Marrying girl who was secretly married and had abortion
I met a girl whom I want to marry and have children with. She is of good nature and is fit for me as I think that she can be a good in my life. However, her past bothers me. She used to like a boy in 2011, but the boy's grandmother did not like that girl as she was from a poor family. The girl left him, and another boy asked her to marry him. However,.. More

Saying to wife: I divorce you five times
Shaykh, I am in so much distress and pain. I was slightly mad and I texted my wife that I wanted to end the relationship - just to scare her - and that I would call and tell her the words. I was hoping that she would not answer, but she did, which made me mad. I was like, "Fine, I divorce you 5 times." By Allaah, I do not remember my intention, but.. More

Meaning of statement: Women are captives with men
Assalaamu alaykum, Shaikh. In a hadith, it is told that the wife is the captive/prisoner of the husband. Even ‘Umar, may Allaah be pleased with him, said, "Marriage is enslavement." These statements make me panic. And crying in panic is all that is left. This means that husband-wife relation is a owner-slave relation? Or is it an owner-servant relation?.. More

Refuting allegation that women are unintelligent and untalented
Is it unusual for women to be intelligent and talent? Is it totally impossible for women to be intelligent and talented? Are they completely and totally deficient in intelligence according to Islam?

Witnessing marriage contract by person suffering OCD
Dear Scholars, I was a witness of a marriage. The problem is that I had OCD-type (obsessive compulsive disorder) problems, which means that I was not 100% mentally fit.

Metaphor of divorce depends upon husband's intention
Assalaamu alaykum. I am very distressed right now and look forward towards your help. A few months ago, my husband and I got into an argument until, out of anger, he said, "Go to your mother's place." We did not pay attention to it at that time, but a few days ago, I came across a lecture by a scholar on Facebook who said that divorce occurs when such.. More

Assalaamu alaykum. A 19-year-old Melbourne girl is in love with a Sikh boy. Everyone forbade her this, but she does not want to hear anything. Now her parents talked to that boy, and he said, “That is OK.

Islam does not restrict women to being housewives
I would like a specific fatwa for this question, thank you. In fatwa 82079, you mentioned that ‘Aa’ishah, may Allaah be pleased with her,fought? I would like to ask, why was ‘Aa’ishah allowed to fight? And also, if women are supposed to be housewives, then why was Khadeejah, may Allaah be pleased with her, a businesswoman? And how did the Mothers.. More

This is a follow-up question to your response to my question, which was number 2637494. I decided to follow much of your advice, may Allaah reward you.

Everyday, I am scared of disobeying Allaah and turning.. More

Ruling on participating in model United Nations
What is the Islamic perspective regarding participating in a model United Nations program? Is it a competition that is haram? I have very little knowledge of what it is exactly and of what participants have to talk about and ignore if anything that is done there goes against Islam. I hope that you can give me an Islamic perspective.
