  • Natural fear is not sinful

    I shared a video posted by someone which shows a sting operation disclosing such-and-such to be liable for a Muslim massacre, but these are old clips, and the culprit has now been set free by the supreme court, so I immediately deleted the video thinking that I might face a legal notice of defamationion of that individual, as he has been given a clean..

    Assalaamu alaykum. I study in college, where the higher-posted people are non-Muslims, and the students are organising functions of their religion in which they worship idols, and they started asking for money as a contribution.

  • Truth about subliminal messaging as source of power

    Assalaamu alaykum. I am a Muslim, and I was using something called subliminal's to get "superpowers", and the way this works is that it uses only your brain to run a command, so it pushes your brain and subconscious mind, and I can almost control smoke, but my question is: is what I am doing haram? Is it possible for the subconscious mind to do this,.. More

  • Regarding Burdah poem as praise of Prophet, sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam

    Assalaamu alaykum. I asked this question before but I was told to clarify it. So, basically, I wanted to know whether if one read some defenses or justifications of the Qasida Burda, accepting it as simply praise for the Prophet Muhammad, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam,instead of considering it to be excessive praise, and then read fatwas on the latter..

    Assalaamu alaykum. I had submitted a question asking whether a person who believed in the theory of evolution, or if he believed that Adam, peace be upon him, arrived through the process of evolution, is a Muslim or not? Although I received an answer to my question saying that Darwinism contradicted Islam, I received no direct answer saying that someone.. More

  • People of Paradise shall be beardless

    I know of the hadith which talks about this subject, but are there any Mawqoof (a narration attributed to a Companion) narrations of Ibn ‘Abbaas which say that men in Paradise will have no beards? I was told this by a scholar. If so, is it considered evidence? .. More

  • Women see each other in Paradise

    Assalaamu alaykum. Will a mother be able to see her daughter in Paradise? Will women have meals together on thrones around tables with each other?

  • Paradise promised to obedient males and females alike

    Assalaamu alaykum. I was just wondering; when the Quran says that we will have whatever we desire or want or wish in Paradise, are these verses only for the men, or are they for the men and women of this world? Do these verses include the women of this world, or is it just the men? .. More
