I'm a young Muslim women living in a non Muslim country and have been struggling with what to wear recently. Usually I have and do wear mens clothes from siblings or I just buy them for reasons of modesty and comfort. I did not think much of it at first as it isnt noticeable that they are exclusively mens clothes. I have tried doing research on cross dressing for women in the quran however I'm not sure it's the right search as it is absolutely clear I am a girl, still however it is usually unclear as it mostly talks about men dressing like women and not the other way around.

i would like to ask whether there is anyway that my dua could be answered after eating haraam food. I have promised to allah that i will never eat it ever again. I have been eating for around a year at school in 6th grade, secretly. Would my dua ever be accepted as i heard of a hadith saying dua wont be accepted for 40 days if **a morsel**is eaten. May allah reward the answerer of this question jannatul firdows.

let's say I'm using a bus, and to my destination I have a transit. Do I have to repeat the dua again on the second bus? or just once for a trip?

When it is said that the Dua of the oppressed will be accepted, does that mean if an enemy harms you, any Dua you make on that person will be accepted, even if it is negative?

I cam across this [Hadith - Chapters Regarding Funerals - Sunan Ibn Majah](http://sunnah.com/urn/1289870) >for Allah has forbidden the earth to consume the bodies of the Prophets Which is classified as Da'if. And in [Earth Does Not Consume Prophet's Body - Islamhelpline](http://islamhelpline.net/node/2771) >The above **authentic** hadith specifically mentions that the earth does not consume .... I would like to ask if this narration is true or false because I was about to write an article on it. Is there any hint from Quran?

Is this durood enough for the reward Allahumma salli wa sallim alaa nabbiyina Muhammad (ﷺ) should I add ﷺ at the end? Jazakallahu khair

Allah Almighty has said people will get what they wish for in Jannah or Heaven. What if you wish for a woman who is someone else's wife? And The woman also want to be with you, What will be the decision of Allah? Plz answer me with Proves.

I'm aware there are 3 types: 1. I'll buy and then rent it to you and you pay it off slowly 2. I'll buy it and sell it to you for higher price 3. I'll buy and sell it loss/profit will be shared 3 and 1 are completely ok. But the most popular option that is 2 is sold as halal, But I'll argue it's anything but that. The bank buys the house AND then you are required to buy the home at higher price. The transaction up until the bank buys the house is not controversial. Whether bank or another seller owns it, it doesn't matter. The problem is that bank REQUIRES you to buy the house before their purchase of it. So instead of saying - I'll give you $100 - you will give me back $150 BANK > $ > YOU > $$ > BANK It basically adds an extra step - I'll buy this box for you for $100 - But then you will have to buy it from me at $150 BANK > $ > HOUSE > YOU > $$ > BANK > HOUSE Interest is paying more than what you owe. Which can be phrased, requiring you to pay more than what you got. Similarly, you got a house that is $100, and you will be required to pay $150.

I thought that the word Greatest and God cannot be used together in a sentence because the meaning might come out wrong So I used to avoid saying “Allah is the Greatest God” Rather used to say them separately like “Allah is the Greatest and He is the only God” Does this make me a sinner ? And if so What is the name of the sin?

This has been on my mind for a while. It's said that as Muslims we fast during the blessed month of Ramadan to achieve a greater closeness to Allah and better ourselves as muslims and people. So then why is it that if somebody chooses to leave their fast they are punished so harshly by Allah? Surely it's their loss and while I don't encourage leaving fasts I'm a little confused as to why not fasting is punished so severely since as long as they are not leaving their fasts to sin and they still pray 5 times a day they are not doing anything "wrong" there is just a lack of them doing "rightful" things so they miss out on sawab at their own loss.

Salam, I’m in really desperate need for help. Basically I have a student loan which have interest I repented from it but it’s the only money I have to live. I don’t live with family and they can’t give me money much, I don’t have work and it’s difficult working with no degree, I took it out of necessary. Anyways, I also missed some days of Ramadan and had to pay a certain amount of money because fasting for 4 months ( since I can’t remember if I missed two or 1 day) it would make me quite ill, I decided to pay the money from the riba money I own. Is this sin paid off? :( please help me ...I’m hopeless .. don’t have any money to pay it off and I don’t want the sin of the missed days

Assalamwalaikum. I met a guy, and we have known each other for 5 months now. It felt like an instant connection, we clicked. We really wanted to marry and spend our lives together. We both felt right for each other. I was attracted to him both in terms of his appearance, as well as his character and deen. We decided on praying istekhara. The istekhara only made my belief stronger about marrying him, i really want to spend my days here and the hereafter with him. But his istekhara resulted differently. Removing me from his life, puts him at more ease, and as a consequence, he ended things with me. He is divorced, and he thinks that the stigma of that will put him at a place, where he moved on from with great difficulty. He doesn't want my parents or anyone to tarnish his character. I respect his decision, but i really want to have a content married life with him inshallah, that's what i feel. But then i also think, that maybe his istekhara resulted in this because it may not be the right time for us, Allah knows best. I have requested him to continue praying istekhara, and i will too. Although i really make dua to Allah swt, that he brings him back into my life. Is that wrong of me to do? Does that mean I'm questioning Allah's qadr?

I am seeing this saying quoted quite often nowadays, that is attributed to Hazrat Ali (R.A.) > If you cannot prevent an oppression, at least announce it to everyone? Does this saying really belong to Hazrat Ali (R.A.)? If so, where is it documented, and can you also include original Arabic saying? If not, does this saying belong to another credible Islamic figure?

This is one of the biggest dilemmas I have to face in my entire life, and I have researched online for an answer but I could not find a clear reason or answer for my question. So basically I am 20 years old and I am running a successful E-commerce store where I sell a product by mass marketing it on large pages on Instagram. This business has the potential to change my life as whenever I use this advertisement, I end up making alot of money. The thing is however, the video contains the words “f it” basically in the context where the person is fed up and saying screw this, not offending anyone or anything,its just a phrase to showcase a certain emotion in order to show the product I am selling properly. The f word in this context isn’t used to offend or curse anyone but simply there, I would like to know if I use this ad will it be haram for me and would I be earning haram money? Really need your help with this.

I saw a video on Facebook of a marriage ceremony where the wife was being too touchy with husband's friend. After seeing the video I wished the marriage should break. I don't know what came to me. I regret what I said. Will Allah forgive me?

Recently my brother bought me a islamic book called dont be sad by dr aid al qarni That is the book and it has a lot quranic verses in English So I was wondering if I could read this book without wudu given that this book is for muslim and non muslim

In [two places](https://corpus.quran.com/qurandictionary.jsp?q=rfv#(2:187:5)) Allah (SWT) talks about رَفَثَ. And [almaany.com](https://www.almaany.com/ar/dict/ar-ar/%D8%B1%D9%81%D8%AB/) defines it as کلام قبیح among other things. But I am not Arab and I don't understand its true meaning. Does this mean *dirty talking*? Is it a permission given by Allah to spouses to have dirty talking with each other?

Having bad thoughts or bad words thoughts about parents will Allah punish such person ? Is it a sin?

Assalamu Alaikum. I am really scared about this. The thing is that Me and someone else (a fellow) transgressed against someone's right. He gave me an idea and i just remained silent and he did the transgression (so i am also involved in this). Now after being guided it has come to my mind that i should apologize to the person whose right we transgressed against and also restore his right in some way if possible but by telling him that we did such a thing would expose the fellow with whom i trangressed . **So should I hide his sin or apologize to the person by exposing him?**

The following hadith says: > Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) said: > > The Messenger of > Allah (ﷺ) said: "A man (from amongst the people before you) said: > 'Indeed! I will give in charity.' So he took his Sadaqah out and > placed it in a thief's hand. > > In the morning the people were talking > (about this incident) and saying: 'Sadaqah was given to a thief last > night.' The man said: 'O Allah! Praise be to You. I have given Sadaqah > to a thief. Indeed, I will give in charity!' So he took his Sadaqah > out and he placed it in a prostitute's hand. > > In the morning the people > were talking (about this incident) and saying: 'Sadaqah was given to a > prostitute last night.' On hearing this, the man said: 'Praise be to > You, O Allah! I gave Sadaqah to a prostitute. > > Indeed, I will give in > charity!' So he took his Sadaqah out and placed it in a rich man's > hand. In the morning the people were talking (about this incident) and > saying: 'Sadaqah was given to a rich man last night.' The man said: 'O > Allah! Praise be to You (for helping me) give charity to a thief, a > prostitute and a rich man.' > > Then he had a dream in which he was told > that his Sadaqah to the thief might result in his refraining from his > theft, his Sadaqah to the prostitute might help her abstain from her > immorality, and his Sadaqah to the rich man might help him pay heed > and spend from what Allah had bestowed upon him." > >[ \[Al- Bukhari\]][1] . This hadith seems to imply that giving money to a rich person is sadaqah. However, it is unclear if this rule apply to the Ummah because it may be a story about people of other prophets (the rules revealed to other prophets don't apply to us). Is giving gifts or money to a rich person regarded as Sadaqah?
