Assalaamu alaykum. My husband and I had a fight, and as soon as the fight was over, I said, "If you do such thing again, it is over;" to which my husband said, "Same here, if you do such thing, then..." I do not remember what his words were after that. He does not remember it either. I asked him twice, and he said that there was no intention for divorce.. More
I was told that in order for a Christian girl to be with a Muslim man, we needed to do a ritual in islam. I never thought that it was a wedding in Islam. The wedding had no consent from my guardian. There were no witnesses from my side, and he has not given me a dowry. When I saw the marriage certificate, I saw that he wrote their that he gave me a.. More
Assalaamu alaykum. I am from Bangladesh. In my county, most of the people cannot afford an air conditioning system at home. So we need to keep the windows open, especially in the summer. Now, a woman does not wear the hijab in her home, but as the window is open, men from other houses can see her without her hijab. My question is, will she be sinful.. More

Assalaamu alaykum. We know that men have the right to marry a second wife even if the first wife does not agree. She also does not have the right to object to it ask adivorce for it as long as the man is just. On the other hand, women are not obliged to live with or serve their in-laws. Now, can a man agree with a woman either before or after marriage.. More
I was wondering; regarding the face veil, I read two reports from Ibn ‘Abbaas:
Imam Ibn Katheer wrote in the preface of his Tafseer, "If we are unable to find a suitable Tafseer (exegesis) in the Quran or in the Sunnah, we go to the opinions of the Companions, for it is certain that they knew the Quran better than anyone else due to their knowledge.. More
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu. Dear Shaykh, I pray you are in the best of health. All praise is for Allah. Is it permissible to send a young child (aged 2-3 years) to an Islamic nursery in the UK if the parents are told that the staff do nursery rhymes there? Does the content of the rhyme matter, as well as whether they are sung.. More
Assalaamu alaykum. I do not know whether you have received my email, but if you did, then I would like to apologise for this inconvenience. I asked if it was an act of Shirk (associating partners with Allah) to talk to people with pagan names, and from what I undersood from the answer, it is not, but what if a Muslim was to talk to a person with a name..

Assalaamu alaykum. Sorry, I am disturbing you again. I know that you have answered my question previously,but some points are not clear to me, which is why I am repeating my problem. I love a boy. He is not really a practicing Muslim, and he is in a relationship with another girl. I also do not have any way to send him a marriage proposal. I do not.. More
Assalaamu alaykum. I have recently avoided getting involved with an extremely beautiful woman because her faith was not at the level I wanted it to be (she was not wearing the hijab). I enjoined good on her and she got very angry at me, but she is not ignoring me (I have not tried to talk to her since). I would say that my heart is hurt by this, I was.. More
Assalaamu alaykum! The man I intended to marry once jokingly said, "Are we not celebrating Christmas together? If so, I will do so by myself." He repeated that it was only a joke. What is the ruling on saying something like that? He most likely said it out of ignorance. It makes me confused as to whether I should accept the proposal of someone like.. More
Assalaamu alaykum.
1. If the bride's father is alive but does not wish to attend the wedding, can her brother be her Wali (legal guardian)?
2. Do Ijaab and Qabool (offer and acceptance) have to be said in the past tense e.g. 'I have accepted'? If they are not said in the past tense, is the marriage nonetheless valid?
May Allah reward you.

Salam. I read in some fatwas that a disobedient wife loses her marital rights and that her husband will not be sinful if he withholds her maintenance and accomodation. Withholding maintenance is an easy matter, relatively speaking, but how is one to withhold a disobedient wife's accomodation? Should the husband send her to her father's home? Or can.. More
