  • Being patient when afflicted with passive-aggressive behaviours

    Salaam, I live in Canada and one of the habits of the non-Muslim white Canadians is to have a way of behaving that is known as "passive-aggressive".

  • Laughing at someone's misfortune

    Dearest scholars. I laughed at somebody else's misfortune one day and at the time I didn't see it as a big deal.

This was about a test mark, the person had received a lower grade than.. More

  • Rights usurped before embracing Islam must be returned to their owners

    Like many misguided people, I did many forbidden acts before converting to Islam, among them, purposefully running up my phone bill and not paying it (Since then, I left that country). I also stole things from people's homes. Am I obligated to reimburse the property that I illicitly acquired before converting to Islam? (I am aware that one must either.. More

  • How a non-Muslims gets retribution from Muslim oppressors in the Hereafter

    I have a query about this hadith: "The Prophet , said in a Qudsi (Sacred) Hadeeth: "Allaah will say on the Day of Judgment, 'I am the King. I am the Judge. It is not for any one of the people of the Fire to enter the Fire when someone from the people of Paradise has a right that belongs to him until I avenge him, and it is not for any one of the people..

  • Muslims may respond equally to abuse without excessive force

    Asalaamulaykum. My question is regarding the rights of an individual when someone (verbally) abuses or insults them. If someone insults a Muslim (e.g. by constant swearing, name calling, swear at Allah, mocking the Prophet(PBUH) etc...), the Muslim then moves away from the person but the person persists in their behaviour (either by following the Muslim..

  • The blame for a sin is not recurring after repenting from it

    Porn websites are haraam undoubtedly. Now the way they make money is from viewers clicking on the sight and viewing adverts on the sight from people viewing the site. My queston is if a Muslim viewed it for sinful purposes (which is wrong and should stop) they have provided the website with money indirectly. Will this person hold continuous sin forever.. More

  • Dedicating one's life to Islam is every Muslim's duty

    Can someone make the intention that they want to dedicate their life to Islam? By this, I do not mean like the monks of the previous nations, but as per the Sunnah of the Messenger, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, and to give Dawah to Islam and enjoin what is good and forbid what is evil.
