Are any smells from vagina a hinderance to wudhu? I constantly wash with water, change daily liners but sometimes this is not in my control. The underwear is not wet and there is no discharges. There is no medical issues. I always try to change prior to wudhu and salah.

No as long as there is no discharge which is the sign of Hayz or urine then there is no need to do wudhu if it has not become invalid due to any other reasons e.g. sleeping or passing gas from rear etc.

My period is due in a few days but today I’ve been have some brown discharge which goes away after a few wipes but then comes back and hour later. Does this classify as menstruation and am I supposed to be reading my wajib salah during this time or not?

Is bikini waxing allowed?

57) It is obligatory to conceal one's private parts in the toilet and at all times from adult persons even if they are one's near relatives (like mother, sister etc.) Similarly, it is obligatory to conceal one's private parts from insane persons, and from children who can discern between good and evil. However, husband and wife are exempted from this obligation.

Now in case of bikini waxing as this is just a beatification of a body and not for a medical issue so a woman is not allowed show her body to other women if it has possibility of rise their sexual desire, otherwise she must cover her whole body this to be is that she must cover the private parts to all other than her Husband, however, if the other parts cause sexual desire, then she must cover those as well.

Anything upto 8-9 days as thats my habit, is hayz and anything after whatever flow light, medium or heavy, its istehadha. Right?

I am a (removed) year old girl from (removed) who has been struggling with spirituality for a prolonged period of time now. It has exhausted me, especially since i haven’t experienced a spiritual low like this in so long. I long to regain high spirituality, but even though i still perform prayer & read the Quran, i can’t seem to feel a connection with God. Any advice would be appreciated for i am incredibly lost at the moment.

there is dua from Sheikh Bahayee r.a anyone if has any problem 10 day every day 100 times if this dua will recite Allah (swt) will remove his/ her problem
Dua:
بسم الله الرحمن الرحیم: یا مُفَتِّحَ الاَبواب،یا مُقَلِّبَ القُلوبِ وَالاَبصار،یا دَلیلَ المُتَحَیِّرین،یا غِیاثَ المُستَغیثین،تَوَکَّلتُ عَلَیک،یا رَبِّ اِقضِ حاجَتی وَلاحَولَ وَلاقُوَّةَ اِلّآ بِاللهِ العَلِیِّ العَظیم،وَصَلَّی اللهُ عَلی محَمَّدٍ وَآلِهِ اَجمَعین

I am a (removed) year old girl. I’m contacting you because I need your help. When I was about (removed) years old I was sexually molested, it went on until I think I was (removed) and/or (removed). My dad passed away when I was (removed) so all this began after his death. When I was (removed), I started watching pornography nonstop. I watched it all the time. I don’t remember how many times a week I did but I got hooked on it. I became very depressed and I watch till this day. I tried to stop watching it for a month and it worked, but I gave in sometime this week and watched. The feeling it gives me after I finish is repulsive and I don’t want to feel this way. I am aware that this bad habit of mine is blocking my blessings. I’ve never been in love, I never had a serious relationship before. I want to meet someone soon but in order for that to happen I want to heal and I want to get rid of this disgusting habit. Please do not judge me.

Its really sad May Allah(swt) help you.
I know its obvious when a person becomes addicted to something then its hard to leave that habit easily. But its not impossible. The only thing required is a firm determination. When we get sick and the doctor advises that we have to leave few things that is necessary for our body, though its not a easy task but we all try slowly to leave that thing to keep healthy. Any sin( Gunah ), the major effects it causes on us is that it takes the ability of thinking from us. But Allah (swt) has given us Aql ( intellect) and also has said if we try in His way one step He will come towards us 10 steps but its you and we who has to take initiative and start it. It takes time to keep aside any addiction but for that you have to do few important things and the very important step in this way is that:
1- You have make your decesion firm and seek help from Allah.
2- If possible for you and your are doing any any important job by using internet please stop using net data for few days.
3- Dont go in privacy and always try to be with your family members
4- Make a vow (ahad) that anytime you commit this sin will give few money as sadaqa to the poor. If it works then ok otherwise make your vow bit harder and do niyyat that you will fast one day for each time if you repeat the same sin.
4- Always be with wuzu and recite dua in any language which you know.
5- Dont eat full stomach. Stop eating while you are still hungry.
6- Dont go to the bed unless you feel sleepy.
7- Dont be alone.
Ask Allah to help you as much as you can inshallah He is the best helper and likes to help who seeks His help.

I wanted to ask if I was to get laser hair removal, is it permissible to show my private parts to a female that will be carrying out the process.

Surah An-Noor, Verse 30:
قُل لِّلْمُؤْمِنِينَ يَغُضُّوا مِنْ أَبْصَارِهِمْ وَيَحْفَظُوا فُرُوجَهُمْ ذَٰلِكَ أَزْكَىٰ لَهُمْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ خَبِيرٌ بِمَا يَصْنَعُونَ

Say to the believing men that they cast down their looks and guard their private parts; that is purer for them; surely Allah is Aware of what they do (sura An Noor/30)

No it's not allowed it is haram to show one's private parts to anybody except her/his spouse.

Is there any advice or duas to recite for one hoping to have a baby boy?

I'm sending this all because it can also affect in conceiving child :
SEXUAL TECHNIQUES:

There are no particular rules and laws either in foreplay or in intercourse. The only laws and rules are the ones reached by the lovers by mutual and often unspoken understanding. Whatever is pleasing and satisfying to both the husband and the wife is right and proper; and whatever is mutually displeasing is wrong. The only limitation to this general rule would be any Shariah rule, which goes against the wishes of the husband or the wife.

A. Foreplay is Highly Recommended:
Islam emphasizes on foreplay. Imam Ali (as) says, "When you intend to have sex with your wife, do not rush because the woman (also) has needs (which should be fulfilled)." Sex without foreplay has been equated to cruelty. Holy Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.) said, "Three people are cruel: .a person who has sex with his wife before foreplay."

Another hadith equates sex without foreplay to animal behavior: "When anyone of you has sex with his wife, then he should not go to her like birds; instead he should be slow and delaying."

As for the role of a woman in sexual foreplay, the Imams have praised a wife who discards shyness when she is with her husband. Imam Muhammad al-Baqir (a.s.) says, "The best woman among you is the one who discards the armor of shyness when she undresses for her husband, and puts on the armor of shyness when she dresses up again." After all, modesty and chastity in public is the hallmark of a Muslim lady.

These sayings clearly show that the husband and the wife should feel completely free when they are engaged in mutual stimulation, which is known as foreplay. There is nothing wrong, according to Islam, for a woman to be active and responsive during sex. As for the Islamic Shariah, all the mujtahids are unanimous in saying that the act of sexual foreplay in itself is mustahab (recommended). Likewise, it is recommended not to rush into sexual intercourse. The operative word is mutual pleasure and satisfaction.

B. Techniques of Foreplay:
As far as the methods of mutual stimulation in foreplay are concerned, the Shariah allows the husband and the wife to see, kiss, touch, smell and stimulate any part of each other's body. Therefore, oral sex, as it is known, is allowed. Imam Musa al-Kazim (a.s.) was once asked, "Can a person kiss his wife's vagina?" The Imam said, "No problem."

The only restriction is that no foreign object should be used. The restriction on the use of foreign objects is based on the following hadith. Ubaydullah bin Zurarah says that he had an old neighbor who owned a young slave-girl. Because of his old age, he could not fully satisfy the young slave-girl during sexual intercourse. She would therefore ask him to place his fingers in her vagina, as she liked it. The old man complied with her wishes even though he did not like this idea. So he requested Ubaydullah to ask Imam Ali ar-Reza (a.s.) about it. When Ubaydullah asked the Imam about it, Imam Ali ar-Reza (a.s.) said, "There is no problem as long as he uses any part of his own body upon her, but he should not use anything other than his body on her."

Though masturbation (i.e., self-stimulation of one's own sexual organ till emission of semen or orgasm) is not allowed, in the case of married persons, there is no problem if the wife stimulates her husband's penis till the emission of semen or the husband stimulates his wife's vagina till orgasm. This is allowed because it does not come under "self-stimulation;" it is stimulation by a lawful partner.

C. Sexual Intercourse:
Is there any particular position for sexual intercourse, which is forbidden in Islam? No! As far as the basic coital positions are concerned, there are no restrictions. The term 'basic coital positions' denotes the positions known as the man above, face to face, woman above face to face; side position, face to face; rear-entry position in which the husband penetrates the vagina from the rear. Actually, the Shariah has left it on the husband and the wife to explore and experiment as they wish. However, it is makruh to adopt a standing position, or to face the Qiblah or keep it on the backside during the intercourse. It is advisable to refrain from the acrobatic positions given by some sexologists of the East and the West, which might even cause physical harm.

Remember, the basic rule is mutual pleasure and flexibility. If one partner does not like a particular position, then the other should yield to his or her feelings. It is highly emphasized that at the commencement of intercourse the partners should recite Bismillaahir Rah'maanir Rah'eem (In the name of Allah the Beneficent, the Merciful).

D. Anal Intercourse:
The opinions of our mujtahids vary on the permissibility of anal intercourse. The majority of the Shi'ah mujtahids have derived two conclusions: (1) that anal intercourse is not Haraam but strongly disliked (karahatan shadidah) provided the wife agrees to it. (2) and if she does not agree to it, then all mujtahids say that it is precautionarily wajib to refrain from it.

However, during the last decade of his life, Ayatullah al-Khu'i departed from the majority view and gave the ruling that it was precautionarily wajib to abstain from anal intercourse no matter whether the wife agrees to it or not.

Maulana Sayyid Muhammad Rizvi says, "I would strongly advise against anal intercourse," and quotes the saying of Imam Jafar as-Sadiq and Imam Ali ar-Reza (a.s.) about anal intercourse: "Woman is a means of your pleasure, therefore do not harm her."

E. Hygiene:
After the intercourse the partners may first wipe their genitals with clean pieces of cloth. It is recommended that the same cloth/towel must not be used by both of them.

09. DUA FOR PREGNANCY:

Imam Jafar as-Sadiq (a.s.) has taught the following dua:

Transliteration: Allaahumma laa tadharni fardanw wa anta khairul waaretheen wah'eedanw wah'sheeyan fayaqs'uroo a'n tafakkori bal habli a'afiyata s'idqin dhokooranw wa onaathan aanaso behim minal wah'shate wa askuno ilaihim minal wah'date wa ashkoroka I'nda tamaame ne'matin yaa wahhaabo yaa a'zeemo yaa mo-a'z'z'amo thumma a'at'eni fee kulle a'afiyatin shukran h'atta tabloghani minha riz"waanoka fee s'idqil h'adeethe adaaail amaanate wa waqaaain bil 'ahde

Translation: O Allah! Do not keep me solitary though You are the best of Inheritors. I am alone and terrified of loneliness. This worry has reduced my thankfulness to You. So bestow on me true forgiveness and give me female and male children so that by their company I can cure my terror of loneliness. By which my loneliness is cured. So that on the completion of this bounty I can thank You. O the greatest Giver, O the Greatest, O the Bestower of greatness, after this bestows me with tawfeeq that I thank You for every kindness. Till I can achieve Your kindness by thankfulness, by speaking the truth, by returning trusts andby fulfilling oaths

Also recite Ziyarat e Ashura and Dua e Alqama then pray 2 Rakats namaz under the open sky for 40 Mornings when sun is going to be rise but make sure every day timing should be same.
Also there are many more Duas you can find on the site www.duas.org

Can a gents Dr do a delivery of women ?

If the doctor of the same sex is able to cure the patient than it is impermissible to refer to a doctor of the opposite gender.

Ladies Dr are available but we have financial problems, in this case what’s the solution?

If possible to have lady dr in your bugdet then better to see a lady Dr.

I have two questions that I need answers for please.

1- If I have cream or foundation on my face and I wash that off before wudu with soap. Then my face is already wet. I have been told that you cannot perform wudu on an already went face. Is this correct? Or can I do my wudu as normal even if my face is wet?

2- After sexual contact with husband, if I take a shower immediately and pray but later realise that I still have some discharge which might be my husbands sperm discharge and not my own, do I need to have another ghusal? Or is the first one sufficient even if I have a discharge remaining from my husband?

1- There is no need to wipe your face you can do wudhu with your wet face.
2- After having sexual intercourse if any has passed urine and then performs Ghusl now after having ghusl if she sees any discharge then her ghusl is valid otherwise if without passing urine if she performed ghusl and then having discharge in that case she has to do ghusl e janabat again.

If blood is continuous for 3 days then there is break then blood again, do I have to pray in the break? If yes do I have to do ghusl before praying?

If you have fixed habit of hayz then during the days of your habit will be hayz and the 2nd phase after your temporary state of being pak will consider as istihaza

My son fell in so called love with a hindu girl in his class. I asked him but he always lied to me that he is not having any relationship. While leaving for hostel I found love letters and cards from his bag and I told him that this is haraam relationship and will not be accepted by us at all. I secretly removed the letter and cards from my son. When he came to know about it since then he is not talking to me and doesn't want to keep any relation with me. He is a typical boy who doesn't want to follow any religion and he also doesn't like us (his parents) for we ask him to offer namaaz and religion. I am very troubled how to get him on the right path. I am too worried as since last month he hasn't talk to me

No doubt your situation is very sensitive but first of all you have to take your boy in your faith.Please do not force him a lot try to convince him that you are his well wisher not an enemy he is in extremely sensitive age but he is not only boy who is behaving that.There are many boys who do same in this age. You sit with him and with full confidence and calmness talk with him.Give him examples and make him understand that what he is doing is not important but because he is still so young and there are many challenges he has to face in his life so first he has to concentrate on his career then when he will reach to the age he could do what h wants to do.Do be too much inquisitive about him and even don't make him realise that you are chasing him. Keep yourself close with him.Ask him about his favorite food if he wants to eat make for him.

I am in perimenopausal stage and have irregular periods
During Ramadan, i thought i saw some spotting during the same time when i should expect my periods, but due to its nature of showing or flow i denied accepting that its period
I continued with fasting, shabe qadr amaals etc and after fasting 30 days, i realize now that maybe that was my period.
The following months after Ramadan are like regular periods so no confusion now
Please advice how i can undo what i did ignorantly. As per marjah i should have considered it as hayz and wait my normal time of 10 days to become clean again
But i remember that month there was nothing except for that spotting
Also i did not do any ghusl after seeing that spotting

If a woman treats the blood she saw during certain days as Hayz and did not perform her acts of worship and comes to know later that it was not Hayz, she should give Qadha of the lapsed prayers, and fasts, which she left out. And if she perform acts of worship under the impression that the blood is not Hayz but realises later it was Hayz, then the fasts kept in those days will be void and therefore she should give Qadha of those fasts.

When the period of temporary marriage is over nd the couple wishes to renew it, whether the nikah has to be recited again

Is it allowed for a married women to go beauty parlour to beautify herself,like trimming eyebrows,waxing etc

woman is not a problem as long as she is not showing it to any non Mahram men. As for as going to beauty parlour concern if there is no chances of immodestly their and the parlour has no men then she can go their.

can we apply mehendi on hands by hindu?

yes there is no problem

can we pray namaz when tht mehendi dries …. if wudhu performed before applying it.

If during applying Hena she has not touched the Hena itself with her bare hands then you can pray Namaz while having Hena on your hands if you have done wudhu before applying it.

How can a women recite namaz in pregnency if she cant bend in ruku nor can do sajda bcoz of back pain n stomach pain …..?

Hamal / Pregnancy is not an illness itself but a condition that can cause discomfort and trigger illness.

if carrying a baby and finds it difficult to qiyaam from sujuwd (or sit, stand or bend in anyway) then I am sure it is better she prays however she feels able rather than cause herself harm or worse miss the salaah itself. Islam is all about sense.
Maybe she can sit and pray and have the turbah/sajdagah elevated to her needs. Or use a piece of furniture to help her qiyaam/stand and juluws/sit.

Regarding Barrier to wudhu. prior to today, I understood that applying make up specifically mascara on eyelashes, if it is not waterproof it is ok to do wudhu in. So when I wore mascara and did wudhu, the mascara would kind of wash off with wudhu but some of it stayed. So now I am studying Islamic Law and I learned NO Barrier is allowed for wudhu. The teacher just said if u discover there is a barrier after wudhu, then salah is batil. my question now must I do redo for all of these years I have been doing prayer?

if u were unaware of ruling then u have not to do qadha of your namaz but now after knowing u have to remove all types of makeup before wudhu and ghusl

I have a question regarding Haiz. I have recently started spotting 3 to 4 days before my due date. It is not flowing blood but brown spots ir light pink which come when going to the toilet. Sometimes only once a day. Should I consider myself paak? Also after proper periods start the spotting continues after 7 days, sometimes till 11days. Please tell me the ruling if I can pray.

You follow the rules of istihaza.
400. In the case of little istihaza the a woman should perform separate Wudhu for every prayer and should, as a recommended precaution, wash or change the pad. And if some blood is found on the outer part of her private parts she should make it Pak with water.

401. In the case of Mutawassita, it is an obligatory precaution for a woman to make one Ghusl everyday for her daily prayers, and she should act accordingly to the rules of little Istihaza as explained in the foregoing rule. If the state of Istihaza began before or just at the time of Fajr prayers, she should do Ghusl before offering Fajr prayers. If she does not do Ghusl intentionally or forgetfully, she should do Ghusl before Zuhr and Asr prayers. And if she misses even that, then she should do Ghusl before praying Maghrib and Isha. This she would do regardless of whether bleeding continues or stops.

402. In the case of excessive bleeding the woman should change, as an obligatory precaution, the cotton or pad tied to her private parts or make it Pak with water. It is also necessary that she should do one Ghusl for Fajr prayers, one for Zuhr and Asr prayers and once again for Maghrib and Isha prayers. She should offer Asr prayers immediately after Zuhr prayers and if she allowed any lapse of time between them, she should do Ghusl again for Asr prayers. Similarly if she keeps any time gap between Maghrib and Isha prayers, she should do Ghusl again for Isha prayers.
All these rules apply when bleeding is so excessive that it continues soiling the pad etc. But if it takes longer to soil the cotton or pad, and a woman has enough time to pray one or more Namaz in between, then, as per obligatory precaution, she would change the pad or wash it to make Pak and then do Ghusl only when the cloth covering the pad or cotton is fully soaked. For example, if a woman praying Namaz of Zuhr finds out that the cloth is fully soaked again before the prayers of Asr, she would do Ghusl for Asr prayers. And if she finds that the flow of blood is slow enough to allow two or more prayers to be offered before the cotton or cloth is totally soiled with blood, there will be no need for Ghusl before the ensuing prayer. For example, if she finds that there is enough time to offer even Maghrib and Isha prayers, before the cloth is fully soaked, she would pray Maghrib and Isha without Ghusl. In every case, the Ghusl in excessive Istihaza does not require Wudhu after it.

I needed some advise on stopping breastfeeding, my daughter is 22 months and there are another 5-6 weeks before her Islamic 2 year birthday and I will have to stop breastfeeding her then. I don't know what to do or how to stop. Some people have advised applying something like Mustard on the breast, but I was not sure if that was a good idea or not. Your advise will be much appreciated. Jazakallah

There are many recommended methods of weaning, this manual only mentions a few that have been have been mentioned in Islamic sources and by the Ahlul Bayt (as):

1. Do not use harshness with the child, and stay away from techniques like rubbing spices on the breast, etc.

2. When a child insists on breastfeeding, do not chase him/her away from you.

3. With attention to the fact that breastfeeding is not only a source of food but a source of closeness and comfort for the child as well, it is important that along with adequate food replacements, adequate love and quality time with the child are provided as well.

4. Choosing a good time and place for the beginning and end of all acts, especially those with importance and value, is one of the techniques of the scholars of Islam. Therefore, it is only appropriate that for the weaning of a child from such an important act as breastfeeding, a good place and time is chosen, and acted upon by taking into account the readiness of the child and presentation of a good opportunity.

5. Where possible, the best place for weaning is the ĥarām (shrine) of the Ma°ŝūmīn (as) or Imāmzade (sons or daughters of the Imāms).

6. The recommendation of a scholar is as follows:

In the last months of breastfeeding when the decision has been made to slowly wean the child, do Wuďū and enter the ĥarām in a ritually clean state. Once you have reached the ďarīh (noble grave), recite the relevant ziyārat and ask for tawassul (Divine Intercession) of the noble person. Then, take a peeled sweet pomegranate and sit facing the Qibla.

While reciting Surat Yāsīn, feed the child from both breasts until the milk is finished, and blow on the pomegranate from time to time. At the end of the recitation, send the reward of the recitation to the soul of 6-month old °Alī Asghar and his mother. Then pray to Allāh (SwT) to accept the period of breastfeeding by his generosity, and to give meaningful sustenance to your children with the end of breastfeeding. Then feed the child the whole pomegranate (or the juice of it).

NOTE: The sweetness of the pomegranate has been emphasized in particular. Also in general, eating pomegranate is very useful, especially on Fridays, and has been linked to increased relaxation, the removal of agitation and worries.

NOTE: If going to the ĥarām is not possible for geographical or other reasons, it is possible to make the intention of visiting the shrine and performing all the recommended acts at home.

Plesse could you tell me the recommended minimum and maximum period for breastfeeding a baby girl. Is it different for boys?

2499. It is recommended, if possible, that a child is suckled for full 21 months. And it is not preferred that it be suckled for more than two years.

Salaams. I wanted to ask, what is the period of breastfeeding for a boy and a girl? Is both 24 months or there is a difference? Thanks

For both 24 months there is no difference.

If a girl has white discharge will it be considered paak or does she have to follow rules of istehaza

salam white discharge is a pak

Is it allowed to have sexual intercourse during excessive istehaza? What are the other things haraam and makruh.

salam if a woman who is in the state of excessive or medium istihaza wishes to recite before the time of prayers a verse of the Quran which contains an obligatory Sarah or to enter a masjid she should on the basis of recomended precaution do ghusl . and the same rule applies if her husband wishes to have sexual intercourse with her

after my bleeding has stopped for about 12-15 days after a month of childbirth it has started again but not a much heavy flow. I see blood about few drops one day and another day it stops and again after one or two days i find the blood drops again . I don’t understand if I’m supposed to offer namaz in this case .. or is it haydh. If I see for that day I'm I supposed to stop namaz??
Can you please solve my query.

525. If a woman, with a fixed habit of Hayz sees blood continuously for a month or more after giving birth to a child, the blood seen for the days equal to her Hayz habit will be Nifas, and the blood seen after that for ten days will be Istihaza, even if it coincides with the dates of her monthly Hayz. For example, there is a woman whose fixed Hayz habit is from 20th to 27th of every month. She gives birth on the 10th of a given month, and she continues to see blood for a month or more; her Nifas will be seven days, equal to her Hayz days, and will be from 10th to 17th of that month; now, the blood which she continues to see from the 17th onwards for ten days will be Istihaza, even though it falls in her days of Hayz habit. After the lapse of 10 days, if bleeding continues, then it is Hayz if it falls in the days of habit, irrespective of whether it has the signs of Hayz or not. And if bleeding does not occur in the days of Hayz habit, she will wait till the days of her habit, even if it means waiting for a month or more and even if blood has the signs of Hayz. And if she has no fixed habit of commencement time of Hayz, she should make an effort to recognise her Hayz by its signs; and if that is not possible, because the blood seen after Nifas remains of one type for a month or more, then she will adopt the habit prevailing among her relatives to determine the days of Hayz. And, if that also is not possible, then she has an option of fixing her days of Hayz. These details have been dealt with in the discussions about Hayz


I wanted to know if I start bleeding after a month after giving birth will that be counted hayd or is that still the istihaza?? If it is istihaza should I continue with the rules or should bath everyday for namaz if the bleeding is more.. or discontinue the namaz if it is Hayd?
I would also like to ask about offering fasts during breastfeeding during the month of Ramadan. Is it permissible to offer fasting?

if after a month you srart bleeding then u consider it as haidh but if it continues more than 10 days then you follow rules of istihaza. If the woman is not affected by fasting, and fasting is not too difficult for her, and she does not fear for her child, then she is obliged to fast, and it is not permissible for her not to fast. so u have to decide that your child should not be effected by fasting

I want to know about offering namaz in iztihaza..I see slight blood atleast twice or thrice a day.. Is it possible for me to offer namaz with wadhu or ghusl is must?

if it is slight blood then before namaz change your pad and wash your private part and wudhu

I recently gave birth, my baby is one week old. I would like to know about wadhu rules for breastfeeding, about what all makes wadhu void during feeding baby. As this is Nifas stage I do bleed during feeding and other reasons that makes wadhu void takes place. Please help me know details about rules on wadhu during this stage.

1.Any release from ones private parts (urine, sexual emission, wet dream release, menses blood for women, 2.stool, wind, etc.)
3.Deep sleep
4.sexual intercourse
5. fainting

but if in your period you feed your baby with wudhu it is better inshallah u will get thawab and it will impact on your baby.

Can istihadha occur before the 10th day of period? During the last days of my period the blood have the characteristics of istihadha, but it occurs after the 3rd day and before the 10th day.

Should it be treated as istihadha or haydh because it lasts less than 10 days?

istihaza is less than 3 days and more than 10 days

If I'm not sure whether I entered the state of janaba while I was sleeping, do I have to make ghusl? I'm a woman and it's difficult for me to know if I'm junub or not because there is no visible discharge like men.

You have not to do ghusl

Is it obligatory for women who are pregnant to fast in Ramadan?
Do you know if fasting is bad for the child?

Fasting is not obligatory on a woman in an advanced stage of pregnancy, for whom fasting is harmful or for the child she carries. For every day, however, she should give one mudd (750 grams) of food to poor. In both the cases, she has to give qadha for the fasts which are left out.
Also, if a woman who is not in an advanced stage of pregnancy but fasting is harmful or unbearably difficult, fasting is not wajib on her. She must keep the qadha later and there is no kaffara on her.
In both case, if a woman fails to observe the Qadha of the missed fast until next Ramadhan, she must, as an obligatory precaution, give another kaffara because of delaying the Qadha

Usually my period is 7 days and the 8th day I get brown discharge – is that considered hayz or istihaza?

It is hayz

A woman with hair extensions, is her ablution will be accepted before performing salat?

Yes there is no connection of namaz with long hairs.

What is the ruling of hair extensions of women in Islam?

there is no harm if a woman extends her hair. Hairs are in of the means of beautification in woman. As for as hijab concern woman are not allowed to show their hair to a na mahram.

Can a Shia girl have Mutah with Ismaili man? Although they also call them shia and their first kalma (first 3 verses) are also same as ours.

Ismaili are not considered as Muslim according to many Marja they don't even believe in fundamentals of religion Islam.
Neither Nikah (permanent marriage) nor Mutah (temporary marriage) is allowed with them.

What are the rulings of phone sex during Mutah.can they get orgasm/ejaculation by talking/seeing to each other on phone??

there is no problem according islam after muta

Farzand hone ki dua baataye

Supplication for getting a child

Imam as-Sadiq (a.s.) said: If one of you is having delay in getting an issue you must recite:

اَللّٰهُمَّ لَا تَذَرْنِيْ فَرْدًا وَ اَنْتَ خَيْرُ الْوَارِثِيْنَ وَحِيْدًا وَحْشًا فَيَقْصُرُ شُكْرِىْ عَنْ تَفَكُّرِىْ، بَلْ هَبْ لِىْ عَاقِبَةَ صِدْقٍ ذُكُوْرًا وَ اِنَاثًا آنَسُ بِهِمْ فِىْ الْوَحْدَةِ وَ اَسْكُنُ اِلَيْهِمْ مِنَ الْوَحْدَةِ وَ اَشْكُرُكَ عِنْدَ تَمَامِ النِّعْمَةِ، يَا وَهَّابُ يَا عَظِيْمُ فِىْ كُلِّ عَافِيَةٍ شُكْرًا حَتّٰی تُبْلَغَنِيْ مِنْهَا رِضْوَانَكَ فِىْ صِدْقِ الْحَدِيْثِ وَاَدَاءِ الْاَمَانَةِ وَ وَفَاءِ بِالْعَهْدِ.

O Allah do not keep me alone while You are the best of the inheritors. I am alone and terrified due to the loneliness. This worry has reduced my thankfulness to You. Give me true peace in the form of a boy or a girl so that by becoming attached to him or her my terror is removed and through which my solitude ends and that I may be thankful to You for the completion of this bounty. O the Bestower, O Mighty! After that bestow me such Tawfeeq that I am thankful for every peace. So that by this I obtain Your pleasure for my truthfulness, thankfulness and fulfillment of oaths.[1]

Another supplication for getting a child

It is narrated from Abi Abdullah (a.s.): One who desires that his wife become pregnant then he should recite two units (rakats) of Prayer after Friday prayer and in the prayer he should prolong the bowings and prostrations. Then he should recite:

اَللّٰهُمَّ اِنِّيْ اَسْاَلُكَ بِمَا سَاَلَكَ بِهٖ زَكَرِيَّا يَا رَبِّ لَا تَذَرْنِيْ فَرْدًا وَّ اَنْتَ خَيْرُ الْوَارِثِيْنَ اَللّٰهُمَّ هَبْ لِىْ مِنْ لَدُنْكَ ذُرِّيَّةً طَيِّبَةً اِنَّكَ سَمِيْعُ الدُّعَاءِ، اَللّٰهُمَّ بِاسْمِكَ اسْتَحْلَلْتُهَا وَ فِىْ اَمَانَتِكَ اَخَذْتُهَا فَاِنْ قَضَيْتَ فِىْ رَحْمِهَا وَلَدًا فَاجْعَلْهُ غُلَامًا مُبَارَكًا وَ لَا تَجْعَلْ لِلشَّيْطَانِ فِيْهِ شَرَكًا وَ لَا نَصِيْبًا.

O Allah, indeed I ask You by that through which Zakaria asked You. That is he said: O My Lord! Leave me not alone and Thou art the best of inheritors. O Allah, grant me from Thee good offspring: surely Thou art the Hearer of prayer. O Allah by Your Pure name I have taken this woman as lawful for myself and taken her as a trust from You. If You have decreed to conceive a child in her womb, then make him a blessed boy and do not make Satan a partner or a shareholder in him.[2]

Imam Zainul Abideen (a.s.) advised some of his companions to recite the following for getting a child:

رَبِّ لَا تَذَرْنِيْ فَرْدًا وَّ اَنْتَ خَيْرُ الْوَارِثِيْنَ وَ اجْعَلْ لِیْ مِنْ لَدُنْكَ وَلِيًّا يَرِثُنِيْ فِىْ حَيَاتِىْ وَ يَسْتَغْفِرُ لِىْ بَعْدَ مَوْتِىْ وَ اجْعَلْهُ خَلْقًا سَوِيًّا وَ لَا تَجْعَلْ لِلشَّيْطَانِ فِيْهِ نَصِيْبًا، اَللّٰهُمَّ اِنِّيْ اَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَ اَتُوْبُ اِلَيْكَ اِنَّكَ اَنْتَ الْغَفُوْرُ الرَّحِيْمُ.

O my Lord! Leave me not alone, and Thou art the best of inheritors. And make me from You a successor who would inherit me in my life and seek forgiveness for me after my death. And make him a goodly creation and do not make Satan have a share in him. O Allah, indeed I seek Your forgiveness and turn towards You. Indeed You are the Forgiving, the Merciful.[3]

It is narrated from Abi Abdullah (a.s.) that he said: A man came to him and said: O son of Allah’s messenger, I have eight daughters one after another but no son. So please pray to Allah, the Exalted and the Mighty, that He bestows me a son.

As-Sadiq (a.s.) said: Before you have physical relations with your wife put your right hand on the right of her navel and read the Surah “Inna Anzalnahu fee Lailatul Qadr” (Surah Qadr) seven times. Then have sexual intimacy with your wife; and you would obtain pleasing results. (She would become pregnant) When the pregnancy becomes apparent, when it is night put your right hand on the right side of the navel and recite Surah Qadr seven times.

The man said: I did thus and I got seven boys one after other and others also did it similarly and they were also bestowed male children.[4]

From Tibbul Aaimma from Sulaiman Al-Jawzi from Shaykh Madayani from Zurarah from Abi Ja’far (a.s.) that he said: I was in the group of Hisham bin Abdul Malik and I was issueless till I was suffocating, till the time he had a servant and a lot of wealth but no children. So we came to Abu Ja’far (a.s.) who said: Has Hisham sent you to me? Let me teach you a supplication so that you get a child.

He said: Yes, then he went to Hisham and his need was fulfilled. When he became free, the servant said to him: May I be sacrificed for you, the supplication that you have said, would you teach it to me?

He said: Yes, so recite everyday in the morning and at night: Subh’aan Allaah (Glory be to Allah) 70 times and seek Allah’s forgiveness ten times, and praise Him 9 times and end it the tenth time with seeking forgiveness, according to the words of Allah:

فَقُلْتُ اسْتَغْفِرُوْا رَبَّكُمْ

Janabat ki halat mein agr (periods ) ho jaye . To phle ghusal konsa hoga .. or kya hum dono ghusal ek saath krsktey hain?? Please detail btaaein..

s/a jab app ghusl hadith karein same time make niyyat of janabat. one ghusl is enough but niyyat should be both haidh and janabat

While making wuzu should one splash water several times on its face and then do the masa? or one should directly take a handful of water and then do masa?

for masa you have not to take water from outside . you have to do masa with same water which is remaining after washing of your hands from elbow until middle finger tip.

How should a women put water on her hand while doing ablution… should it be started from the front side or back side of hand?

salam for women it is mustahab it be started from the front side

Reciting Quran, salwat or namaz for the dead people so that they get the benefit of it will benefit us too? will we also get the reward of reciting it though we aren't reciting it for ourselves but for the dead people

Yes of course there is no doubt Allah will give you equal thawab we have in Quran chapter 55 verse 60 is the reward of goodness aught but goodness.

I first take normal bath with soap and shampoo then do niyat of ghusl and then pour two jugs of water on head then two or three jugs on right should then two or three jugs on left shoulder without using hand..Is it right ?? If not please correct me

First of all you have to wait until brown and yellow discharge goes out completely. and there is no need of check every movement. and if after becoming pak ghusl is not possible do tayamum and pray namaz. when u r doing ghusl jug is not a criteria . important is a this that water should reach all your body parts completely

Well, i am making ghusl everyday as i consider i am in little or medium istehaza
While doing ghusl i fo niyyat of istehaza
Is it correct

if it is little ghusl not needed only wudhu and make yourself pak and change you pad but if it is medium then one ghusl par day and for rest namaz follow the rules of little

I believe I need to verify on my condition with menstrual cycle. So I start on my day as expected with just a sign but no flow. For 2-3 days iam in this condition of nit a runny flow but stain. Is this haeez?
Secondly it showed on 10th day after i did my wajib ghusl to clean from haeez. Do i do ghusl with niyyat of haeez again on 11th day or do niyyat of istehaza.

If bleeding start in your cycle date and it continues more than 3 days then you consider it as hayz but if it is going on more than 10 days so after 10 days you have to pray namaz and follow the rules of istihaza

Sister please advice on the following issue— in western part of world normally we make ghusl in shower. So after cleaning body, i make niyyat of wajib ghusl , and while standing under shower i first wash head and neck while saying niyyat 3 times, then turn my right side of body under shower and repeat the niyyat 3 times and then do the same for left part of body, shoulder to foot.
Is this a wrong method??
I saw a video clip where one moulana says that i have to step out of shower after each part is washed like head to neck is one, right side is 2nd and so on

In ghusl only once you make niyyat before starting is enough no need to repeat 3 times and no need to do niyyat before washing each part just do niyyat once before starting ghusl and washing each part under shower is ok. rule no 367 is saying , while standing under the water jerks each of these parts on one's body with an intention of performing tartibi ghusl,it will not be sufficient. but in your case u r turning your body so it is right way.

If you are in state of haiz (najasath due to periods) can you view the dead body or be present at the funeral and can you pray namaaz e mayyit?

At the time of last movement (ehtizar)it is makrooh to stay but after that it is ok as for as namaz concern one can pray

I live in Sweden and it's normal to use makeup here. My skin doesn't look even, some places look darker than others, like for example under my eyes. Is it okey to use some foundation to just even out the color on my face and hide any irregularities? It will look like I have clearer skin but it won't look like I'm using a lot of makeup. Also it won't look like I'm tired or sick. Here in Sweden it's more common to use makeup than not. So if I don't it will attract more attention that what it would if I used a small amount.

as for as make up concern it is not permissible to have make-up for non mahram in such a way that it could be considered as a Zeenat ( adornment) and this is not allowed.But what people think if you don't do much more make is not a criteria in Islam.Yes if some kinds of make-up is because of its frequent use now considered as a normal thing in a society then one can have such make-up with this intention to protect her skin but not to showoff (May Allah forgiven us).

i am a shia and i want to marry a sunni girl
Is it permissible in islam and if yes then give me some references that i can show it to my family for to convince them for marriage
give me both reference shia as well as sunni books so i could convince both the sides

There is no issue in this concern you may do this marriage. If anyone who believes in Oneness of Allah and believes that Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) his the last Prophet and believes in the hereafter is called Muslim and according to all Fuqha ( shia Jurists ) permanent marriage amongst Muslims are allowed doesn't matter which sect they are following.
Now if you want proof then our Aimmah's (a.s) life is the best example Imam Hasan (a.s) married w/o Jo'da binte Ash'as.Imam Mohammad Taqi al- Jawad (a.s) married with Ummul Fa daughter of Mamoon (Abbaside caliph).
there are many examples in history.
But you can't find any written proof in any book where has written that being a shia a person can't marry with a Sunni girl. Yes if are worry that you and your generation's faith would be affected your with this marriage then better not to do so otherwise there is no issue in doning such marriage.Later it would be your duty to convince your spouse to the faith of Ahlul bayt (a.s) to secure your future generations.
