  • Using photos of women in Hijaab on Da'wah leaflets

    I was thinking about making some leaflets so that I can give Daw‘ah (proselytization) to the disbelievers in my city. On these leaflets, I want to write about Islam, but I also want to put some photos from internet on them so that people can see the beauty of Islam. Am I allowed to put photos of females who wear the hijab/niqab on these leaflets and.. More

  • Questions about slavery are futile

    Assalaamu alaykum, Shaykh. My question was the following: I know that it is permissible to engage in ‘Azl (coitus interruptus) with a slave woman without her consent, and I read a few hadiths that say that during the campaign of Banu Al-Mustaliq, some of the Companions got female captives and wanted to perform ‘Azl in order to be able to sell them..

  • Reporting colleagues who commit violations and reject advice to stop

    Some of my colleagues are continuously involved in wrongdoings at the office; they overcharge clients, manipulate invoices, etc. I tried to make them stop doing that several times, but nothing has changed.

  • Christian wife of convert hates Islam

    Assalamu alaykom. I accepted Islam in 2002 and got married to a Muslim, praise be to Allah.

    Assalaamu alaykum. I am very worried about my teenage daughter. She has stopped believing in Islam and Allaah and also has developed haram relationships with boyfriends.

  • Zoroastrianism copied aspects of heavenly messages

    Asalaamu alaykum. Many among the enemies of Islam have frequently claimed that Islam copied Zoroastrianism in the implementation of the five daily prayers, as the Zoroastrians do so as well.

  • Giving Da'wah collective obligation

    Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu. My parents are against me giving Da'wah (proselytization) and Islaah (reform), especially to my relatives through them (like the paternal uncle, maternal aunt) and to my father's work colleagues. They say that it puts people off and that if they complain to the boss that his son is annoying me, it will.. More

    Assalaamu alaykum, Scholar. I live with my non-religious parents. I am more flexible with my mother regarding advising her because she does not react angrily and is not displeased with me (in most cases), but as for my father, I used to advise him, and he would usually become angry or say, “Ok, leave me alone ,leave me alone.” Now I am about to..

    Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu. If I see something haram being shown on TV, like women or music, is it obligatory upon me to send an email to the TV channel telling them that it is haram and to stop this?

    Assalaamu alaykum, Shaykh. I have a sister who is very bad. She does not pray, she treats my parents as animals or even worse, and so on. One day, I heard her say an insult.
