  • Fell in love innocently

    I got a divorce from a very vindictive husband in 1985. It has been over 17 years now. I was hurt so badly and I was so sad and of course I loved my ex-husband so much that I never liked anyone during this period. I went for Hajj in 2002 and one of our relatives who is married and helps Hajjis helped me couple of times when I was desperate in need.. More

    Allaah has commanded the man to maintain his family. The scholars say be patient with our mates. When does patient turn into stupidity.

Please help me to understand, it would seems that the.. More

  • Flirtatious relationship with non-Muslim

    I fear that I have committed a sin. I allowed myself to be kissed by a guy I know. I don't hate this person, he is not a Muslim, but something in me trusts him. I know this is completely wrong, and I am trying my best to not let myself do this again, and separate myself from him. I feel so much guilt, I can't even bear it, I can't tell this.. More

    For almost fifteen years my husband and me go back and forth. He says I divorce you or I say it to him.

He wants me to stay. I confused because.. More

  • Wants to attract a lady to marry

    This is a very strange question indeed. In order for a person to woo a lady, should he resort to behaving according to what is written on Internet sites by non-Muslims?

  • Her husband watches pornography on the Internet

    My concern is rather upsetting. I have a wonderful husband who does everything to please me and he is dedicated to Islam most of the time.

  • His family wants him to end his relationship with a girl

    Still in confusion about where to start with what all I can say. If anything in this finds un-Islamic I sincerely ask pardon from you brothers and Allah and requesting you to pin point and clear my errors. May Allah include us in the people of paradise?

    I have a dilemma. About 1 and half years ago, I proposed to a sister for marriage and we both agreed in the presence of her brother (who was the Waali). But I never made my intentions known to her father. She is currently at university and has 2 and a half years left to her course. She is of a different caste to me, but she says when she.. More

  • Proving and punishing fornication

    For my previous query on producing witnesses for proving a case of fornication, you wrote that for convicting a case, the witnesses should have seen the very act. I have still further queries. If a woman becomes pregnant before marriage, she would definitely get the punishment for fornication but a man can easily escape if there were not four witnesses.. More
