The main focus for the position currently being offered is development and maintenance of our Customer Relationship Management (CRM) product. The CRM product forms the backbone for our online gaming customers. The CRM links together player account information, transactions (deposits/withdrawals), customer support, and APIs with 3rd party game providers.
I am a software developer and I have been offered the following position in an online betting platform
The high-level task list of the CRM team is to:
develop new modules for our CRM product
maintain and debug modules in the CRM product
integrate with 3rd party APIs
complete other C++ coding projects outside the CRM base as needed.
The majority of EAS products are database-driven. Working knowledge of SQL querying and basic DB schema is a must: all applicants must know how to connect to, query, and fetch/process results from a database as well as update records in order to be eligible for this position.
I thought since I'm not directly involved with the betting platform itself this might be okay, but since I'm not sure, I wanted to ask if it is halal or not?

Al-salam alaikum warahmtullahi wabarakatuhu. As we all know, by consensus shaving the beard is Haram except for a small opinion within the Maliki madhab I think?
My question is; is it permissible for one to shave his beard in case of coercion in the form of parents threatening to divorce over it (it is silly yes but there are some mentally unstable people like that) and/or the threat of being kicked out of those house into streets (when the threat is real, ie: when someone has already been kicked out for a short while for the reason of not shaving their beard.)
JazakAllah khairan.

Is celebrating New Year's Eve (according to the Gregorian calendar) haram?

Assalamu alaikum. I have this problem - my family always celebrates New Year by gathering at my grandparents' house around the table and setting off fireworks. However, I've reached a dead end thinking about whether celebrating the New Year is haram. In the internet, some people write that it is, while others say it isn't.
On the one hand, it's true that the New Year was established on January 1st by Julius Caesar in honor of some pagan god, and New Year is mainly celebrated by non-Muslims, so, in a way, one could say that by celebrating the New Year, you are imitating the disbelievers.
But on the other hand, the modern New Year is a secular holiday, and its celebration has become a tradition among a huge number of Muslims, and it might be said that we celebrate it simply because of the start of a new year, we gather with family, talk, and don't do anything forbidden.
P.S. I know definetely that celebration of Christmas is haram because by celebrating it, you are indirectly saying that Allah was born on December 25. But it's not a problem for me, because almost no one in my region celebrates Christmas, unlike the New Year...

Would such a ruler with such power & responsibilities wake themselves up on time or was this really a part of the Islamic job and state function of the Islamic Vizier!?

Will someone who offered isha + entire taraweeh in congregation, but not witr or fajr in congregation, still get the reward of all night qayam?
If I offered isha prayer and then qayam (taraweeh) behind the imam, but didn't do the witr (though still sat in the masjid), because I want to offer tahajjud at home later, will I still get the reward of the qayam for the entire night?

If I offered isha prayer and then qayam (taraweeh) behind the imam, but didn't do the witr (though still sat in the masjid), because I want to offer tahajjud at home later, will I still get the reward of the qayam for the entire night?
I am confused because I have heard of two hadiths. One according to which, if one offers isha and entire qayam behind imam in congregation, one gets the reward of the whole night's qayam (even if they offer fajr at home - I am a woman). And another hadith according to which, if one offers isha in congregation and fajr in congregation, one gets the reward of praying all night. **So which one is it?**
It's important for me because (a) I am a woman (b) The security situation is not that great where I live (c) the masjid is far.
A quick, clear answer based on authentic hadiths/ quran is highly sought and appreciated, as I have to decide whether I should go to offer fajr in congregation or not?

Someone claimed that Abu Abdullah al-Halimi considered it obligatory (wājib) for the master to obtain the slave girl’s consent before having intercourse with her. According to him, it is compulsory upon the master to refrain from touching her without her permission.
How true is his claim? Actually, I do not understand Arabic, so it is not possible for me to know whether their translations are correct or wrong.
Imam Abu Abdullah al-Halimi (d. 403 AH) said:
>وإن اشترى جارية فكرهت أن يمسها أو يضاجعها، فلا يمسها ولا يضاجعها ولا يطأها إلا بإذنها
>
> If someone buys a slave girl, and she dislikes that he touches or has intimacy with her, then that he should not touch her or have intimacy with her or have intercourse with her without her permission.
>

Clarity about second part of Hadith
Sahih Al-Bukhari 3508: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "If somebody claims to be the son of any other than his real father knowingly, he but disbelieves in Allah, and if somebody claims to belong to some folk to whom he does not belong, let such a person take his place in the (Hell) Fire."

Sahih Al-Bukhari 3508:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "If somebody claims to be the son of any other than his real father knowingly, he but disbelieves in Allah, and if somebody claims to belong to some folk to whom he does not belong, let such a person take his place in the (Hell) Fire."
My question is about second part of hadith.How you define folk or tribe? Here in indo-pak , caste system exists which is not found in Arabia. And most of people in Pakistan belonging to low caste convetred to some higher caste for social superiority as low caste are still humiliated a lot. Here caste are associated with their professions. Like merchants are called Sheikh, farmers are Arain, hair dresser are Malik, clothes maker Ansari, and hence Butt, Rajpoot , Jutt and etc.These are just few examples . But they all are convetred to Islam from Hinduism . And it's all not sure for many of people that so called superior caste people have been converted from low caste some 50 , 60 or 100 years ago from their ancestors. Now my question is simple, if anyone change its caste, does second part of a above Hadiths has any resemblance to this situation. As in Hadiths, word "qoum" is used which means folk , nationalism or tribe. But no any meaning of caste or profession make sense. My English is much poor. So kindly understand my point of view and answer me in simple wiring.

To my understanding when it comes to allahs attributes, they can be shared attributes with humans e.g allah exists, so do we. But because there is nothing like allah, the meaning of the attributes are shared but the actual reality of allahs existence and our one is completely different. With existence, we can say that allah exists and we exist, theres a similarity in meaning but the actual reality of allahs existence and our existence is different, so my question is that with allahs hand we know the reality of allahs hand, and our hand is completely different (just like existence), but what is the similarity in meaning
between allahs hands and our hands? (qadr mushtarak) if my question is hard to understand just say i will try and simplify, let me know if i have made blunders.
p.s i know some people have difference of opinions regarding allahs attributes so my question is specifically for people who believe in all of allahs attributes as i believe that position is correct.

What is the correct way to spell the Prophet's name in English?
What is the correct way to spell the Prophet's name? Muhammad, Mohammad, Muhammed, Mohammed, Mohamed, or Mohumed? Wikipedia spells it Muhammad (so does this site's tag: [tag:prophet-muhammad]), though I'm running into people with variations on the spelling quite often.
