weeping out of fear of Allah erases sins
Two different scholars gave two different legal opinions. One said that weeping out of fear of Allaah erases the past sins only, and not the future ones. The other scholar said that it also includes the future ones. My question is: does weeping out of fear of Allaah erase the past and future major and minor sins, or just the past major and minor sins?

Unintentional mistakes of Muslims are pardoned
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuh. What is the ruling on hurting someone unintentionally, like when you bump into them, for example, or when your pockets are full of things, so the person praying beside you gets hurt or feels uneasy.

Honor lies in obedience to Allah, not in excelling in worldly pursuits
Why does it seem like the Christians and disbelievers have all the honor, with their crafty crafts, such as music and so on and the Muslims do not have better nasheeds (prior to Islam, I used to listen to music) in the sense that they have better rhyme patterns and melodies and so on and it just seems like the disbeliever have more honor in some aspects?..
