Correspondence of Quranic and Fiqhi terminologies
Assalaamu alaykum. I heard a brother say that there are some differences between Quranic terminologies and Fiqh terminologies; like in Fiqh, Salaah means prayer, zakah means charity. However, sometimes in the Quran, Salah may mean praying for somebody, zakah may mean purifying. Is that right?

Assalaamu alaykum. I go to a gym and they have yoga classes there early, and I do not plan to go to the gym early or do yoga, but is the whole gym haram because of that? If there is a boxing arena, are the sauna and weight lifting in this gym haram?

Writing project about music without mentioning any religious content
Assalaamu alaykoum. I am a 20-year-old muslim. I live in an Islamic country. I have a project in school about music, but I cannot mention any religious content (because my school has a military system), so during the preparations, I searched Google for only the good aspects of music; nevertheless, I know that there is something wrong about music.

Using alarm clock that plays music as alarm tone
Assalaamu alaykum. Someone told me that if one does not have any choice, then haram things are allowed. They base this on the fact that it is haram to eat swine but that if one does not have any other possibility, then one can eat swine. For me, it seems very strange, because then, in a way, everything haram will be halal. This person has an alarm clock.. More

Hybridization of plants
Assalaamu alaykum. Nowadays, hybridization of plants is popular. I am very fond of gardening. There are three types of plants: autogamous, xenogamous and geitonogamous.

I am a convert, and I have an old desk in my roomat which I used to eat when I was a kafir (disbeliever). I used to eat haram meat, and I am 100% sure that it must have fallen on the desk many times and was only wiped with a wet cloth (I do not know how many times this happened) and was not wiped with a dry one afterwards. Its surface is not smooth,.. More

Paying Diyah of aborted fetus
I made the premature and ignorant decision to have an abortion. I am so disgusted with myself that I cannot even stomach food. Both my husband and myself made the stupid decision. The fetus was aborted around 40-45 days. I took a medication that killed the fetus before it came out. Then a few days later I took a different medication that passed the.. More

Fears that she made fun of Islam
Assalaamu alaykum. I would like to ask whether joking in the following way equals making fun of islam. If I were to relate to my friends of my past experience at a hospital where I was afraid of a needle and tell them that when the nurse brought a syringe to give me an injection, I started to pronounce, I testify that nothing is worthy of worship but..

Assalaamu alaykum. I have some questions regarding toys. There are a type of toys called transformers - toys that can change from a vehicle (like car or plane) to a robot resembling a human (but clearly not human as the car parts are still visible and most do not have human faces).1. Are these allowed for children (e.g. for young boys)? 2. Are these.. More

Fighting urge to cuss
Is waswaas (devilish whisperings) necessarily always deen-related? I think that I am suffering from waswaas about cuss words. I think of cuss words all the time now, even regarding people whom I really care about like my parents and siblings and friends. I feel guilty because I am now saying them out loud due to frustration from having these thoughts... More
