    Assalaamu alaykum. I live abroad. In the country in which I live, a Muslim preacher visits from my own country. I used to go to his lectures with my husband.

  • Taking advantage of asylum benefits

    Assalaamu alaykum. I asked the question of fatwa No. 342220 before, and I would like to get some more details.

In this country, the asylum rulings are such that if the husband receives asylum, then.. More

  • Worshipping Allah to have prayers answered

    My problem is that I feel that every act of worship that I perform is done for the sake of having my prayer answered.

    Assalaamu alaykum. Is it an innovation to say the Talbiyah as Thikr (expressions of remembrance of Allaah) and rememberance of Allaah on any average day? Can we say it like we say Alhumdulillaah (praise be to Allaah) and Subhaan Allaah (glory to Allaah)? Thank you. .. More

    Assalaamu alaykum. Is it permissible for someone to just limit themselves to the obligatory duties of Islam to dedicate most of their time to a wordly, permissible field that they think they will do exceptionally well in?

  • Fear of showing off in reciting Quran

    Asaalaamu alaykum, Shaykh. I am on the path of memorising the Quran. Since I started this path, I have been having doubts whether I memorise Quran to impress others with the way that I recite (Tilaawah). I am very afraid of that, so I sometimes change my Tilaawah to another one that does not cause me such thoughts, but I do not like it that much. I.. More

  • Fearing insincerity of intention in doing good deeds

    Asslaamu alaykum, Shaykh. I have read almost all the fatwas regarding the intention, but I still have the same concern.

These thoughs are bothering me, and I feel as if they are real. What.. More
