  • Expiating for breaking oath several times regarding only one thing

    Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaah. I used to think one was to offer an expiation for every single broken oath made to Allaah, The Exalted, irrespective of whether they have to do with the same action or not, but according to fatwa no 311782 and after some recent reading and research, it seems to me that one only has to offer one expiation if the multiple..

  • Intention in supplicating

    Assalaamu alaykum. Please answer me directly; I would be grateful to you! Does the intention depend on supplication? Do we get the reward by saying 'In Shaa Allaah' (if Allaah wills)while not having any intention to do it, or supplicating without having the intention to do so? Can these things be accepted by Allaah without holding an intention, like.. More

  • Muslims commanded to conceal their sins

    If a person commits a sin and attempts to hide his sins lest Allaah expose them, is he a Kafir given that he does so trying to stop Allaah from doing some thing i.e he believes that he can do so?

  • Severing ties of kinship does not affect acceptance of deeds

    Assalaamu alaykum. If a person cut the family ties for years and then repents and gives them cards as an effort to keep the ties of kinship and they live in my home. All those years, like two years; my deeds are not accepted? Does that mean that all my deeds were for nothing? .. More

  • Ruling on taking the money of a disbeliever or a Faasiq

    When I was young, I stole a sum of money from a person who used to drink alcohol and commit all kinds of sins.

    Previously, I asked a question, but you responded by forwarding to question no: 90921, where you kindly mentioned that we can pray for a disbeliever who is not against the Muslims, for worldly benefits, but not for mercy, forgiveness, and so on. However, my question is: there are scholarly differences of opinionwith regards to saying 'Salam' (peace).. More

  • Dutifulness towards apostate parent

    Assalaamu alaykum. If a muslim mother converted to another faith and she is not a muslim anymore and announces that to people, does she still have the right of obedience on her children?

    In the name of Allah. Assalamu Alaykum. I have been a Muslim for almost 19 years, praise be to Allah. Ever since, my non-Muslim father does not want to have any contact with me.
