Metal and Non-metal Health Wearable and body implants

Assalamwalekum,
I’m a Developer and I plan to build a smart wearable band to track health related data and analyse them using AI model. The wearable devices that I plan to build are as followed:
1. Metal or Silicon wrist band
2. Glucose meter (plastic)
3. Similar products
Apart from that, I plan to implant a microchip & a microprocessor into my body (hand) and will not be visible as it will be inside the body. Now most processors use gold but I’m seeking alternatives.
My questions are:
1. Are metal wrist band halal to everyone? If yes then which metals are halal for male and female?
2. Electronic uses Gold, Copper and other metals in their circuit boards (I will 100% avoid toxic metals like Lead and other). What about that?
3. Now for body implants, will it be halal (they will be hidden and so can’t be used for fashion purposes). Which metals will be considered Halal.
My plans are to build a Halal Health Solution (except the body implantation thing, that is only for me).
Help me out, please.

As Salamuwalikum rahmatullahi barakatuh. I have question regarding Quran 886:5-7. I have seen many argument for and against this verse.
Here is couple explanation
1: semen is produced in seminal vesical and prostate gland. Both of which are in between backbone and ribs. (Between backbone and ribs is thoracic region (i.e heart, lungs etc.) how is this between backbones and ribs.
2. It's referring to human not fluid as ibn atiyyah and Iman qurtubi mentions in their tafsir. But again the question is; baby is located in abdominal region not backbone and ribs (thoracic region).
What am I missing here? Please someone help me. Jazakallah Khair

We know that in Quran the surahs are ordered in a certain way, but the chronological order of the revelation of the surahs is different. (One can see that in here .)
My questions are:
1) Are ayahs inside a surah ordered according to revelation of them?
2) Surahs have a revelation order. But was it the case that one surah was revealed completely? In other words, were the ayahs revealed randomly and later composed in particular surahs the way scholars saw fit?
3) Did prophet Muhammed (PBUH) approved or had any say about the present composition/structure of the entire book?
Additionally I am interested to know the process of collecting and ordering the ayahs/surahs to the present format.

First off I have to say that I am not a muslim. I'm an orthodox Christian.
Some time ago I dreamt that I was in my bedroom and there was something like a ghost that I could sense, I was feeling comfortable and protected like i had some kind of relationship with it. Then I saw he was writing things that i cannot remember now in walls and in small pieces of paper. Then I saw him in front of me as a big smoky shadow; then I woke up.
A muslim friend has told me kayer after I saw this dream that it probably was a jinn. I knew nothing about jinns before he mentioned them. Never heard of them. Since then I have dreamt of many random things every night. Also I often hear noises at night such as knocking from a closet in my room etc. Since I was younger I could feel the presence of someone invisible.
Some facts are about me ar : I am a loner. I have some kind of social anxiety and when I'm in a crowd out with friends etc I feel I want to run away to go home. I took almost 2 years to get into a relationship. Since young I had a luck with money or things I wanted. Whenever I ask for something for a help etc I always get it. It's kind of creepy. It's like I have everything but alone. Well I don't have a particular question but I don't know much about jinns and islam so if anyone is interested in telling me about my case please do so.
Also ı want to add that since the age of 5 I was having nightmares like I'm getting killed. I have seen them many times. Like shooting me and waking up thinking I was shot in soul and I need yo get in the hospital or train would run over me or watching my self dead.

How can I control my sexual urges since I am unmarried and single?

Assalamualikum brother and sister,
I am so ashamed to ask for a solution to my problem, but I hope I can get an answer.
When I was like around 12 years old, I was sexually harassed by a married man. That time, I didn't knew anything about sex or about kissing. So, I was harassed for a few months and I never protested or pushed away that man because I didn't knew what he was doing to me. The only that I knew was that I hated what he was doing to me.
After a few years after the sexual harassment, I got to know about sex and began to regret everything that he did to me. I began to feel impure. We never had sex or he never saw me naked. But he did touch me and that made me feel so impure that I couldn't stop him from doing those things to me because I didn't know what he was doing to me.
After that, I began to get high sexual urges. I tried to stop myself, but I had friends who would read books containing mature scenes. I began to read books with mature scenes and my sexual urges began to rise more. I didn't want to have sex before marriage as it is haram, so I began to write books where I wrote highly sexual scenes. I even watched videos with highly mature scenes.
A few months after I wrote those books and published it only under my pen name, I felt guilty and I stopped writing those books. I even stopped watching those mature scene videos and I kept myself busy which is why I stopped having such urges.
But recently, I am 18 and even though I am busy, I get really sexual urges. I don't want to commit the sin of having sex before marriage, but, I don't want to get married right now. I know that marriage is a solution but I feel like I am too young for marriage and I feel so impure and ashamed of myself. I even feel like when I get married in future, Insha Allah, my husband might hate me.
I don't know what to do, so it would be helpful if you have an answer for me.

In my limited understanding of Judaism, Jews are waiting for the Messiah to come and restore Judaism as the unique faith, bringing peace to the world. For Jews, the Messiah has not yet come.
Meanwhile, Christians consider Jesus to be that Messiah, and are waiting for Jesus to come again at the end of times.
Do Muslims believe a Messiah will come at the end of times? Which Surahs and verses refer to these events?

Is writing fiction novel Haram in Islam? What about writing romance genre?
I intend to write a dark story, you know, a tragedy. Therefore there will be for sure bad guys in my story. There will be violence and bad language used.

I intend to write a dark story, you know, a tragedy. Therefore there will be for sure bad guys in my story. There will be violence and bad language used. A lot of bad things will happen to the main character to make people sympathize with the character more.
I have heard that you can't write about things like faashiha/fahish (abusive language and gambling, etc).
My point is that if all I can write are good thing? That won't make anything interesting at all. Villains do like, gamble, kill and rape, etc.
I have moral for the story and for that I have to put the main character in a cruel and harsh setting. Is that allowed in islam? Nothing I write will say anything against Islamic rules - like saying gambling is right, etc.
What about the kind of clothes the character can wear?
I want to make my characters cool!
Specifically, female. I know that females should wear clothes that don't show too much skin. The thing is, I don't want my character to wear abaya in the story. It would be weird as my story isn't focusing on religion. It is focused on morals.

Ibn Kathir records:
“Ibn Asakir has narrated under the events of Muawiyah’s slave Khadij al Hazi that Muawiyah bought a fair complexioned and beautiful slave-girl and he (Khadij) undressed her and brought her before Muawiyah, he was carrying a stick in his hand and began bowing towards her vagina and said: “I wish this vagina was for me; take her to Yazeed bin Muawyah.” He then said “No! Call Rabi’ bin Umro al Qarshi”. He (Rabi) was a jurist (Faqih). When he came, Muawiyah asked him: “This slave-girl has been brought before me in a naked condition and I have seen her here and there, I want to send her to Yazeed”. He said: “O commander of faithful! Don’t do this. This is inappropriate”. Muawiyah said: “Your suggestion is correct”. The narrator says that Muawiyah then gifted her to the servant of Fatima, daughter of Holy Prophet [s] namely Abdullah bin Mas’adat Fazari who was black and Muawiyah told him: “Make your children white through her”.
Al Badayah wal Niahayh (Urdu), Vol 8 page 992 ‘Wives and sons of Muawyah’ published by Nafees Academy Karachi.
If this is true that means muawiyah allowed Khadij al hazi to see a woman he does not own in her private areas. How is this justified?
Thank you for your response
