Assalamualaikum, Can I name my daughter as Ayzah Amirah Pathan ?

Assalamu alaykum I have been paying some backlogs of my zakat for haul year 2024. I used our national online zakat platform and recently discovered that I have paid for the wrong haul year because every time I look at the payment record for that year I thought it is the haul year but it is not, it is actually payment record i made for the particular year. So I have paid more than $1472.5 for haul 2024. Since this is 2 years ago and I now have to make payment for haul 2025, can this huge excess be considered for 2025? JazakAllahu Khair.

My marriage is a happy one, but one day I was doing household work alone in intense heat and humidity. Because of that, I felt angry at my wife for not helping me. Disturbing thoughts, whispers, and strange ideas started coming into my mind, and perhaps I began imagining a conversation with my wife. In that state, I involuntarily said: “Go home. I want a divorce from you. Astaghfirullah, O Allah, I did not intend divorce — these words just suddenly came out.” Then I returned to my senses and started worrying whether, because of what I said, the divorce has actually taken place. My major inclination is that I did not intend to give it in that moment but I am worried if maybe intention was in that imaginary scenario when the words were uttered. I also am unable to recall exactly.

I am a revert, and this man told me that he wanted to marry me. I made sincere dua for us to have our nikkah, and Allah (SWT) granted part of what I asked for, but I feel I may have taken that blessing for granted. Now his mother is refusing the marriage. She is concerned because my parents follow a different religion. She fears that any future grandchildren may be influenced by their maternal grandparents, and she also does not like the fact that she did not have the power to choose her sons wife. I want to speak to his mother directly, or that she would reach out to me, so she can see that I am steadfast in my faith and sincere in my intentions. I want her to know that I may potentially lose my parents as they disapprove, and I want a family, I want her to be a part of our lives. He is her only son, and she has threatened to cut ties with him and withdraw all support if he goes ahead with marrying me. This has deeply hurt him. She does not seem to realise that by being so adamant in her refusal, she risks losing him. He has said that if he is forced to marry someone of her choosing, he would move away from his parents entirely. His family has suggested that I move out of my family home and live on my own, but they do not understand how difficult that would be for me. When he told his family about the abuse I have been facing, they questioned why I do not simply involve the police if I feel so strongly about islam. This response has made the situation even more complicated and painful. My parents are also hurt by the choices I have made and believe that I am doing something wrong, even though I do not believe that I am. I am making istikhara day and night for Allah swt to soften his mothers heart.

I’m unsure if I emitted maniy or if it’s vaginal discharge - it was watery but also sticky, white/ clear, it didn’t smell prominent, when it dried on the tissue it didn’t cause stiffness, I couldn’t scrape anything with my nail - however this came when I woke up for fajr, I don’t recall a dream but I was asleep so how would I know if it was a nocturnal emission, please answer per hanafi fiqh

A husband purchased several lands and partnership shares of a firm using his own earnings. He legally registered all these assets in his wife's name during her lifetime. His intention for this registration was to ensure her financial security in case he passed away before her. However, the wife passed away while the husband is still alive. The husband now claims that since his specific intention (providing security after his death) can no longer be fulfilled, the gift is void, and he should be the sole owner of all those properties. The Heirs: The deceased woman is survived by: Her husband Two sons Two daughters Our Queries: Under Shariah (Hanafi Fiqh), once a husband gifts a property to his wife and completes the legal transfer, does it become her absolute property (Milk)? Is the husband's claim valid that the property should revert to him entirely because his "intention" was not met? Since the wife has passed away, how should these properties (now part of her estate) be distributed among the heirs mentioned above? Kindly provide a detailed ruling as this is an urgent matter causing disputes within the family.

Salam everyone. I’m a 29-year-old woman, having a stable career, but living at home with my parents. I’m reaching a breaking point and feel completely alone in this situation. I would be so grateful for any advice or to hear from anyone who has been through something similar. I love and respect my parents deeply, especially my mother, who has sacrificed a lot for me. However, her protectiveness has become overwhelming. The biggest conflict right now is about a potential marriage partner. I (29) have been speaking with a man (30) a while. We both like each other, are serious, have careers, and want to move forward in a halal manner in future. My mother, however, is adamantly opposed. Her own marriage has been unhappy for 33 years, and she projects her fears and experience onto me. She believes I am naïve and make hasty decisions. The specific issue is that she performed Istikharah regarding this man. Afterward, she had a bad dream, which she has interpreted as a divine sign that I will not have security with him. She takes this as a definitive answer from Allah and has told me to "get over him." She, along with my father, refuses to even meet him in person (as per my suggestion) to form a personal judgment based on evidence, (in addition to her Istikharah) sticking solely to her dream interpretation. I personally feel this is deeply unfair. I understand that dreams ALSO can be influenced by one's own fears and emotions. Me and her are very different in terms of personality. I have a positive outlook, seeing some potential in him and willing to give him a chance. Humans are not perfect after all. But my parent’s perspective says otherwise. I’m the one who will get married here so I’m very disappointed of the way they handle things especially when it comes to marriage (I know them very well that marriage is the most difficult topic to discuss and agreeing with them). How can I respectfully move past this impasse? Has anyone successfully navigated a similar situation with overprotective parents regarding marriage? What practical steps did you take? JazakAllah Khair for reading and for any guidance you can offer. Please make du'a for me.

asalamualaikum. i have a close person to me whose date of birth was mentioned 1 year younger by her parents . later on , at the age of 15, she changed it to one more year younger while looking at the dob of other classmates, she didn't know that it was a sin and is haram. she is very repentful about it and want to know that she is a doctor and the date of birth will not effect her normal work , but can affect her retirement age if she gets a government job , so if she pre-retires 2 years earlier, will her rest of the income be halal as it most likely is not dependent on her date of birth and will the rest of her income be halal which is independent of her dob ? jazakallah khair .

Assalamoalikum Till yesterday I was not aware of conditional divorce. Few days I ago I said to wife if you continue with abusive and vulgar language I will leave you. It was neither threat nor divorce. What I had decided that if she continue same I will send her message of divorce. And same message to few others as witnesses. But I was not certain if I will do on first instance or tolerate 2-3 times and then do it. Kindly clarify if is it conditional divorce or promise of divorce. Extremely confused.

I live in Florida and would visit theme parks for an outing with my husband, however I found out that the theme parks and resort support Israel by donating money to them a few years ago. Is it sinful for me to visit the amusement park?
