Discovering scholar practices sorcery

Making vow requires wording that implies commitment
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu, Shaykh. I am very confused regarding statements that I say and whether they constitute vows or not.

Lying to mother to end her suffering
Dear Brother, I was molested and abused a lot as a child. These past few days, I was repenting to Allaah and read that the parents are responsible for their young children.

It is Sunnah to start lectures with Khutbat-ul-Haajah

Asking forgiveness for non-Muslim parents impermissible
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu, Shaykh. While praying, we say a supplication after reciting the salutations on Prophet Muhammad,sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam; that supplication also contains, “Rabbi ighfirli wa li-waalidayya wa lil-mu’mineena yawma yaqoomu-l-hisaab.” My question is: if one's parents are disbelievers, can the..

Preventing parent from dealing in interest
I am the cause of my father being unable to get interest of around 30,000 taka every year. As revenge, he ordered me to give this money from my own pocket every year. I thought that it was obligatory to obey him in this regard, and so I told him (without saying 'I promise') that I would do so. Does this mean that it has become obligatory upon me to.. More
