Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakaatuh,

May you receive this with many blessings and the khair from Allah, Ameen.

I am a sister who would like to seek more knowledge of my deen and may Allah purify my intentions and bless me in it, Ameen.

I live in the West and would like to go to where the People of Knowledge are, however, I am in heavy debt from school bills (i.e. tens of thousands of dollars).

Is is permissible for me to to leave my country to seek knowledge with the intentions of returning to pay off my debts?

I would appreciate your advice from the Qur'aan and Sunnah.

As Salaamu Alaikum, Does the woman that is divorced for the third time entitled to maintaince during her pregnancy? and in Surah Talaq 65:3-5. states that she is and, can a sheik over ride the Qurans ruling? stating that she gets maintaince.. please entail what maintaince is/ ie. food, clothing, shelter, even if the wife is a co wife with her own home? and is the marriage contract that was agreed upon void in the 3rd divorce while she is pregnant? or does he continue with her said amount until she delivers her child?

Asalamu alaikum

I would like clarity with regards to using the names of Allah preceded by "al", for other than Allah. This is because of some quotes I have read from the Quran and Ahadith where this seems to be the case, for example "rabbul-'arsh-iladheem "(Quran). Here Allah refers to His throne as "al-adheem". And Imam Malik said in al-muwatta "Luqmaan alhakeem ".

So what is the ruling regarding using Allah's name preceded by "al", to others besides Allah, considering these quotes?

If one owes money to an unknown source should that individual put that amount in charity or supplicate for them? They maybe Kaafirs.

Allaah purify usfrom all evils that are unbeneficial for our akhira, that which we know of that which we don't, for Allaah to do anything is easy!!!

Still,even it is said from the Director of the School ,where our Children being tought,that " hidding is not in our Policy' and tho many wittnissed hidding ,choking,breaking the joins(bones),swollen Areas on the Forhead,beating with ironsticks,and exposing their Aura (beneath their navels ) ,calling our little ones out of their Names and using Kufar Speach towards them,all of this and more shameless Acts of Harshness like the stones, who fall from the Mountains ,all under so called " Disciplinary " Actions ,with highpothetic ly speaking...this is what our Sahaba used to do...? And we know they was the best of the Generation before us and they are there ,where Rivers flow Radiyallahuanhum and may Allahazawajal make us at least like their fingertips...Amiiin. Ya Shakh,with Allahs permission heal our Hearts with the Speech of our Everliving Rabbilalemin.....Assalaamualaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakaatuhu...

Wass saalamu alykum

Assalamu 'alaykoum wa Rahmatullah, noble Shaykh.

My parents conceived me outside of wedlock, but got married before I was born, therefore I was born in wedlock.

Both of them are non-Muslims.

Am I to be attributed to my father or to my mother?

Jazaak Allahu khayraan.

Assalamu alaykoum wa Rahmatullah.

Assalamu 'alaykoum wa Rahmatullah,

Noble Shaykh, may Allah increase you in status:

If a person was conceived outside of marriage, but by the time they are born, the parents have become married, so that when the person is born, the mother and father are wed, what is his status concerning lineage. Is he attributed to his father or his mother.

Both of the parents are non-Muslim and continue to be so, may Allah open their hearts to Islaam.

Baraak Allahu feek, jazaak Allahu khayran.

Assalaamu 'alaykoum

As Salaamu Alaikumwa Rahmatullahiwa Barakaatuh,

Ya Shayk, I need advice concerning my children. I do not permit television and movies or the like in my home, but when my ex-husband who claims that he is Salafi takes the children for a visit he takes them to movie house to see the kufaar movies, he allows them to see dvd movies in his home, I tell my daughters who are in puberty to cover their faces and he tells them they do not have too. My husband and I are met with so much resitance we do not know what to do, it is very hard, and now the children hate my home, because they long for the home of their father, The father does not have his children living with him due to his wives not wanting to take the responsibility of helping him, So they live with me and my husband, but we are met with so much resisstance to get them to follow what is right because when we tell them something is haram like sitting and viewing these movies their father takes them, or if I tell them to cover so as not to make a display of themselves their father allows them to wear the bright colors, and no niqaab, so they are confused and we hurt for them, insha Allah could you advise us,

May Allah subhanawa ta'ala bless you with the good of this world and the next,

Barakallahufeekum

Assalaamualaykum,Hayakumurllah;Iwould like to ask a Question Biiznillah,regarding ,Abusing our little Children in Schools:

These Teachers ,who has taken the responsability,to teach our little Muslim Brothers and Sisters,may Allah protect them all,beat and misstreat them mentaly and phisically ,horrorable, ,that our children are in a Trauma and ,so frightened to attened their lessons.The little ones being called out their Names with Kufarlanguage,imitating their speach and as ,how they call it under "Disciplinary Actions ,their Awrah being exposed...And the ones who are shamless,doing all these actions ,claimb this is the way of the Sahabas...And we know fully well where they are blessed with,Radyallahuanhum wa Raduan.

Is this how it is being done? Jazakumallahukhayran.

My sister in law lives about 200 miles from the city I live in. Is it permissable for her to come visit me with out a mahram? If not may her brother (my husband) meet her half way and drive infront of her the rest of the way? jazakallahukhairan.

Allah(swt) says in the qur'aan "wa rabbul arsh il adheem"(Lord of the great throne(al adheem)). How can we understand this when we know that it's not permissable to attach a name of Allah preceded by "al" (eg al adheem) to anything besided Allah(swt)?
Also Imam Malik said "Luqmaan al hakeem" in his muwatta. Please explain.

Bismillah, Assalamu Alaikum,I made a mistake. The distance is actually about 101 miles. Please make the correction as it would have an effect on the answer of the question. Thank you.

Asalmalaikum warahmatulahi wabarakatuh,

My question is regarding maintaining the ties of kinship.

I cannot visit the sick, accept invitations to weddings and dinners of my relatives because they do not observe Islamic rules in socializing and dress. The women do not observe Purdah and the gatherings involve mixing of non-mehram men and women.

How do I maintain ties with my relatives as they are upset with my behaviour.

May Allah bless you with the best in this dunya and the Akhirat. Ameen

AsSalaam Alaikum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatu

BarakAllaahu Feek Shaykhuna,

The Soofee’s have been spreading a shubhah about tabarruk with the graves to the new Muslims here by bringing to them narrations from the books of the Salaf (such as Siyaar Alaam). Upon my research of the narrations I found many of them Dha’eef and Mawdoo’. However my question is, “Is tabarruk with the graves shirk? Bid’ah Mukaffarah? Or Bid’ah Ghayr Mukaffarah?” JazaakAllaahu Khairun Shaykhuna

Assalaamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullaahi wa Barakaatuh:

May Allaah preserve you Ya Sheikh;

It has been known to me that minor shirk does not remove one from the fold of Islaam. Is this (ijmaa') a consensus with the 'Ulamaa? I ask this because I read in Shaykh 'Uthaymeen's (Rahimahu-Allah) Sharh on Thalaathah Usool (3 Principles): It says; "Allah does not forgive shirk, but He forgives what is less than that." [An-Nisaa' 4:116] then, 'Uthaymeen said, "some of the scholars have said that this threat covers all shirk, even lesser (minor) shirk."

Also, if there is no difficulty, could you mention some of the scholars who have said this?

Please clarify O'Noble Shaykh & May Allaah Preserve you!
