  • Finding wetness in trousers upon waking up

    Assalaamu alaykum. A few days ago, I found some wetness in my trouser as I woke up. I saw it on the backside of my trousers and did not check the rest of them. Since it was at the back, I neglected it. However, I fear that it could have been urine, as incontinence may occur sometimeswhile one is sleeping. I am very worried. Please help. .. More

  • Waswaas about harassment incident of past

    Once, when I was young, (I think) that I was reading in the Quran class while my mother was by herself at home, so she somehow got me to go back home (by phone call, I think). Basically, before I came home, my next-door neighbor (a man) approached my mother, I think he said things like, 'I like you,' to my mother. I do not know if he tried to physicallytouch.. More

  • Waswaas about washing lips in ablution

    Assalaamu alaykum. I recentlyfound out that you must not press your lips hard during ablution since if your lips are left dry your ablution is invalid. I think that I have been doing that, but I did not know this fact. Do I have to repeat my prayers? Also please suggest some solution because I suffer from severe Waswaas (obsessive whispers)during ablution.. More

  • Waswasah regarding impurity during Istinjaa'

    Assalaamu alaykum. I suffer from Waswasah (obsessive doubts), and it is making my life miserable. I read a fatwa of yours that says that water is pure unless its color, smell, or taste has changed. What if a drop of water goes over an invisible impurity and then falls on your clothes or the floor. Will this drop be pure if its color, smell, or taste.. More

  • Waswaas about parents' faith

    Recently, I have become a committed Muslim who prays five times a day and tries hard to avoid sins. I live in the West, and my question relates to my parents. My parents also pray five times a day, but my dad suffers from insomnia and due to his medication sometimes misses the Fajr prayer. I want to know if they committed Kufr (disbelief) verbally (I..

  • Eating in same plate with person who has eaten impurity

    If someone eats meat that was not properly slaughtered or food that was cooked on a grill on which bacon is also cooked, as is the case in most American restaurants, and that person then eats with a group of people one or two hours later, does the impurity transfer from their mouth to the food given that they put the food in their mouth and we all eat..

  • Case of waswaas (obsessive whisperings)

    Assalaamu alaykum. I am a junior doctor and a trainee. I suffer a lot from thoughts of dishonesty and wrongdoing. The last time when I was on duty, a patient came to the emergency room. I tried taking his blood pressure, but my apparatus stopped working. My colleague just wrote the pressure by herself. At the time, I was relaxed. Later on however, I.. More

  • Fear of difficulty to use toilets in Hajj

    Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu. I hear that restrooms at Hajj sites are hard to use, especially at Muzdalifah. I have heard this from male speakers. I wonder how a woman may use them then. It is very difficult. I mean, if I think about myself, starting from shoes (they are not open sandals like men), socks, trouser, shirt, abaya,.. More

  • Obsessive whisperings about committing disbelief

    My colleagues where discussing whether or not Allaah has a soul, and I thought of telling them that He does. However, I stopped myself, thinking that that would be talking about Allaah without knowledge and that He most probably does not have a soul as it is more likely than not that a soul is a created thing. Then I heard a voice inside me say, "Go.. More

  • Case of Waswaas

    I was muttering to myself about what I would say in an argument with someone over an Islamic ruling that I believed to be correct. While I was talking to myself, I put in a hadith which I thought was false, but there was a decent chance that the hadith was authentic, so I should not say anything without being certain. I did not remember since I had.. More

  • Waswaas about mispronouncing word in Quran

    Assalaamu alaykum! My husband was talking to me while I was reciting the Quran. He recited, "Wa ma alayna illal balaagh." I am not sure what he said next, but he said something like balaagh and blog sound similar, I am not sure whether he recited the verse again replacing blog for balaagh. I do not remember the whole conversation too well to say with.. More

  • Doubts about committing act of Kufr

    This is about a person who said that she does not believe in Allaah. When asked whether she was a Muslim or a disbeliever, I said that I did not know. Even though I knew that the issue of ignorance or being forced to say words of disbelief do not apply to her, I said this. I had the feeling that I was missing something and was not considering something.. More

  • Whispers about traces of menstrual blood on body or clothes

    Assalaamu alaykum. My question is regarding menstrual blood. I had a sister approach me who was extremely conflicted by this situation. The sister states that during her period, the menstrual blood dried up and turned it into little black particles. These particles look exactly like black pepper. She said that she was wearing a pad but that due to the.. More

  • Waswasah regarding impurity of desk surface

    I am a convert, and I have an old desk in my roomat which I used to eat when I was a kafir (disbeliever). I used to eat haram meat, and I am 100% sure that it must have fallen on the desk many times and was only wiped with a wet cloth (I do not know how many times this happened) and was not wiped with a dry one afterwards. Its surface is not smooth,.. More

  • Fears that she made fun of Islam

    Assalaamu alaykum. I would like to ask whether joking in the following way equals making fun of islam. If I were to relate to my friends of my past experience at a hospital where I was afraid of a needle and tell them that when the nurse brought a syringe to give me an injection, I started to pronounce, I testify that nothing is worthy of worship but..
