Torment of grave
As it is said that as the person dies, the torment in his grave starts so the people who have died much earlier then will their torment be much greater than those people who died recently?

There are TV shows or entertainment shows like wwe where some ppl have mocked Allah in the past by attributing themsleves to Allah or mocking Allah straight up and shows like his have a large Muslim audience.

And does the same ruling apply to soap operas that have mocked Islam unintentionally or deliberately

Is income from my own halal game valid if I work at a studio using pirated tools?

Salaam everyone! I need some advice on a halal income situation.
I work at a game studio where, unfortunately, they use pirated software. I’m just an employee and follow the tasks my employer gives me — I don’t own the company or choose the tools.
Now, I’m planning to take an interest-free loan from this company (they’ll deduct it monthly from my salary) to build my own personal PC.
On that PC, I plan to create my own independent games using only authentic and legally purchased tools— no piracy, no inappropriate content — fully clean.
Once I launch those games and start earning from them, will that income be 100% halal? Or is there a gray area I should be aware of?
I’d really appreciate your insights. JazakAllah khair!

Whose opinions are more acceptable: Mutaqaddimīn) or Muta’akhkhirīn?
Someone is claiming to me that if there is a difference of opinion in fiqh between an early scholar (Mutaqaddim) and a later scholar (Muta’akhkhir), then the opinion or fatwa of the early scholar must be accepted, and the later scholar’s opinion should be considered invalid. Is this actually true? A...
Someone is claiming to me that if there is a difference of opinion in fiqh between an early scholar (Mutaqaddim) and a later scholar (Muta’akhkhir), then the opinion or fatwa of the early scholar must be accepted, and the later scholar’s opinion should be considered invalid. Is this actually true?
Are the early scholars always more knowledgeable than the later scholars in all cases? Even if the two scholars belong to different madhhabs, is it still necessary to follow the opinion of the earlier scholar?”**

What is the hierarchy of sins?
Imam Al-Nawawi, in his *Minhaj at-Talibin,* writes: > A person suffering from hunger who finds a corpse, and at the same time eatables not forbidden but belonging to another, should, according to our school, eat the corpse, rather then take the eatables that do not belong to him. This translation is...
Imam Al-Nawawi, in his *Minhaj at-Talibin,* writes:
> A person suffering from hunger who finds a corpse, and at the same time eatables not forbidden but belonging to another, should, according to our school, eat the corpse, rather then take the eatables that do not belong to him.
This translation is bothersome because it at first appears as though he is speaking about human corpses. Within proper context however, it is clear he is speaking about animal corpses, i.e. carrion. However, this got me thinking about such a situation: in cases of absolute necessity, is it better to eat human corpses than to steal?
We know that in cases of necessity, the *haram* becomes *halal.* However, this ruling is confusing, because it is not as though everything that is haram automatically becomes halal; some things become *halal,* and other things stay *haram.* Al-Nawawi makes it clear that eating unlawful food is a lesser sin than stealing property. This seems to prove the existence of a hierarchy of sins, in which eating unlawful food ranks as a better deed than stealing someone’s property.
Is there a full hierarchy of sins? If so, where can I find it?

Is calling your own best friend stupid, or just making fun of their own forehead a sin?
I have a best friend I always call online, and for some reason he just starts to call me stuff like "idiot", "stupid" etc. And it kinda does go on my nerves, because I did discuss about it to him, that it's not being funny anymore and just a thing that makes us more separate.

I have a best friend I always call online, and for some reason he just starts to call me stuff like "idiot", "stupid" etc. And it kinda does go on my nerves, because I did discuss about it to him, that it's not being funny anymore and just a thing that makes us more separate. I'm a type of guy that would never leave a friend, or even block them, and he always blocks me for a few days and just randomly unblocks me and completely ignoring the fact that he blocks me like almost every day, which does pisses me off, but I control it. Forgot to say he is muslim himself and I am too. Idk if he has anger issues and stuff like that, and i'm afraid of how this is going to end up with if he keeps doing the same thing and just slowly getting worse day by day.
Sorry if I don't make sense.

As-salamu alaykum
On internet I made a friend(Man A) and we were on good terms with each other.
One day what happened was he went through something bad and to make him feel good and relieved I said something but he took it the wrong way and misunderstood what I meant.
He did get angry at it and blocked me immediately, during then I wanted to apologize and I did realise that I should have said it in a better way.
Couple of days later one of my other friend(Man B) came online after a long time so I asked if I can talk to Man A and he sent me a screenshot where he still was angry at me and was not willing to talk even tho he was explained of the situation.
So my question is if I am still sinful?

Assalamualikum,
Iam a 18 year old Muslim girl student seeking for help in this platform I found out on the internet. It would be helpful if you give me proper advice for my situation.
My name is Sophia Usrat. I found out on the Google that Usrat means poverty, hardship. But in chatgpt it shows it means Family. Iam confused does my name carry any bad meaning.I asked my parents about that they told me they got the name from an islamic name book and it means something good. They told me not to worry about it. But as a Muslim girl who is concerned about consequences of Islam that every name should me meaningful. I feel exhausted about this.
I hope that you would be able to give me proper advice for this situation. And if the name has bad meaning should we change it ?

Body in the hereafter
i understand that the body that we get resurrected with will be exactly the same body that experienced this world. In Jannah, our bodies are said to be perfected, Does this mean that it will be an entirely new body? or the same body just transformed? (kind of like if a surgery was done).

,
Am I able to pray earlier before all the men pray? They use it at its designated times and I know it isn’t permissible to pray earlier but in this situation I’m really not sure on what to do.
If I go in earlier before all of them and pray is this allowed?
Or should I pray my rakat at home for all the prayers I missed?
Please advise
