Is it permissible for a Muslim woman dentist to treat male patients, both Muslim and non-Muslim?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
Most respectfully, I Md. Akhtar Hussain, resident of Dibrugarh, Assam seek an amicable judgement on a land related matter in the light of holy Quran and Hadith. My grandfather Lt Tayab Hussain had five daughters and only one son namely Lt Anwar Hussain who was my father. We are five (5) brothers. And now that our father has died who was the only boy child in the family, one of the granddaughters of Lt Tayab Hussain has occupied a plot of land which is in the name of my father. And now after we all have grown up, we registered our names in the respective Patta for security of our future and asked her to vacate the land which she has been occupying illegally for years. But she does not want to vacate the said plot of land. In this context, will your authority kindly let me know in details what the Muslim law says and predicts in the matter and pave a way for settlement of the conflict amicably. Hope for your response at the earliest

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

(Fatwa: 903/B-170/TB=06/1435)

If the above mentioned plot was in your father’s name and he was its owner then after his death all his five sons shall share the inheritance. The granddaughter of Janab Tayab Hussain Sahib has no right in it. She should vacate the plot and hand it to the five sons of Anwar Hussain. It is not lawful to violate the rights of someone and usurp it.

Allah knows Best!

Random Q&A

  I bought shares in a listed company over a period of 7 years.  The shares were bought at various prices; some were at a higher price than the current share price, and some were bought at a lower price than the current share price. Some were bought with my own money, and some were bought with money borrowed on a 0% credit card. I recently discovered that the company is haram because it has no earnings, except from interest, and has large debt on which it pays interest. I understand that I must sell the shares, and any profit made has to be donated to charity. I need some advice on how to go about selling the shares, as the total value of my holding is less than what I paid/invested. Some shares are in profit, the majority are in a loss.  There are a few options available: 1)      Wait until the total value of the shares is equal to the  money I invested, and sell. This means that some share will be in profit,  and some will be at loss, but the profit cancels out the loss. 2)      Sell shares as each lot/tranche of shares reaches the price that I paid for them. Donate any excess to charity. This means that it may take  a long time to dispose of the shares, as the price will have to at least double. In fact, the price may never reach what I paid. Do I need to treat the shares purchased by borrowing money on credit card separately to the shares purchased using my own money. How should I deal with transaction costs? If it cost me £12 to buy 10 000 shares at 10p, and it costs me £12 to sell the shares, I have lost £24.
