Ahsalamualaikum
My husband has five children with my co-wife Masha Allah . I have three children that are from a previous marriage. We live as though all the children belong to all of us in matters of provision education and discipline. Sometimes her younger one calls me his second or step mother is this term incorrect to use as it is very popular here in the west. And I read the Ayyat that says for us to call our children by their fathers names and if you don't know their fathers names call them your brother in Islam or your freed slaves. Is my husband my childrens step father or are they his freed slaves.Please note that he is the sole provider of All parties mentioned MashaAllah. JzkmAllahuKhayr

Assalaamu 'Alaikum Wa Rahmatullaahi Wa Barakaatuh

My mother isn't very knowledgeable in the religion, either in its usool or its furoo'. Also, she isn't mentally stable. Can I ask a trustworthy non-mahram woman to find me a suitable spouse, or to look into the condition of a woman I might already be interested in? All the women to whom I'm closely-related live in another country.

May Allah (Ta'ala) show you His Face in jannah.

If one forgets to wash their mouth during wudhu before completing wudhu, is it permissible to go back and wash the mouth, and restart wudhu from that point or do they have to wash the whole face over again (as mouth is part of face)?

Assalamualaikum. I am happy that you are back with us Alhamdulillah.
I have a question. when I go out and if there is no seperate place for wudhu for women. Can I wipe over the khimar as it will not be possible to remove it?

as-salaamuAlaikum warhaamtullahi wabarakatuh
sheikh hafidhakaAllah what is the understanding on the wiping over socks, is there a limit over the thickness . jazaakumALlah hu khairan
May Allah preserve you and grant you jannatul firdous al ala with out any hisaab ameen

Assalamualaikum

Noble Shaikh my question is :

Is it allowed to wipe over socks or shoes or it is only over khuffs?

Jazakumullahu khairan. May Allah make us benefit through these lectures. Ameen.

assalaamu 'alaikum wa rahmatullaah,

If wudu is performed after using the bathroom with the intention of maintaining a state of purity and not specifically for performing salaah, and then the time for salaah comes in - must a new wudu be performed?
Similarly if the wudu was with the intention of that done before going to sleep, but one does not sleep and wants to pray nafl salaah - must a new wudu be done.

Baarak Allaahu feek.
