Rewarding oneself for doing good deed
Assalaamu alaykum. I want to do a certain optional worship daily, but I find it difficult to do that, so to motivate myself, I reward myself. For example, I say to myself, if I do this good deed today, then I will eat such-and-such delicious food in such-and-such restaurant. Is that okay?

Answer father's call or start prayer
Assalaamu alaykum. If I am about to pray but my dad calls me on the phone and speaks about what matches to bet on (my dad gambles quite a lot), is it still permissible for me to pray?

Not talking to fellow Muslim for more than three days without abandoning him
Assalaamu alaykum. I have some questions about the following hadith: "The Muslim is not allowed to abandon a Muslim brother more than three days. If three days pass and he meets him, he should greet him. If he (the other believer) returns his greeting, then they share the reward; but if he does not return it, then he (alone) will incur the sin."

Parent not entitled to force child to eat certain foods
Assalaamu alaykum. My issue is that I am fasting and my dad wants me to eat burgers and chips every day forIftaar(breaking the fast)(which would have a drastic toll on my health), I refuse to do this, even though he might curse Allaah, The Exalted.

Saying Thikr in language other than Arabic
In one of the fatwas, you stated that doing Thikr (expressions of remembrance of Allaah) of some recitation is advised for a man before having intercourse with his wife. However, I would like you to tell me whether I should say that verse in Arabic only or if I can read its translation in English too? Would that be the same or not?

Doubting whether one made vow or not
Assalaamu alaykum. I will describe two situations, but both of them are related to the same topic and ask similar questions. 1) "I will never leave praying Tahajjud (night prayer)," or, " I promise you O, Allaah, that I will always pray Tahajjud," or, " By Allaah, I will always pray Tahajjud," or the like. I am not sure nor do I remember clearly whether.. More

Learning worldly sciences is communal obligation
Assalaamu alaykum. I am from Bangladesh. In my country, Islamic studies are not taught appropriately in normal schools. So, for many years, the best centers for Islamic studies were madrasas.
