I recommended others to join as investors and he paid me for each person about 200 or so. I did it as a job. I already filed proof of debt in our country’s department. I did not know that he is cheating us. 5 years had passed and the bankruptcy department said no news about him. My question is must I make a police report and will Salat Hajat help me to know about him. Please advise, I just want to know about him before I die.

You should consult with a local scholar who specializes in exorcism; it is likely that he would be able to help you in removing your suspicions.

Random Q&A

Question: I really like your stance on everything. It has really opened up a new door to me, as it never occurred to me that maybe, just maybe, Allah isn’t above us. Since I was a young boy, I’ve raised my hands to the sky praying to Allah. Oh how wrong I was! I could’ve have been making Du’aa’ towards the floor! In other words, if Allah is the Most High, and if He isn’t above us, that would mean that he is everywhere. maybe, he’s inside all of us as well….. as you can see from my flawed thinking, this is why we need to discuss this issue and this is why this issue is one of great importance. many misconceptions can come from flaws in people’s Aqeedah no matter how small. So instead of dismissing this as an issue that has not been of debate, Clearly it has been debate because the way of thinking I just presented to you is from many different misguided sects.
