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"?

Tradition of kissing someone's hand then touching it with forehead
In Turkish culture, one kisses the back of someone's hand to show respect. First he kisses the back of the person's hand, and then he he touches his forehead with it. Is this permissible?

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.

Severing ties of kinship with grandparents

Supplicating against oneself requires repentance
Assalaamu alaykum. About a month ago, I made a promise to Allah, the Exalted, that if I would commit a certain act again, I should be punished by falling into Shirk (polytheism/ascribing partners to Allah). Unfortunately, I committed that sin again. My question is not really based on repentance, as I have already repented, but more on whether the condition.. 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.

Learning knowledge from fatwa websites
Shaykh, as far I know, it is obligatory for me to know how to recite the Quran and know its meaning so that I can act according to it, so I have no question about that. However, I am confused regarding whether reading Tafseer (exegesis) of the Quran and books on Tawheed (pure monotheism) and the correct ‘Aqeedah (creed) separately is obligatory or.. More
