Assalaamu alaykum. My university requires me to perform one year of practical training in any organization. I started it in a company.

Asking Allah to remove fever without cursing it
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu, Shaykh. It is true, one must not curse fever, as that is forbidden. I want to know whether it would also be wrong for me to say, “Oh Allaah, I seek refuge with You from this fever or fever in general.” And what if I were to say, “Oh Allaah, take this fever away from me; heal me completely”?..

Is there a consensus among the scholars that it is haram for a man to look at a non-Mahram (permanently unmarriageable) woman who wears the full hijab (including niqab), even if the look is not accompanied by desire? Or do scholars have different views regarding this issue? [Please do not refer me to questions that have already been asked on this website.]

Angels descend upon reciter of Quran
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu, Shaykh. It is true that angels look for gatherings where Allaah, The Exalted, is mentioned (and all that is mentioned in the hadiths that speak about this subject takes place).

Suppressing anger to please person instead of Allah
Assalaamu alaykum. We know that anger is bad and that one who avoids being angry for Allaah's sake will be rewarded.

I know that the financial responsibility is for the brothers and the father, but is it the daughters' duty to do housework for her dad when he is oldin Islam?

Ending contact with non-Mahram woman not dispraised desertion of Muslim
Assalaamu alaykum. I have a question about these two hadiths:
“The Muslim is not allowed to abandon a Muslim brother more than three days. If three days pass and he meets him, then he should greet him. If he (the other believer) returns his greeting, then they share the reward; but if he does not return it, then he (alone) will incur the sin.”

Saying ‘Rest in peace’ to deceased Muslim
Assalaamu alaykum, dear Scholars. I have a question regarding two conflicting statements. It is reported that ʿAbdullah ibn Masʿood, may Allaah be pleased with him, said,“There is no comfort or rest for the believer until he meets Allaah.” Wakeeʿ ibn Al-Jarraah, Al-Zuhd #86. It is reported that Masrooq, may Allaah have mercy with.. More

I used to read it on my fingers, but then I read a fatwa saying that it is from the Sunnah.. More

Assalaamu alaykum. I am in a strange situation. I live alone with my older sister (at university), and our granddad will come and stay with us for a bit.

He says that I have to listen to my sister even if what I think she is saying is wrong, and so he has appointed.. More
