Firstly i want 2 congratulate u on an excellent website. May Allah reward u 4 ur efforts. I am a newly registered long time viewer and have recently read ur answer 2 da question regarding adoption where it is stated that an adopted child does not become a mehram. Does that mean we are not permitted to adopt?

Bismihi Ta’alaThe fact that adopted child doesn’t become a Mahram should not discourage one from adopting. If we can be means of making a childs life better, then this should be undertaken.
