People are judged according to what is apparent from them
Assalaamu alaykum. I read the following on facebook: "The ruling of kufr (disbelief) and imaan (faith) is built upon the apparent, not the hidden." They further added, "There is no 'do not judge me' in Islam. 'Umar ibn al-Khattaab 
said that we judge by what is apparant. This is the way of the pious predecessors." Kindly.. More

The appropriate approach to draw analogy between Allaah and His creation
Assalaamu alaykum. Is it halal to use comparisons that include The Most High to prove a point?

Assalaamu alaykum. Fatwa 91189 mentioned that asking the Prophet, sallallaahu ʻalayhi wa sallam,to ask Allaah is not kufr (disbelief) but that it is not allowed.

Why children are not tested in this worldly life like adults
Assalaamu alaykum Brother. I was just wondering, if Allaah created us to test us, then why are children not tested? Why does God let them die young and does He not let them live to test them because it does not make any sense? Or is it possible that some humans did not accept the test, like the animals and angels? Is that a possibility, that some humans.. More

How can the disbelievers fail, when some of them try and do what they can and Allaah is so good and merciful? Some of them may have a problem like doubt, which is really hard for them to get over, how can He punish them for that? Please give me a satisfying answer.

Verbally abusing a Muslim for posting religious material on social media
I have a habit of posting Islamic posts on social media. One day, when a person was checking my profile in front of me, he saw one of these posts and remarked, "What is this (he used slang here)?
