  • Being patient when afflicted with passive-aggressive behaviours

    Salaam, I live in Canada and one of the habits of the non-Muslim white Canadians is to have a way of behaving that is known as "passive-aggressive".

  • Muslims may respond equally to abuse without excessive force

    Asalaamulaykum. My question is regarding the rights of an individual when someone (verbally) abuses or insults them.

  • One should not say decisively about an afflicted person that Allaah loves him

    Assalaamalaikum, Sometimes we hear people saying to one affected with trials Saying allaah is with you and he loves you. Doesn't this fall under things of unknown. Since we don't know whether allaah loves or hates him And we don't know whether its a trail or punishment. So is it correct to say that allaah loves you that is why he is testing you?? Since.. More

    Sallam alaykom, I was far from Islam for a long time, but hamdolilah about 4 years ago I returned strongly and have been increasing my faith ever since.

  • The calamities that befall a person expiate from his /her sins

    As salamu aleikum, I am often wronged by people because people's Islamic values aren't that important to them these days.
