Please can you tell me if death benefit schemes are permissible in Shariah? These are typically schemes where you pay an annual amount, say £25 to an association, and if someone dies in the family, they then pay for all funeral costs. To me it seems to be simple straightforward insurance and therefore haram?

Is there a Hadith about Keeping One’s Car Clean?

Shaykh Muhammad ibn AdamRead

Schools often visit our masjid and they pay for coming in and visit it (classes of around 15 to 25 students and their teachers). At least 10 brothers can alternate themselves, depending on their availability, dedicating their time, sometimes 45 minutes up to 2 hours, and welcoming and introducing the masjid to those schools. Here are my questions: 1) It is lawful taking the money, by the management of the masjid for the masjid, for the visit, considering that we have the opportunity to directly talk with them and let them hear from a Muslim the correct Islamic point of view of their questions? 2) It is lawful for the brother(s) to take some of the amount paid by the school, considering this as a refund for the time wasted, or for any other reason. Here is a brief explanation of the 2° question: I’m working, and I have to living my work to a friend of mine, came to the mosque and spending there 2 hours. I want to be paid for the 2 hours. Or: I’ve to take the bus, and I’m loosing a lot of time, so I want to be paid for doing such thing.

The Fiqh of Adopting a Child

Shaykh Muhammad ibn AdamRead

I have sent my zakat for the year to my father in-law to distribute within Pakistan on my behalf, but I have a concern as to how far my responsibilities lie on following up where this money goes. My father in-law distributes this money to people he knows as genuinely poor and also to Islamic madrasas. I don’t want to question him in great detail as he may think I am questioning my trust in him. However, I believe he did not give all the money away. He is in great debt which my husband and I will take it on ourselves to pay off, but I do not wish my zakat money to go to him, as I believe my husband and I should pay this and will pay it insha Allah. I will insha Allah take a stand and not give him responsibility for my zakat next year as I take the zakat very seriously because it is due to Allah’s Grace that we have this wealth.
