Drinking with left hand to keep glass clean for others
Respected Brother. Today, I came to know a hadith that says, "Drink with right hand." Obviously, I always drink with the right hand, except in certain cases, especially when we have rice and curry. When we have our meal with the right hand, our hand gets covered with curry. If we hold the glass with our right hand at that time, then the glass looks.. More

Leaving a religious lesson without excuse
After the Isha prayer everyday, in a mosque of our community, some hadiths are read from different books (for a durarion of about 25 to 30 minutes) by a person, and we are few people who listen to it.

Lying about abusing someone else's borrowed belongings
Assalaamu alayku. While trying to move my laptop, I dropped it and my father heard the noise. However, I told him that it was something else (the charger); also, when one of my sibling opened the door to check what was that noise, I tried to conceal it from her.

Questions about Gheebah
Assalaamu alaykum, my question is with regards gheebah(backbiting):
A. If I narrate a story for sympathy or with sorrow, but not to belittle, is this considered gheebah ifit may shed bad light on someone?
B. Alternatively, if I narrate the same story, but without mentioning names, is this gheebah? Ideally, we would not need to ask, but due to.. More

Raising the voice when supplicating is disliked
Assalaamu alaykum. I sometimes speak in a very angry voice. I sometimes like to do so as it clears my mind. When I supplicate, I do so as well sometimes. I am not angry with Allaah; sometimes I am just angry about some stuff, if you speak with an angry voice to Allaah but are not angry with Allaah or are not menacing to show disrespect. Is that kufr..

We have.. More

Taking multiple vows with the intention to repeat the expiation
Assalaamu alaykum. I took three vows for a single matter. My intention at the time of taking the vows was that they were three vows so that if I broke them I would have to offer the expiation three times. Do I have to offer three expiations or just one?

I have been married for 30 years now and have two sons. We live abroad and my two brothers also live in the same country as us.
