Why did prophet Muhammad fast on ashura in pre-Islamic days?
Some Christians raise the question that the prophet used to keep fast of Ashura in pre-Islamic days till the time the series of revelations to Allah had not yet begun. So why He was adopting the methods of the Pagans

Fasting On The Forbidden Days
Assalamu Alaikum. I have been fasting for the past 4 days in anticipation for Ramadan but I never realised until now that it is forbidden to fast halfway through Sha’ban. Will I be sinned for doing these fasts and are they invalid? Jazak’Allah Khair.

I have a bad skin condition which requires me to put cream on my face 24 hours a day. If I don't use a face cream on my face, then it becomes red and dry and itchy. I finally found this cream that works on my face but is it halal?
I researched online and some people say it's ok and some people say it's not:

Asslam o alaikum to all of my brothers and sisters.. Well my question is that i have searched in google that when a person swallow his saliva while fasting is this breaks persons fast..? Everywhere it shows that swallowing saliva will not breaks persons fast but whenever i do sehri after sehri my mouth suddenly filled with water till iftari so is this ok to swallow that much saliva?.. Most people do not fell that much saliva in their mouth as i do..Mostly i spit out but after 2 or 3 mint again my mouth fill with water.. Iam not good in english but i hope you get whatever i said. My question is only that is this ok to swallow that much saliva? But it's very hard for me to not to swallow saliva while praying salah in the month of ramadan.. We don't use tissues while praying salah so i swallow my saliva because there is no any other way of spitting out while praying salah specially in the month of ramdhan

Is it permissible to continue fasting and praying after spotting a small drop of blood caused by contraceptive medicine, considering that this is not menstruation but rather irregular bleeding that occurs intermittently over several days and stops after the initial drop? I understand I can complete ghusl and pray, but I am confused about whether this bleeding can affect my fast.

Suhur for sunnah fast
Is it ok to missed suhur during sunnah fasting? I know that it is ok for the fardh fast during ramadhan, but I'm worried that there might be different ruling for sunnah fasting. I tried to search the web, but the results only shows those during ramadhan.

I was feeling extreme thirst while fasting today. I did not feel sick but I woke up only one hour before suhoor and I did not get to drink that much water. I had thoughts about breaking my fast to drink some or to drink a little and then continue fasting. I wasn't sure but after a while I was about to, and then later on I changed my mind. I asked people online about it and when someone told me it is not a valid reason to, I decided not to and to just wait until maghrib. I am now continuing with my fast but I'm concerned if thinking this already broke it. Is my fast still valid?

Does oral sex during the day in Ramadan invalidate the fast?
How about, if the wife who is not fasting gives oral sex to the husband who is fasting without ejaculation taking place? Is it permitted?

People keep saying that for fasts to be accepted you have to be toxin free for 40 days before Ramadan so does that include vaping? Does vaping count as intoxicating yourself as your not getting high or drunk, your in a state of knowing what you are doing. I also know that your not allowed to vape during fasts but i really just want to know the ruling outside of fasts. Please help me out by letting me know, jzk
