if one skips the jumma regilarly (often or almost always), is it haram? Will Allah send them to hell or punish somehow? That is, what the consequences are? More specifically, is there any difference in the answer for a male / female: Is it acceptable for a man / woman to skip Jumma regularly, or just stop attending it? I ask because our university bureaucrats invented a new annoyance for the Muslim students (I am a professor in a non- Muslim country. Many of my students are Muslim): the university bureaucrats now insist on that all students must attend a "seminar", which is held every Friday, and usually in the afternoon or early evening, i.e., at the same time when my students typically are at the Mosque . This implies that attending jumma namaz becomes practically impossible. Thus the students are forced to make a choice: degree and scholarship vs. attending jumma. Such a choice between scholarship and jumma namaz sounds to me much as what in Christian tradition is called to sell one's soul to the devil.That is to explicitly renounce God. Here, the choice between scholarship and jumma sounds to me much like that: renouncing God I for money. Is it that bad sin/ haram , in the Islamic view? am lost as for what to advise my students to do. I cannot advise them haram, and I cannot advise them to drop out from the university.

Scholars of Islam generally claim that it is not permissible for a woman to demand alimony from her ex-Husband except in instances of child support. However, I came across this Ayah in Quran 2:241 that states: > وَلِلْمُطَلَّقَاتِ مَتَاعٌۢ بِٱلْمَعْرُوفِ ۖ حَقًّا عَلَى ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ > > Reasonable provisions must be made for divorced women—a duty on those > mindful ˹of Allah˺. > > Surah Al-Baqarah (2:241) The vast majority of jurists interpret this as a Mahr given to women whose dower was not specified during the time of consumation of the marriage. However, according to IslamQA , it is the opinion of Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyya and Sheikh Muhammad ibn Salih al-Uthaymin that this must be given to all divorced women, even if the marriage has been consumated and the Mahr has been given. > Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: Maintenance must be given to every divorced women, even after consummation. What is the opinion of the four schools of thought and other classical Islamic scholars on this topic. Is this a one time payment or regular monthly payments akin to alimony in the West.

I want to die my hair. I'm a man and I do not have white/gray hair, it is still black. I know if i dye it, it needs to be a natural color. So is it permissible for me to dye my hair?

Salam aleikum brothers and sisters. I have heard some imams say that the lowest person in Jannah will in reality have so much more than this entire Dunya and everything in it and that Allah SWT just uses the example of 10 times this Dunya and everything in it to give our extremely limited brains a tidy idea of how much he will actually get. How true is this?

As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh, I hope this message finds you well. I have a question that has been deeply troubling me and affecting my faith, and I sincerely seek your guidance and knowledge. I am struggling to understand how Allah, who is Al-Rahman (The Most Merciful), can punish someone for eternity in Hell. If a person lives for a short time in this world — perhaps 70 or 80 years — how can their mistakes, no matter how great, justify an eternal punishment? From my understanding, even if someone fully knows the truth of Islam yet rejects it until death, the concept of eternal punishment feels difficult to reconcile with Allah’s infinite mercy. In my human perspective, I feel that I would never punish someone endlessly for a finite lifetime of mistakes. Of course, I know my understanding is limited, but this creates a deep conflict in my heart. The only reasoning I can think of is that perhaps the soul, even after being in Hell for unimaginable lengths of time, still refuses to accept Allah — but then again, Allah created us and has complete power over our nature. Could He not have created us all to eventually enter Jannah, even if at different levels, so that His perfect justice and perfect mercy are both fulfilled? I ask this question with humility and sincerity, not out of disrespect, but because I genuinely wish to understand and strengthen my iman. I would be deeply grateful for your explanation. JazakAllahu khayran

It is understood by the consensus of scholars that a father may arrange the marriage for his minor son and the marriage is binding on him when he reaches puberty. My question is — who is responsible to pay the dower (mahr) to his wife. The father or the minor son? Ibn Abi Shaybah has posted several opinions in his book , The Book of the Compiler, both of which are contradicting each other. Some scholars say the father, some say the minor son. I would like to know the opinion of the four madhabs and other classical scholars, and what is the most authentic opinion in this regard.

I have a question about Hadith 3199, Book 59, Hadith 10. In there is told by Abu Dar that he heard from Muhammad(pbuh) that the sun at sunset travels to the Throne of Allah and has to get permission before it is allowed to rise up again. It ends with telling that that is is what verse 36:38 of the Quran is refering to. Is this a correct Hadith? The chain must be correct to make it inside Sahih Bukhari and the narrator must be a trustworthy person. But is it possible that he heard it wrong from Muhammad(pbuh), misunderstanded it or even confused it with other things? In the past it would not be as strange as it is now in this scientific age. We know now that the earth rotates around the sun and around itself. It is not the sun that goes around the earth. The day that the sun comes up from the west will be caused by the earth that starts to rotate in the opposite way. And the sun too is moving inside the Milky Way galaxy and I though that the verse in the Hadith refers to that last movement instead of refering to the sunset and the sunrise. We also know that the sun at sunset is still shining at the opposite part of the earth. If we think at night that the sun went to the Throne of Allah what should the people at the other side of the earth think while for them it is day on that same moment? Is it just me who does not understand how that is possible, or is science not that far yet, or is it symbolic? Can it be misunderstood and narrated by a good man through a correct chain?

**ٱلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ** Dear brothers and sisters, I'm on a journey to deepen my understanding of Islamic theology (aqidah) and I'm exploring the methodologies of the Athari, Ash'ari, and Maturidi schools. It's easy to get lost in complex arguments and historical debates. For those who have studied this and feel aligned with one of these schools, I'm not asking you to debate which is 'correct.' Instead, I'd love to hear about your personal journey. **What was the pivotal concept, book, lecture, or realization that made you say, "Aha! This approach resonates with me and strengthens my connection to Allah"?** My goal is to understand the core appeal and spiritual benefit that people find in each path, beyond the academic labels. **جَزَاكُمُ ٱللَّٰهُ خَيْرًا**

As it is said that as the person dies, the torment in his grave starts so the people who have died much earlier then will their torment be much greater than those people who died recently?

Will my salah be valid if my niyyah is as follows: *'I'm unintentionally forcing myself for salah only for Allah.'*

Salaam everyone! I need some advice on a halal income situation. I work at a game studio where, unfortunately, they use pirated software. I’m just an employee and follow the tasks my employer gives me — I don’t own the company or choose the tools. Now, I’m planning to take an interest-free loan from this company (they’ll deduct it monthly from my salary) to build my own personal PC. On that PC, I plan to create my own independent games using only authentic and legally purchased tools— no piracy, no inappropriate content — fully clean. Once I launch those games and start earning from them, will that income be 100% halal? Or is there a gray area I should be aware of? I’d really appreciate your insights. JazakAllah khair!
