There are a lot of misconceptions raised with regards to “wahdatul wujood”. Many salfis, ahlulhadeeth, la-madhabs claim that this is an aqeedah of Deobandis/sufis etc. They interpret it as “everything is Allah”. Please clarify it’s correct definition. Also, whether it is an aqeedah, and if it is a requirement for following the tareeqat.

I’m a young man in my 20’s, I have a problem of repeatedly doing the same sin, I can’t mention it specifically. Once I gave up this sin completely until 6-7 months passed, when I did it again and since then for a year and a half I regularly continue to sin. I feel that Imaan is decreasing in my heart. I repent to Allah (SWT) every time I sin but then after 4-5 days I do it again and repent again. I can’t stop COMPLETELY. Please tell me what I should do to stop COMPLETELY?

I read your fatwa concerning requiring permission of our parents to go to jamaat. You said that this is not necessary if they are stopping us because of a misguided reason, such as believing that it would take us away from our studies. But is it not true that in the time of the Prophet (pbuh) a man asked him permission to go for jihad even though his parents refused. And as far as I know the Prophet (pbuh) denied him permission because his parents didn’t approve. Is this story true, and if so then isn’t jamaat a form of jihad. Allah knows best.

i have two questions 1. Copying a Quran CD without asking the manufacturer is it allowed on of my friend told that it is the word of Allah and we don’t have to seek the permission from the CD Manufacturer is it allowed 2.who so ever uses 786 with the intention to obtain Allah’s blessings, is a misguided person and any attempt to justify it, is ignorance. More astonishing is that fact that ‘786’ is an aggregation of the numbers of Hindu ‘Lord Hari Krishna’. H(a)iri Kr(i)shna h-5, r-200, r-10, k-20, r-200, sh-300, n-50, a-1 = Aggregate of 786 please comment on the above

I’m 20 years old. Medically speaking, I have a weak sexual drive, along with other related problems. I’d like to get married sometime in the future, but I greatly fear that I won’t be able to sexually satisfy my wife, because of my condition. I’m a man and I have my own (physical) needs, but I don’t want my needs getting fulfilled at the expense of others. Is it still advisable for me to get married or should I remain single the rest of my life?

My brother works in an American bank but his work is not directly related to any loan or interest related transactions. His area of work focuses on strategic marketing of credit card related products for the bank, such as determining late fees (not interest) to be charged, etc. He is inviting me to stay at his house and obviously that would include eating at his place. I would like to know if it is halal to eat at his place considering that he is a bank employee. A quick response will be greatly appreciated.

I was impressed by your teachings and respected Maulana Tariq Jameel. Did (niqab) for six months. I however have chronic sinus trouble on account of a congenital defect in the hard palate of inside of my mouth. That has also been the cause of my chronic ear infections and so forth which actually led me to undergo several bilateral ear surgeries and now I have to wear hearing aids in both my ears or else I am practically deaf. Anyway my question is that when I started doing niqab infections again started in my sinuses and finally it took over 2 months for it to resolve fully with treatment. Then I started cutting a slit in the niqab to keep the flow of air between the nose and the outside without a barrier. With cutting a slit the cloth of the niqab has to adhere closely to the face for the slit to remain open. On doing so if and when I have to clear my nose i have to keep pulling the niqab down and it gets out of place and finally the entire setup of niqab to stay in place gets disturbed in public what I mean is it gets too disorderly and looks very shabby. Now I am not doing niqab but I cover my head fully with no makeup and also wear dark glasses when possible and also my dress is always black for the most part and extremely loose. kindly advise regarding niqab?
