In Jannah will everyone be white
Theres this hadith saying people in Jannah will have white skin “The people of Paradise will enter Paradise without any hair on their body, beardless, with a fair complexion and curly hair, having kohl (collyrium) in their eyes, aged thirty-three years, and they will be in the form of Aadam, sixty c...
Theres this hadith saying people in Jannah will have white skin “The people of Paradise will enter Paradise without any hair on their body, beardless, with a fair complexion and curly hair, having kohl (collyrium) in their eyes, aged thirty-three years, and they will be in the form of Aadam, sixty cubits tall.” but then theres also this hadith: On the night of my Ascent to Heaven, I saw Moosa (Moses), who was a tall, brown man... Sahih al-Bukhari 3438 Are they contradictory? Also is it true all people in Jannah will be white? The arabic version of the hadith I showed first is: حدثنا يزيد، أخبرنا حماد بن سلمة، عن علي بن زيد، عن سعيد بن المسيب، عن أبي هريرة، عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، قال: يدخل أهل الجنة الجنة جردًا، مردًا، بيضًا، جعادًا، مكحلين، أبناء ثلاث وثلاثين، على خلق آدم، ستون ذراعًا في عرض سبع أذرع.

Where was Noah's wife during the flood?
Where was Noah's wife during the flood? Was she on board the ship with Noah or not? The fact that Prophet Noah (PBUH) prayed to G-d during the flood to save his son and only requested for his son and doesn't include his wife in that request could only mean one of two things.

Is it true that a reason a womans testimony is half in money is because women weren't involved in money related things?

What is the explanation of Sunan Abi Dawud 2146?
This is a [hadith][1] by Iyas ibn Abdullah >Iyas ibn Abdullah ibn Abu Dhubab reported the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) as saying: > >Do not beat Allah's handmaidens, but when Umar came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: Women have become emboldened towards their husbands, he (the Prophet) gave permis...
This is a hadith by Iyas ibn Abdullah >Iyas ibn Abdullah ibn Abu Dhubab reported the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) as saying: > >Do not beat Allah's handmaidens, but when Umar came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: Women have become emboldened towards their husbands, he (the Prophet) gave permission to beat them. Then many women came round the family of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) complaining against their husbands. So the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Many women have gone round Muhammad's family complaining against their husbands. **They are not the best among you.** I can't understand who is "They are not the best among you" is referring to. Is it the woman who are complaining about there husbands or it is there husbands who are beating them.

Assalamu Alaikum, What is the meaning of "ذ‌‍ٰلك" in Quran 2:2? Many or even all Quran translaters have translated it as "This". But in an Arabic-English I found Arabic word for "This" is "ذا" or "هذا". And word "ذٰلك" in not present in the dictionary and it appears to be a combination of two words; "ذا" (this) and "لك" (yours). So why it is not translated as "This yours"? Please can you explain me its real meaning or why/how it is translated as "This", as I have very less knowledge of Arabic language. I shall be very thankful to you.

Can we go against this consensus? Please answer with references from the early days and also from those who established a consensus of essentiality.

Can women testify in crimes other than Hudood and Qisas?
Is it true that women cant testify for crimes unless the man is testifying alongside them? Or that the criminal isnt punished if the witnesses were women? I already know a womans testimony isnt accepted for hudud or qisas, but what about other punishments?

I sometimes come across claims that many of the obligations that Muslims have in Islam are a purely personal matter and were not legally enforced, historically. It's not quite clear to me which obligations fall into which category ("purely personal" vs "can/used to be legally enforced"), or whether it's even the case that all behaviors that are fardh can be legally enforced via tazir punishments in case someone does not act on those obligations. I might ask about that in a separate question. Here I'm specifically wondering about whether the obligation to wear hijab in public can be enforced legally in sharia by the government, perhaps via tazir punishments (or any other way), and when and where it generally was enforced, historically?

Did God create without limitations?
We know that Allah is the creator of everything, and we also know in many verses and hadiths that Allah's Arsh is the greatest being.

We know that Allah is the creator of everything, and we also know in many verses and hadiths that Allah's Arsh is the greatest being. The question is, can Allah potentially create something greater than Arsh? Or is the Arsh only the limit for some of his creatures and not all creatures? Or is the Arsh already finalized and it is no longer possible for there to be a creation that in principle exceeds the Arsh? Apologies if this question is too outrageous and ambiguous, wassalamu'alaikum.

Do I have to perform ghusl after that and wash my clothes? 2. When I urinate, sometimes I noticed a sperm-like fluid coming from my penis, its color is white and it is also thick like sperm, but I do not feel any type of pleasure as I feel during ejaculation, do I need to perform ghusl?

I am a widow, I lost my husband 2 months ago, he was suffering from cancer. We have twin 7 year old boys. I love my husband and he loved me very much and I was his only one wife in his life. He was a good Muslim and he helped me how to be a good wife and good Muslimah. I am a young mother and widow, I don’t have anything except my boys and USA citizenship. I live in New York. I have to go long way to educate my 7 year old boys, I will do everything for them, I don't have any helping hand here except Allah and it is enough for me. I love my husband and everyday I am trying to be a good widow and good Muslimah. It is hard as a single young mother, but I am doing better everyday. **Question:** Is it possible for a good widow, if both of us go to paradise, to have my husband only for me? Because I don't want my husband being shared with other paradise wives or houri (I heard every man will have 2 wives in paradise.) Please answer me.

I'm muslim and I'm so proud of being muslim on this world. I have some simple questions which that never answered before. I'm a student and I still don't have a job because I'm Studying. Anyway, here is my questions... 1-I'm into arts and language, I love fashion and desing too. I sometimes look to female models to keep up with latest trends (I'm a boy) and fine arts, photography. But sometimes I saw some models that they're wearing transparent clothes to highlight the overall looking (companies want, and They're trying to show the natural body) and when i saw, I really really don't get affected (about sexual and bad things, bad humour) I'm just rating the model and his look with her clothes and I Save them to my collection (which I will draw all of them, I like it and this don't affects me sexually, I love this perk I have) does it harm? (I'm not a pervert, I'm Just trying to build a future job, an opportunity to myself) 2- What about nude modelling? I saw once but when I saw, I'm turning my glance to the other side of model (because I don't know if it is harm or not, and I'm also not effected by models, they're just making composition) does it harm to look at them? Because I'm trying to understand the shapes, heights, anatomy and naturality of women and other stuff (this is not effects me sexual, never effected me) so can I look them and get inspired for my projects and work? Thank Y'all! ( ps: I'm not trying to alter Islam to fit into something, I love Islam and those content is not affect me sexual - I mentioned above.)

Paying bribe to get a license

I tried to get a license the normal way but was refused and told that my fathers immigration status wouldn’t work for me to get a license even though i was under 18 and a dependent of my parents. Since I was under 18, I couldn’t get my own status until I turned 18. I went twice, but the result was the same, so I stopped worrying about it and moved on with my life. I drove for almost a year, but then I got caught speeding and was cited for driving without a license. Now, I need to get a license before my court date because, if I can show the judge that I have a license, he will dismiss the case with just a fine for speeding and for driving without a license. I can pay a bribe to get a license now, though I could have done it before. However, I didn’t because it’s haram. But now, since it’s a necessity, my question is: Can I pay the bribe, or will it still be considered a haram? Note: Even if I pay the bribe, I would still have to take the written test, get a permit, and then take the driving test. Essentially, I would go through the normal process even after paying the bribe, so it’s not like I’m just paying to get my license made without knowing the laws or how to drive. When the local imam was asked about this matter as some other people got license paying bribe even though they didn’t get caught they just got, he said that since it’s a necessity and there is no other way of getting it due to the immigration status issue, it is permissible. NOTE: Immigration is a major issue here and when it comes to it nothing is guaranteed and or when it will happen.
