Dear respected Mufti Saheb, I consider myself to have missed many wajib Qurbanis/Udhiyahs as per the Hanafi School in the past 27 years and I intended to make up for all of them at once. I read that as a standard rule in the Hanafi School a goat or the price of one goat must be given away entirely in charity. (I am not sure if this rule only applies beyond the days of Eid ul Adha or also during the days of Eid ul Adha for past missed Qurbanis.) However, the overwhelming majority of trustworthy international Islamic aid organizations based in my country only facilitate the donation of proper Islamic slaughter of mostly sheep and cows and then distribute the meat worldwide to those eligible to receive it (they send a video of the actual slaughter as proof and as verification, so that eases my heart and takes away all doubts). It is very difficult, if not impossible, to ask specifically for goats to be slaughtered on my behalf. Almost all of these organizations either slaughter 1/7th of a cow on your behalf or one sheep. The majority of the slaughter is done through one-seventh share of a cow on your behalf. I was unable to select a specific animal (i.e. goats) for my Qurbanis/Udhiyahs. The Islamic aid organizations themselves decide which animals are to be slaughtered. The aforementioned Islamic aid organizations categorize countries in which the meat is slaughtered and distributed in different groups/categories, usually ranging from category A (which includes the poorest countries in which it is the most affordable/cheapest to buy an animal for Qurbani/Udhiyah, between 75 euros and 100 euros for 1/7th share in a cow) all the way to category D or even category F (these are richer and-well to do countries in which buying an animal for Qurbani/Udhiyah is by far the most expensive/most priciest, at least 250 euros for 1/7th share in a cow all the way up to 500+ euros for 1/7th share in a cow). What I did is the following: I ordered and paid for 27 individual one-seventh (1/7th) shares of cows (instead of 27 goats) online just one day prior to Eid-ul-Adha of this year (2025) through one of the aforementioned Islamic aid organizations operating internationally and I selected the option that my Qurbanis/Udhiyahs are slaughtered and distributed in category A countries (the most poorest countries where the price of Qurbani animals is the least expensive and the most affordable). I did so with the intention of making up qadha the past 27 years of missed wajib Qurbanis/Udhiyahs as per the Hanafi School. Also, it is important to mention for me that I give all the meat away in charity for make-up (qadha) purposes, I take none of it for myself nor for family and friends. The 27 shares of cows that I bought will be of course slaughtered and distributed on the specified days after the Eid prayers on the Day of Slaughter (Al-Yawm an-Nahr) and possibly the day after as well (though they aim to slaughter all animals on the first day that it is allowed to do so). Have I fully fulfilled my obligations as per the Hanafi School for making-up (qadha) my past 27 years of missed Qurbanis/Udhiyahs by doing so? Also, it would have been extremely difficult for me to purchase 27 shares of cows or 27 sheep in the most expensive category of countries, where one share of a cow or one sheep would have been at least 250 euros or even 500+ euros (ranging from 6750 euros all the way up to 13500 euros). I have many debts and choosing category A countries was the option that was still affordable for me. Are my make-up qadha Qurbanis/Udhiyahs still valid or is this considered cheating? Eagerly awaiting your answer dear Mufti Saheb, much salaam and respect, M.N.

Salam.i have been having waswasa for nearly 2 years.its almost in everything .i get kufr thoughts which i hate and dont want to come in my mind but some time it feels they were delibrate thoughts though i hate them and fear about them . Then i get waswasa about impurity transfer almost every day. My kids got to swimming and if swimming water is impure as most non muslim kids in it so kids become impure i try my level best to not let them touch any thing untill i give them bath but obviously its not possible as ther are kids and will touch things. This time i washed their swimming cloth in laundary along with other cloth and accidently put plastic bag in laundary with cloths in that bag i put their impure swimming cloths. I did laundary on three rinse cycles.but now my mind is stuck to that water might not get into plastic bag. So ot wouldnt have get pure and it made other cloths impure too . And what about washing line pegs and banister where i put them wet cloth are they all impure .i have got these waswas before and ends up washing laundary again washing line pegs everything . What shall i do .i get lods of whisper about halal haram. And whispers about being a very sin full person . Due to my own week iman i can,tcompletly stop them but i try to reduce their severity. Plz help me and advise me something to overcome this.
Assalamu alaykum wa rahmatullah. My question is that I have been diagnosed with OCD for about a year and a half and the act of wudu and salat has become very overbearing and time-consuming for me, as well as stressful. Due to this, I regret to say I often do not perform my salat. There are instances where I attempt to start again, but it is typically only for a short period due to how difficult it is for me to perform these tasks. Am I going to be considered a Kaffir as the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ once said "The covenant between us (Muslims) and them (kuffar) is Salah, so whoever leaves it is a Kaffir."

I'm planning on taking a student loan for my masters as I have no other way. I don't have a job, though I'm activelylooking for one. My parents aren't able to pay (no relative is willing to help). I have no other option, I've looked into grants and all other things but I'm not eligible for anything. My father is not able to pay for my tuition. When I say I'm in dire need, I'm fully aware of my actions and I've no other choice. I've made countless duas. I know Allah will help me out. If I don't study, my life is done. The mental pressure is too much. If you live in a desi household you would know. I've no option left

Assalamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh, I hope this message finds you well. I am seeking your guidance regarding the permissibility of using a certain cosmetic product, specifically the Fino Premium Touch hair mask by Shiseido. I want to ensure that it complies with Islamic dietary and purity laws before using it. The product’s full ingredient list is as follows: Water, Sorbitol, Dimethicone, Hydrogenated Rapeseed Alcohol, Isopentyldiol, Behentrimonium Chloride, Aminopropyl Dimethicone, Hydroxypropyl Arginine Lauryl/Myristyl Ether HCl, Stearyl Dihydroxypropyldimonium Oligosaccharides, Glutamic Acid, Trehalose, Squalane, Steartrimonium Chloride, PEG-90M, PCA, Phytosteryl/Octyldodecyl Lauroyl Glutamate, Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, Polyquaternium-64, Hydrolyzed Wheat Starch, Royal Jelly Extract, Isopropyl Alcohol, Cetyl Alcohol, Octyldodecanol, Alcohol, Propylene Glycol, Butylene Glycol, Tocopherol, Phenoxyethanol, Sodium Benzoate, Fragrance, CI 15985. From my research and understanding, I gather the following: Most ingredients are derived from vegetable or synthetic sources. Some ingredients, such as squalane, cetyl alcohol, and steartrimonium chloride, can potentially have animal origins but are usually sourced from plants or synthetically produced in modern cosmetics. The product contains royal jelly extract, which is of bee origin but is generally considered permissible. Even if some ingredients were originally animal-derived, the extensive chemical transformations they undergo during production may change their nature completely. According to the principle of istihāla (transformation), substances originally impure or of animal origin may become pure and permissible if their properties and essence have significantly changed. Given these points, I kindly seek your scholarly opinion: Based on the ingredient list and the concept of istihāla, is it permissible for me to use this product as a Muslim woman? Are there any concerns or additional precautions I should consider regarding such cosmetic products? Thank you very much for your time and guidance. JazakAllahu khairan.
Based on quran, sunnah and authentic ahadith (with references) can grandparents enforce decisions in the matter of their grandchildren? E.g. my father is adamant that he will name my child. I want to information backed by Quran, Sunnah and authentic Ahadith to share the extent of what my father can suggest vs who's final authority it is in matters of one's children If I don't accept my father's suggestion and pick a name of my choosing, would I be sinful of disobedience?

Soap and impurity

Ulamaa ID 04
Does washing your hands with bar soap make it impure? For example, after going to the toilet, I turn on the tap, wet my hands, and take the soap to wash my hands — in that case, does the soap become impure? Or if I take the soap directly.

Salam alaykum, I am struggling with these problems the past couple months and really need some advice. I am undiagnosed but suspected with Autism and placed on a waiting list by my GP, i've been diagnosed with ADHD. Part of my issues is that i struggle with sensory issues, especially with smell. My autism/ADHD symptoms became worse after a very stressful year at mosque where i was monitored inside and outside of mosque to make sure no islamic rules were broken otherwise i'd get kicked out, i feel like this depleted my emotional strength and might have induced some sort of PTSD in me. Ever since then i've become weaker at tolerating sensory overload and have become worse at masking aspects of autism - such as lots of communication with people and i get tired very often. my mother saw my symtpoms of constnat meltdowns and thought i was possesed by jinn and she's conacted teachers in india who confirmed her claims of me being possesed by ashiq jin - they diagnosed me through photos of my hair & my mother's mother's name . I had a session with a raqi in the uk that uses quranic ruqya, and he told me that i am not possessed as i showed no symptoms and that its autism and my mother should understand. she doesnt understand and insists that i am still possesed by a ashiq. i read surah baqarah every day but my symptoms of sensory overload dont seem to go, so im convinced it's autism. because my mum doesnt believe in autism at all or any other mental health issues, she doesnt cater to any of my communications with her and gets angry if i tell her that i cant be in a room due to strong smells etc. I have moved out to protect my mental health, but every week i go back its the same argument. I dont know what to do, and have no one to communicate this with, i haven't told any of my friends as i'm ashamed of moving out but i had to do this as i was self harming through constant meltdowns and felt suicidal. Please can you give me some advice as the guilt is destroying me, i feel as though i've dissapointed allah greatly through moving out and my inability to have a relationship with my mother, as she doesnt understand at all despite what i tell her, and depsite me telling her i've been diagnosed, seen a raqi etc. please i need some islamic giudance on this, i really need your help.
