This is a question which requires some fiqh knowledge. I just want to discuss the fiqh of it, so would prefer, if personal biases are set aside in answering the question. My question is, would it be a correct understanding, Islamically, that when the ruling of a matter is “permissible” in the shariah rather than “Mustahhab” or “Sunnah” one can weigh the pros or cons of that matter and make own personal decision on whether to practice it or not? I ask this specifically in the context of polygamy. If one can think to potential harms polygamy might cause - such as pain to the wife/woman and possibly statistics that point to harms would it be correct to advice against polygamy weighing its pros and cons? For eg drinking energy drinks is permissible but it’s not good for you - so you may discourage it. Just like that would it be islamically fine to discourage polygamy? Would it be different in the case of polygamy because polygamy is explicitly mentioned in the Qur’an? What is in my mind as I think about this issue is verse 1 of Surah tahrim. By the way, for the benefit of this discussion, I am referring to the opinion of those scholars who consider polygamy only permissible and not Sunnah. I understand there are other opinions but that is not what this discussion is about. Like I said I am interested in the fiqh so I would appreciate someone wijt some knowledge of fiqh and for personal biases to be set aside.

is buying prime (one time buy) on csgo allowed? with it you can get free cases when you level without specifically paying for it. but you pay once on the start to get prime. you can sell the cases or the skins that drop from them. you do not pay for each case. >You can potentially get free cases in CS2 through weekly care package drops, in-game events, and by participating in community giveaways or using third-party services that offer daily free case openings. Additionally, some sites offer free cases in exchange for completing tasks or watching ads. means the is no risk of losing money. also i dont intend to sell the cases as it then will undoubtedly considered gambling for the person who buys them. i want to open the cases and sell the contents for a fair price the thing is that the you dont know what skin you will get is this considered gambling

I have come across istibra being discussed for literal infants or “girls in cradles”. Isnt this abnormal or considered a path to harm or harm? I know the quran mentions iddah for ones who have not menstruated but i assumed its still talking about someone with physical capacity or at least close to puberty. I know that physical capacity is what permits intercourse according to islamic law but what about acts short of intercourse isnt capacity still important. I have seen another passage of istibra being discussed again for girls 6-7,there is no awrah for children until 7 years because they are not even perceived that way, were scholars permitting this at any age even infancy? Was phycological harm not considered for concubines? 2. The Case of Young Girls Regarding a young girl who is too young for intercourse: Is istibra mandatory for her? There are two scholarly views (wajhan): The First View (Mandatory): It is obligatory. This is the apparent meaning of the Imam’s (Ahmad bin Hanbal) words in most narrations. He stated that she must undergo istibra even if she is "in the cradle," and physical contact with her is forbidden just as it is with an adult woman. Reasoning: Just as 'iddah (the waiting period after divorce/death) is mandatory for a child, istibra follows the same logic. https://www.islamweb.net/ar/library/content/96/2479/%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%85%D9%88%D8%B6%D8%B9-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A3%D9%88%D9%84-%D8%A5%D8%B0%D8%A7-%D9%85%D9%84%D9%83-%D8%A3%D9%85%D8%A9-%D9%84%D8%A7-%D9%8A%D8%AD%D9%84-%D9%84%D9%87-%D9%88%D8%B7%D8%A6%D9%87%D8%A7?utm_source=chatgpt.com

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. Does one become a kafir if they keep watching it despite hating the actions and words of kufr that have or taking place? And does the same ruling apply to soap operas that have mocked Islam unintentionally or deliberately

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 ?

In this question asking if a Muslim living in a democracy should turn it into an Islamic state, most of the answers seem to agree that the answer is yes, they should. But my question is, why is this preferable to simply emigrating to an already established Islamic state? Doesn't this allow the Muslim to live in an Islamic state as they desire, without having to impose it onto others?

Assalam alaikum I want to know whether is it alright to read manga or anime with cartoon images in it? Recently I read on a islamqa website that watching a cartoon image is permissiible,see this; Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) was asked: What is the ruling on cartoons that appear on TV? He replied: With regard to the cartoons which you say appear on TV, if they are in the form of humans, then the ruling on watching them depends on whether they come under the same ruling as realistic human images or not? It is most likely that they do not come under that ruling. If they are not in the form of humans, then there is nothing wrong with watching them, so long as they are not accompanied by anything haraam such as music and so on, and they do not distract from obligatory duties. End quote. Majmoo’ al-Fataawa 2/question no. 333 Also I have read that the rule of a awrah of a woman doesn't apply to cartoon since it is not real and hence we can watch them, see this; Some scholars favored the view that such images do not take the ruling of images of real persons, so they permitted looking at them. Shaykh Ibn 'Uthaymeen said: “With regard to cartoon images that you mentioned are shown on television, if they are in the shape of a human, then the ruling of looking at them has to be looked at. Are they like a real image or not? The closest opinion to the truth is that they do not look like them (real images). And if they do not have a human shape, then there is nothing wrong with looking at them as long as they are not accompanied by an evil, such as music or the like, and provided that they do not distract one from performing an obligatory act of worship.” Now my question if it is allowed to watch a woman in a cartoon, does that mean we can also see a woman in a cartoon or a 2d image in inappropriate clothing(like Japanese school uniform or skirt long and small) of course provided that no private part are showing. So plz tell me how much awrah of a woman should be exposed and what can we see?

As we know Salah is a daily act for us muslims. But why is it that it is prayed differently though it was an extremely common daily act for the Prophetﷺ. For example: i) Why is there a difference of opinion of wether we should raise our hands (Takbeer) for ruku3 , coming up from ruku3 etc? ii) Again why is binding your hands or not getting up from ruku3 a matter of dispute ? iii)The dispute of wether we should raise and point with out finger while sitting the whole way through, only during the tashahud or only during the shahadah. These were extremely common practices but why are there differences in opinions about them. Please provide your proof using Ahadeeth or trustable sources aswell. Thank you.

I understand that according to classical fiqh, a master may sell a concubine after intercourse if she does not become pregnant and the waiting period (iddah) is observed. However, my question is different from merely asking about the permissibility of a single sale. What I am asking about is the following scenario: If a man intentionally structures repeated sales of the same woman — for example, selling her to another man for intercourse and then having her returned to him under a pretext (such as “discontent”), and repeating this process — such that the same original man repeatedly benefits from her sexual use, would this still be considered permissible? Does Islamic law consider the intent and overall structure in such a case? Would using valid sales contracts in this way be considered sinful if the purpose is to simulate prostitution through a legal loophole? Or returning based on “discontent” if that was untrue and done just to get around the ruling? “They were in effect prostituted; not by being owned by a single man who sold their sexual favors, but by being sold from client to client, and thus frequently changing owners. This solved the ban of prostitution, since it was allowed for a man to have sex with his slave. Since the principle of concubinage in Islam in Islamic Law allowed a man to have intercourse with his female slave, prostitution was also practiced by a pimp selling his female slave on the slave market to a client, who was allowed to have intercourse with her as her new owner; and who returned his ownership of her to her pimp on the pretext of discontent after intercourse, which was a legal and accepted method for prostitution in the Islamic world.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_prostitution Do not force your ˹slave˺ girls into prostitution for your own worldly gains while they wish to remain chaste. And if someone coerces them, then after such a coercion Allah is certainly All-Forgiving, Most Merciful ˹to them https://quran.com/an-nur/33

So I heard fatwas from sheikhs and scholars that generally wearing wig is haram but if a women has defect, like hair loss then she can wear it to fix it. For example even in this islamwqa article > With regard to using a wig in a case such as that which you have described, where the woman’s hair has fallen out in a case in which there is no hope of it growing back, we say that in such cases there is nothing wrong with wearing a wig, because in fact it is not done to enhance beauty; rather it is done to remove a defect. Sheikh ibn Uthaymin However I found a Hadith that shows that even in the case when the hair falls out cause of disease. It is still prohibited > حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، > أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ الْمُنْذِرِ، تَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ > أَسْمَاءَ، قَالَتْ سَأَلَتِ امْرَأَةٌ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم > فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ ابْنَتِي أَصَابَتْهَا الْحَصْبَةُ، > فَامَّرَقَ شَعَرُهَا، وَإِنِّي زَوَّجْتُهَا أَفَأَصِلُ فِيهِ فَقَالَ > ‏"‏ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ الْوَاصِلَةَ وَالْمَوْصُولَةَ ‏"‏‏.‏ Narrated > Asma': A woman asked the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, "0 Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) > ! My daughter got measles and her hair fell out. Now that I got her > married, may I let her use false hair?" He said (to her), "Allah has > cursed the lady who lengthens hair artificially and the one who gets > her hair lengthened artificially." Sahih Sahih al-Bukhari, 5941 Then which is the right understanding? And how do you reconcile with the Hadith?

What should we do if we need help of beings other than Allah in necessary situations?

So, there's a debate whether cracking is allowed or not since some people argue that it isn't the same as stealing since there's no physical stuff involved. And there's another argument where if the dev is a jerk (such as selling expensive but bad stuff, not granting you to be able to play the game forever, etc) it's ok to crack. So does this affect the law that cracking is steal some form of stealing? Please answer with some of supporting law such as hadith, so i can be more sure

Do minor Sins become major if we do all time same Sins? I heard as well there is difference of oppinion in this matter too I mean if there are no minor sins,like all Sins are major Sins and no minor and repeating minor sins turns into a major sin, minor sins lead to major sins, and not considering minor sins a big deal is a major sin, then it sure sounds like every single Muslim will be going to Hell besides these great holy men.

I am a MD radiologist. To give some context I live in a non Muslim majority country. I work in a hospital 6 days a week. In our department there are 5 radiologist including me. Only 1 of them is female and rest all are male. And I am the only muslim there. I chose radiology because I had a good rank and it is also the top sought profession with a small closing rank. Now our typical day involves CT scan, MRI, USG not only of pregnancy but also to evaluate organs like the liver, gallbladder, kidneys, and pancreas, to examine muscles, tendons, and joints, Vascular ultrasound,Thyroid ultrasound, Pediatric ultrasound, Cardiac ultrasound (echocardiogram), Prostate ultrasound, Other Ultrasound-guided procedures. Now we do have a good patient load hence everyone is busy. For female reproductive part disease related and breast related issues the female radio handles it almost 99% of time and also there is patient preference in this case. Rest work is done by division of labour. Now as far as how work is concerned there is a male and a female attendent for respective genders regardless of the doctor's gender they do all covering, uncovering positioning, etc. We keep a device on belly(for ultrasonography) or the parts(for other disorders, not pelvis and breast for me) and it captures the image(so no direct physical contact), I study and report. A or two family member is always present and the attended is also there for full time. I always keep my gaze lowered, don't look anything more or less than what area is required, nor go in excess talking with women. Sometimes there is emergency for female patients and I by duty have to attend it(we have divided work load). Am I sinful for operating on female patients, like ultrasonography or say artery blockage in hand, broken bone or blockage in back?

Peace be upon you. I dealt with a large company, and they were unfair in some of their dealings. They took more money than the contract stipulated, and I paid them money for services, but they didn't do it, which created for me many problems with my business. They didn't abide by all the terms of the contract. Since they are a large company with lawyers, I couldn't do anything but terminate the contract. They took about $7,000 from me in total. However, when they paied the final invoice, they made a mistake and overcharged me by $10,000. Should I inform them of the mistake? Or should I just ignore it since they didn't treat me honestly? The amout that they give my error is more that what i owe them, but if i signal that to them i will be forced to give back all the 10k May God bless you.

There is a similar question on this. It is a commonly known fact that Muhammad SAWS and many caliphs punished apostasy with death. However, my question is **whether it is *commanded* to punish someone with death for leaving Islam**. There are many Sunnahs which are not necessarily followed, like having a beard, or cleaning teeth with siwak. The Quran has direct commandments on how to punish some crimes, like theft and adultery. But is the death penalty for apostasy merely 'good practice' or is it a commandment?
