Salam I hope this finds you well. I have a question and hope you can provide and advice for me. My father and I were never close growing up I’ve always been the one to kind of force the relationship between us. It has come to a point where I don’t really care about our relationship as long as I’ve done my duties in Islam I’m good with it. Our relationship wasn’t only not there it became bad because he is terrible to my mom and I hear him insults her I’ve never seen him beat her but I’ve seen scars and broken things around the house.and he now he feels like I’ve sooo much resentment towards him that he feels I’m disrespectful towards and I can swear by Allah I’ve never done anything to hurt him purposely or disrespect and I try to keep my distance so I don’t give him chance to complain again but whenever I do that I get labeled as an ungrateful child because I don’t appreciate him being on earth, when I cry he calls me and yells whenever I try to do something to protect my self I get labeled as a bad person and he always use allah’s word to manipulate me into thinking I’m a bad person and I try my best to make both my parents happy so my question here is do I have to relate with my father without cutting ties?is it okay to have a relationship with him ne within a distance even is he complains or is it haram? And please I need advice on how to move on with my life without hurting him or myself

I have heard some people talk about a Darood called Darood Tanjina, to recite in Quran Khawani (in south asia like pakistan ppl gather to read quran). I can't find a reference of that Darood on net, what I found is according to this video it is a Bidah . if It is a innvoation why people read it thinking it will bring tranquality? Edit: for reference, what it is, I found it here (not confirmed personally if it or not but word tanjina occur in it)

What should you do If you cant' clean a place that you made unclean? If you for example step with your dirty shoes on a carpet or maybe put your dirty shoes on a chairseat but are unable to clean it because you can't enter that place anymore. I am scared that someone puts their hand or clothes on that place where I put my dirty shoe and that they get dirty and when they are going to pray their salah is unvalied because they touched dirt. What should I do I can't clean that place, should I make dua?

I work in the food department at target which contains a lot of brands that support and give money to israel, apart of my job is to put these products on the shelves, i don’t buy these products but i help put them out, should i quit my job?

A friends family member has passed and I was asked to make Dua. I’m not Muslim so I looked it up but am I allowed to do so? I didn’t want to be rude and reject without knowing for sure.

Usually while making Du'a we raise hands. But right after Tashahud and Darood-e-Ibrahim in salah before we say "Assalamu Alaikum..." turning both sides (Taslim) 1. because even that is Du'a, why don't we raise our hands? 2. If some school of thought does it, which school of thought practice it?

I know that Islam treats women with honor and that they are privilaged to be modest and such. However I do not see this reflected onto slave women who were instead obliged to only cover from navel to the knee. here is a hadith that I find troubling: أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ: " كُنَّ إِمَاءُ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ يَخْدِمْنَنَا كَاشِفَاتٍ عَنْ شُعُورِهِنَّ تَضْرِبُ ثُدِيُّهُنَّ “Umar’s maids, may God be pleased with him, used to serve us, revealing their hair and stroking their breasts.” Imam al-Beyhaqi records in ‘Al-Sunnan al-Kubra’ Volume 2 page 227 Why are the slave girls made to be immodest among these men. Is this not dishonorable to them and a source of fitna?

Till, when he reached the setting-place of the sun, he found it setting in a muddy spring, and found a people thereabout. We said: O Dhu'l-Qarneyn! Either punish or show them kindness. First of all there's no ONE place where the sun sets since the earth is spherical. Second why do tafsirs of this verse add their opinions about what it means. Lastly, Muslims claim that since wajada can mean false or true perception,Dhul qurnanyn was clearly falsely perceiving the sun setting on the murky water. However the preceding verse clearly states that this is the place where the Sun sets. So how can he be wrong when he is in the right place ?

This question is for those who believe Music is forbiden (Haram). If someone hear music, is there any Kaffara (Expiation or atonement) mentioned in Islam to erase the sin ? The reason I am asking is we can control what we can see but like that we cannot control what we can hear. For example, when we travel we hear many things and music can be one of this. We cannot shut our ears like we can close our eyes. Jazzak Allahu Khaira

I am 14 currently and not yet become baaligh( mature) but I accidentally committed shirk when I posted a TikTok video believing it would give me good luck I have done this on many occasions and recently I came across a video claiming to make these are shirk I’m scared now because I have been unaware of what I was actually doing and now I have come to realise I have committed the biggest sin which Allah hates.Will it count yet even though I’m not baaligh? If yes where do I go from here?

Sometimes betting companies (who are of course bad) offer special promotions which gives you the chance to do *arbitrage* betting, meaning that it is possible to bet such that you win the same amount of money *regardless* of the outcome, if you bet the proper amount on different events. Is placing such a bet halal or haram? The money that you get does not depend on the outcome, moreover, you only take it from a betting company that ruins people. Also, if I *know* the outcome of an event for sure, is it allowed to bet on it at a betting company?

Why is Duff halal and dhol Haram in Islam,Duff and dhol is almost same?Duff is also a musical instrument,isn't it?so,why is it halal and other musical instruments are Haram?

As Salam alaikum. Unfortunately, I suffer from prostatitis. And sometimes there are feelings as if urine has dripped, sometimes it happens that it's just an instigation, and it happens that it has dripped. And when I was in the toilet today, I was washing myself and this feeling happened. It was like urine dripped, but I do not know if it really dripped, and if it dripped, where exactly on clothes. Absolutely no idea. What to do?

Salaam If your access to water is limited and if earth is covered with snow, can you use sanitizer for Tayammum? Shokra

In this verse, https://quran.com/7/143 , Prophet Musa requested Allah SWT to reveal Himself to him so that he can see Allah. Later this ayat tells that when Allah came up on mountain Sinai at the appointed time, it was crumbled to dust and His presence was so strong (I have been told that there was too much bright light) that Prophet Musa fell unconscious and could not see him. My question is that if Allah SWT is all strong and all supreme, He could have simply revealed Himself in a way that could have been perceptible by Prophet Musa. Allah SWT could have controlled the crumbling of the mountains and could have prevented the unconsciousness of Prophet Musa. In the next verse, https://quran.com/7/144 , Allah SWT mentioned that He has favored Prophet Musa above all. To quote "...he(Prophet Musa) has already been favored by Allah over the people of his time through prophethood and direct communication with the Almighty." This shows the love of Allah for Prophet Musa. If Prophet Musa was so dear and close to Allah SWT, then why didn't He fulfill the request of Prophet Musa if He is all supreme? Why didn't Allah reveal Himself to one of his dearest Prophets on his request?

Al-Kabeer is a name of Allah what about Akbar? Can we say it's not a name of Allah if it's not found in the Quran or Sunnah or should we need to say I cannot affirm it because it's not found in Quran or Sunnah. In this situation can a Muslim deny this as name of Allah because it's not found in the Quran or Sunnah is it kufur? Because we know Allah has many names and We know few of them through Quran and Sunnah we don't know remaining.

We are told that no one will be punished for another person's sins. However when Adam (as) and Hawa (Eve) went against Allah (swt) instructions and ate from the forbidden tree, they were sent on Earth as a punishment and test. Now, the rest of mankind did not eat from the forbidden tree, then why are we on Earth and being tested if this was a punishment for their wrong doing? Also if a person does something evil, we are told we will always pay for our wrong doing (unless we repent). We might pay for our wrong doing in this dunya or in the hereafter. There are many ways we can be punished in this dunya, e.g. through our wealth, health or even children. Now, why are the children being punished e.g. by being afflicted by a disability because of their parent's wrong doing?

> The believers are only those who believe in Allah and His Messenger > and, when they are [meeting] with him for a matter of common interest, > do not depart until they have asked his permission. **Indeed, those > who ask your permission, [O Muhammad] – those are the ones who believe > in Allah and His Messenger**. So when they ask your permission due to > something of their affairs, then give permission to whom you will > among them and ask forgiveness for them of Allah. Indeed, Allah is > Forgiving and Merciful. ( An-Nur : 62) It says here that those who ask permission to leave are believers. But we know that the hypocrites also asked the Prophet for permission to stay at home during the jihad: > Allah has pardoned you, why did you give them > permission [to remain behind]? [You should not have] until it was > evident to you who were truthful and you knew [who were] the liars. > ( At-Tawbah : 43) Maybe I didn't understand something in this verse 24:62, so I turn to the knowledgeable for clarification. Does this verse mean that every person who asked permission from the Prophet was a believer? If not, why not?

Now that war is going on in the middle east, whole over the world people across religion, caste and creed are praying for the children killed in the war. But no one seems to pray for the killers, that is Israeli Army. We know the fate of children killed in war, they are guarenteed to be in Paradise as they never did any sin. But what about those who are doing the killings, that is the Israeli Army. I feel pity for them as I think their fate is Hell, if they do not repent. So can I pray for the Israeli Army, So that they are guided to truth, at least to what is mentioned in Old testament ? My question is specific to Israeli Army, so the other questions do not answer my question.

For example, a person committed tawbah for shirk, repented never to return to it, but at the same time he commits other sins. (Listening to music, watching movies, committing adultery) Would his tauba be valid?
