Feeling like Madhiy has been released, and constantly checking for it
I have a dirty thought. Sometimes I feel like something has been released but when I check nothing is there. Sometimes I don’t feel anything but there is something there. I can’t ignore it.

I have a dirty thought. Sometimes I feel like something has been released but when I check nothing is there. Sometimes I don’t feel anything but there is something there. I can’t ignore it. I’m constantly checking and it takes a lot of time just to do wudu and pray. The discharge I see could also be regular vaginal discharge but I don’t know how to tell, especially with these thoughts randomly coming in.

I am a revert and would like to know if my Nikkah is valid

Salam! I am a revert and Me and my partner had an online Nikkah in August 2023 with an Imam and 2 witnesses. All cameras were turned off. We received a certificate. Following the Hanafi rulings, a woman is not required to have a Wali so I did not have anyone. Both of our families are not aware of this Nikkah as my partner wanted to keep it a secret. Nobody from my family knows that I am Muslim as my parents are very against the religion. I am constantly doubting myself and feel that I have made a mistake. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Can men wear nylon socks in Islam?
Are men allowed to wear nylons such as nylon socks/ pantyhose in Islam ? These are usually made of synthetic fabrics such as polyester and nylons, which are not pure silk (which is, as far as I know,forbidden in Islam). Therefore,is wearing them permissible?

I have a question regarding an issue that i couldn't find the answer for anywhere else so I decided to ask here. After masturbating (I know it is bad and I am trying to stop), I usually force the semen to not release, however after several minutes or sometimes even an hour, I see a liquid that is thin and slightly white and slightly sticky, which fits the description of madhiy. Is this considered semen or madhiy and do I have to do ghusl?

Is brown sugar halal?
Is brown sugar halal? I've heard that it is not, but on the ingredients list it just say "brown sugar". Should I be worried because I have been consuming it.

Athar regarding adornment of slave-girls

> 22790- Narrated by Waki: Usamah ibn Zaid narrated to us, from Abu Hazim, from Sahl ibn Sa'd: They passed by him with a slave girl who had been adorned. So he called for her, looked at her, seated her in his lap, wiped over her head, and prayed for her with blessings.

> 22791- Narrated by Waki: Usamah ibn Zaid narrated to us, from some of his elders, he said: Umar said, "If one of you intends to improve the condition of a slave girl, let him adorn her and take her around, for thereby Allah's sustenance may come."

> 22792- Narrated by Waki: Al-Ala ibn Abd al-Karim narrated to us, from Ammar ibn Imran, a man from Zaid Allah, from a woman among them, from Aisha: She observed a slave girl, walked around with her, and said, "Perhaps some young men from the Quraysh might be interested in her."

Are these hadiths authentic? What justifies advertizing a girl to tempt men? why are the slave girls allowed to be adorned and is this wrong since the prophet (saw) said the worst of the women are those that show off their beauty?

My husband and I were met after few months in ramadan and we skipped fasting because we wanted to have intercourse. Does this also requires kafarrah?
My husband and myself are married but we stay in different states due to some reasons, and we meet occasionally after some months. We once met during ramadan and we both decided not to fast because we wanted to have intercourse. Is this also a sin and requires expiation?

can you separate a female captive's husband from her if there both captured
I know that when you captive prisoners of war thats married there divorce by being captured. If there capture with there husband then would they still be married and if so would it be permissible to seperate them or force a divorce.

Ikhtilaf and kufr
It is narrated in al-Fasl fi’l-Milal wa’l-Ahwa’ wa’l-Nihal, 3/128: >Ibn Hazm said: We narrated from ‘Umar ibn al-Khattaab (me Allah be pleased with him), Mu’aadh ibn Jabal, Ibn Mas’ood and a number of the Sahaabah (may Allah be pleased with them), and from Ibn al-Mubaarak, Ahmad ibn Hanbal, Ishaaq i...
It is narrated in al-Fasl fi’l-Milal wa’l-Ahwa’ wa’l-Nihal, 3/128:
>Ibn Hazm said: We narrated from ‘Umar ibn al-Khattaab (me Allah be pleased with him), Mu’aadh ibn Jabal, Ibn Mas’ood and a number of the Sahaabah (may Allah be pleased with them), and from Ibn al-Mubaarak, Ahmad ibn Hanbal, Ishaaq ibn Raahawayh (may Allah have mercy on them), and from 17 of the Sahaabah in total (may Allah be pleased with them) that the one who deliberately and consciously does not offer an obligatory prayer until the time for it ends is a kaafir and an apostate. This is also the view of ‘Abd-Allah ibn al-Maajishoon, the companion of Maalik. And it was the view of ‘Abd al-Malik ibn Habeeb al-Andalusi and others.
It is narrated in al-Muhalla (2/15):
>He (may Allah have mercy on him) said: And it was narrated from ‘Umar, ‘Abd al-Rahmaan ibn ‘Awf, Mu’aadh ibn Jabal, Abu Hurayrah and others among the Sahaabah (may Allah be pleased with them) that the one who deliberately does not offer one obligatory prayer until the time for it ends is a kaafir and an apostate.
For those who are of the view that it is not kufr to leave the salah, how do you respond to the following narrations by Ibn Hazm? From the 2nd narration especially, it feels extremely clear that the one who misses even 1 prayer, is deemed a kafir. After all, the narration is very specific, however, I have pulled the following sources from this site: https://islamqa.info/en/answers/52923/is-the-person-who-prays-friday-prayer-only-not-a-kaafir , so I don't know how trustworthy this text even is.
Likewise, In matters of ikhtilaf, for example, if one follows the majority opinion that leaving the salah is not kufr, and is convinced by this, and he leaves the salah and is convinced that he's Muslim due to his following of that valid opinion, in the eyes of Allah, is he still deemed a kafir, or is he excused in this matter because had he known it was kufr, he would not leave the salah?

When praying the fard of Dhuhr/Zuhr and Asr salah in congregation behind the imam, the imam recites everything silently.
According to some websites, it is **[makrooh tahrimi](http://www.questionsonislam.com/node/13057)** to recite anything behind the imam during salah in the Hanafi madhab, be it silent or loud prayer.
However, they also state that reciting surah Fatiha during congregation is wajib in the Shaf'iee madhab.
Why do the 2 madhabs have such opposite rulings for this incidence?
**Question:** Do the muqtadis need to recite anything while praying behind the imam, i.e. surahs, salawat, dua e masura, whether it is during silent salah or loud salah?
Please answer from all 4 madhabs view in this with evidence to support each claim
