The reason supplications do not always prevent harm
Assalaamu alaykum. I noticed two hadiths in Sahih Muslim where Muhammad 
said that if one stops at a place and says, "I seek refuge in the perfect Words of Allah from the evil of what He has created," then nothing will harm that person. Does this mean that, Allaah forbid, a Muslim who said this and was severely assaulted.. More

How to reprimand a misbehaving, elderly person
Respecting the elders is obligatory, but some people have some mental problems, some more and some less. If a real mental patient, due to his mental state, says useless and bad things that can or will have bad results, not only in worldly matters but also (lead to a) sin, both for him and others, then to avoid such consequences, is it permissible to..

The mother's relatives are part of a person's family
Are the mother's relatives considered one's own relatives? Are they part of one's family? I know that they do not inherit, but some people in our culture go as far as to not keep ties and a loving relationship with the mother's relatives, saying that they are not part of one's family and blood ties and that the father's family are the only relatives..

Spread of sin might be punishment from Allaah for leaving the Quran and Sunnah
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu. I recently read many of your fatwas in regards to certain disturbing subjects, such as incest, and many others, and brothers and sisters admitting to committing these sins. It made me realize as I read that our ummah is in a horrific state, engaging in some acts that are filthy and are not part of our.. More

Assalamu alaykum. Abou Hourayra (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam,said, "Do not insult the devil, and seek protection of Allah against his evil."

Keeping in touch with Muslim sisters though they engage in backbiting and idle chatting
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuh. I was wondering if sisterhood is necessary. I am a sister who has found that corresponding with sisters, whether in person or over the phone can become a great fitnah (temptation, tribulation). Even with those, who, for the most part, strive to stay away from backbiting, it still remains a temptation.. More

The Islamic methodology in conveying the news and receiving them
Assalaamu alaykum. Sometimes a Muslim person comes on the news and reports a particular incident. Some people believe it, saying that we have to presume that a Muslim is truthful and innocent.

What is the Sunnah as regards entering and leaving one's own house? Should we go out with the right or the leg foot first? Is this supported by any hadith of Prophet, sallallaahu 'alayhi was sallam?
