Assalaamu alaykum. I have a question regarding the following statement: Ibn Hajar said in Al-Fath, 1/244, "Regarding forbidden things as permissible is kufr (disbelief), and leading others to kufr is also kufr. However, this view is subject to further examination. The majority of the scholars are of the view that this does not constitute kufr unless.. More
I know about the evil Eye and the risks of it and that we have to protect ourselves against it. But I think that my husband suffers from waswaas (devilish whisperings) regarding that. He tries to hide me and the baby everywhere and from everybody. He does not like anyone to know about us. He gives me other names. He does not tell his brother when he.. More
Assalaamu alaykum. If Allaah did not help the disbeliever/sinner/unjust in the past, will He help them today? Fir'awn (the Pharaoh) and Namrood used all the available resources to claim divinity in the past, will the Dajjaal be provided with his vehicle - i.e. a weird and powerful donkey, as mentioned in the hadiths - by Allah to help him spread afflictions?..

Assalaamu alaykum. My question relates to having absolutely certainty about the core values/beliefs of Islam, like believing that Allaah is one, that He does not have a son, and so on. My friend says that very few things are absolutely certain in life, including most hadiths and the core values/beliefs of our creed. He said that we are obligated to.. More
Assalamu alaykum. I truly appreciate the work that you do answering questions, and I have a question that is really important and I need advice, Allaah willing. I am very eager to receive your response, Allaah willing, as I am very worried. I go to High School in America, where things are taught from a secular standpoint. Earlier this year, my dad and.. More
Assalaamu alaykum. I have a question regarding the faith of the children of the disbelievers. There is a difference of opinion amongst the scholars. Some scholars believe that they will end up in hell while some believe that they will be tested. The belief that they will be tested seems to be the most correct. Is it right to regard the first opinion.. More
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaah! Respected scholars, I want to know two things: -1 I have two e-mail addresses, sometimes I send you my questions from both the addresses while your terms and conditions say that one can send only a question per day; am I cheating by doing this because the addresses are two but the sender is same?

As I know, a Messenger is the one on whom Allaah has descended the commandments and who is required to lay down the commandments on the people. In one of the hadiths, Prophet Muhammad, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, stated, "There are 313 or 319 messengers that Allaah has sent to different nations." In the Quranic verse mentioned bellow, it says that.. More
Please, what is the ruling on lying to (two muslims) by telling them that a disbeliever is a muslim (though in the Muslim's heart, he does not believe that this disbeliever is a Muslim)? He is concealing his disbelief and labelling him a muslim. The person that does this knows that lying is haram. But when he does that, he does not know that labeling.. More
Is it true that every person who is born has five angels with him: two angels sit on your shoulders to record your deeds, one is in front and the other is behind you, and then there is a fifth angel that whispers you to do good things while we have a shaytan that tells us to do bad things?

Assalaamu alaykum Brother. I was just wondering; it sounds like we will all look the same and act the same in heaven, like all white, all 90 feet tall, no beard, and all looking like Aadam, may Allaah exalt his mention, but that sounds horrible; looking all the same like robots. Why can we not look different, why can we not be black, white, or of different.. More
Al-Bukhaari (4500) and Muslim (6890) narrated from Abu Moosa that the Prophet, sallallaahu ʻalayhi wa sallam,said:
“Two gardens of silver, their vessels and everything in them; and two gardens of gold, their vessels and everything in them. And there will be nothing between the people and their seeing their Lord, may He be blessed and exalted,.. More
Assalaam alaykum. On what basis or why was the the Jewish race elevated by Allaah above other races? Why were they considered better or superior? Also, does Surah 49 verse 13 apply to the jinn and human alike, and therefore the jinn species and the human species are equal? Please respond with evidence from the Qur'an and Sunnah. May Allaah reward you.. More
