Reflecting over death and the events that will occur thereafter to give up sin

Submitted by user2 on Mon, 2018-11-05 06:52

Q: I have recently started alimah classes and am halfway through with my hifz. Alhamdulillah, due to the Deeni knowledge that I have been exposed to, I have become more conscious of Allah and I began to worry that my imaan was too weak. I want to strengthen my Imaan.

There are two main things that I am doing that worry me. I watch tv and read a lot of romance novels. I have tried, but I can't stop both at once.

Can Mufti Saheb inform me of which is worse, so that I can concentrate on that first?

Submitted by user2 on Sun, 2018-11-04 07:57

Q: I was listening to one of your recordings. I came to know that we should not talk about sins in detail when making tawbah.. have I understood correctly? If I mistakenly backbite shouldn't I say forgive me for backbiting..or forgive me I couldn't pray fajr today? I am not clear. Can you explain?

Submitted by user2 on Tue, 2018-10-23 07:15

Q: A relative who is famous for doing taweez, magic came to my home. Since I had curiosity, I opened her purse to check if its true. I saw a taweez there and closed the purse. What I did was without her knowledge. Now I have guilt feeling that it was wrong to open her purse without permission. If I tell her, she would get furious. What to do?

Asking forgiveness from the person one had harmed

Submitted by user2 on Sat, 2018-09-08 06:55

Q: If a person tries to murder a person but the person doesn't die. The person who tried to murder him wants to repent. Does he have to ask for forgiveness from Allah only or should he also ask forgiveness from the person he tried to murder and if so, if the person only asked forgiveness from Allah but not the person he tried to murder, is it sufficient?

Repenting after earning haraam livelihood

Submitted by user2 on Tue, 2018-07-17 07:39

Q: If a man who has earned his living through illicit ways not permitted in Islam as recorded in the renowned personals, including but not limited to accepting and soliciting bribes, misappropriation of public fund etc. during his entire period of service repents sincerely after he retires from Govt. service, would he be accepted by Allah, especially if he uses his ill gotten gains to sustain himself and perform all necessaries afterwards? Does the same logic apply to robbery and trickery, money lending with interest, sale of narcotics, etc.? Is wealth amassed in such a way even if one turns over a new leaf?

Committing zina with one's autistic brother

Submitted by user2 on Mon, 2018-07-09 06:58

Q: When my friend was 10 and 13 she tried committing zina with her autistic brother. She believes that at the time she didn't know what this action was. Her brother has been tested to have no sexual fantasies. She believes that the penis did not penetrate the vagina, which means this is not intercourse. She has repented and 100% knows she won't do it again. She still feels guilty, does she have to leave home, where would she go? She doesn't want to reveal this to her family.
