Assalaamu alaykum.

Failure to fulfil vow to fast three months in three years
Assalaamu alaykum. Sir, my question is regarding making a promise to Allah, the Exalted, and then not fulfill it.

I apologize for repeatedly asking questions about the same topic, but I think that you may have misinterpreted my last question.

Adult man asking parents to buy him pair of shoes
Assalaamu alaykum, Scholars. I am 19 years old, and I love my parents and do not provide for myself. I hardly ever ask my parents to buy me things for mere pleasure, and I do not like to do this; rather, I feel that it is disrespectful. Recently, I saw a pair of shoes that I love (for a reasonable price: 30€, more or less) and would like to buy, but.. More

Injustice to the wife is a major sin
Allah says in the Quran that the wife has similar rights to what is against them according to what is reasonable. What I understood is that these are the rights which the man gets through obedience and the wife gets through kindness because she cannot command the husband. What I am asking is whether being unkind to one's wife is a major sin or a minor.. More

Collective Thikr after prayer in Masjid
In our masjid, the muezzin says the supplication for the azan out loud, and then he says "Salatus sunnah", and after the imam has made the Tasleem (ending the prayer with the Salaam greeting), he says, "Allahumma antas salaam..." out loud.
