If so can you name what kind of Haram roleplays I'm not allowed to do in Islam? I saw an answer from this website that said “its an AI. it isn't real, its feeings aren't real, but don't let it distract you from allah.” but I'm still not sure. Is there any Haram roleplays?

I am really ashamed asking this, but as a girl growing up boy-girl relationships have always been a no-no. I don't even talk much to guys, unless necessary. Upon encountering romance - TV, movies, books, - I always rolled my eyes because I hated romance, seemed too stupid, dumb to me. Then I read a book where two guys feel you know in love and I thought it was the first time I did not want to continue to see what happened - I though the mm couple was cute. Now I always think they are cute? I am a girl so naturally I dislike lesbians and stuff, but ....ugh. I wish I could be disgusted by them but I am addicted, not wholly, to gay books [Only YA stuff, not any uter haram erotic stuff, ew] . I've vowed never again to seek out a gay book but if I see two gay guys, I still think Awww. Please help!

The following shows two seemingly contradictory ahadith on applying khaluq. >It was narrated that Zaid bin Aslam said: "I saw Ibn 'Umar dyeing his beard yellow with Khaluq and I said: 'O Abu 'Abdur-Rahman, are you dyeing your beard yellow with Khaluq?' He said: 'I saw the Messenger of Allah [SAW] dyeing his beard yellow with it, and there was no other kind of dye that was dearer to him than this. He used to dye all of his clothes with it, even his 'Imamah (turban).'" > >[Sunan an-Nasa'i 5085](https://sunnah.com/nasai:5085) >Narrated Ammar ibn Yasir: >The Prophet (ﷺ) said: The angels do not come near three: the dead body of the unbeliever, one who smears himself with khaluq, and the one who is sexually defiled except that he performs ablution. > >[Sunan Abi Dawud 4180](https://sunnah.com/abudawud:4180) Is one of them inauthentic? Or could this be an instance of abrogation?

I want to write a sort of autobiography describing my life as a revert to Islam and the struggles I’ve had growing up etc.,but I know that it is haram to expose my sins or the sins of others so I’m thinking if I were to use aliases for everyone I include in the book and for myself and publish it anonymously as well as use a different name and probably not to tell anyone that it was me who wrote it would this be permissible and was also thinking if I was to publish it could I label it as fiction or non-fiction due to using alias’s or label it as “based on real events” and admit that its a true story but with different names. Sorry if this question is really long I just wanna make sure. And should I get people's permission to write about them even if I don’t use their name.

Assalamu Alaykum Warahmatu Lah Ta'ala wa barakatuhu. I work as a freelancer in app development, and I want to know the ruling on creating an app for movies that allows users to see new movies from around the world. For example, users can see images, descriptions, and some trailers of the movies, but they cannot watch the movies in this app, only summaries. The app uses a library that contains all the movies(https://www.themoviedb.org/) , and by using this library, I bring all the movies to my app. I have copyright permission from the website that provides this library to use those movies in my apps. However, as I mentioned, users cannot watch movies except trailers and those trailers are silent by default. Also, I apply a blurry filter to the images so they are not displayed clearly unless the user chooses to disable this feature from the app settings. Additionally, I'm using a filter that removes any movie that may contain inappropriate images or similar content about 95%. So, what is the Islamic religious ruling on creating an app that contains movie summaries?

If a known non Muslim in our city come to Masjid, are Muslims required to ask whether he converted to Islam or not?
Or can they just ignore him as long as he is doing what Muslims are doing in Masjid ? What if he do not mind responding to question whether he converted or not? Can Muslims allow him to pray ?

Jubayr Al-Kufi (45-95): ibn Abbas read this letter {In a muddy spring} and he said: Black mud that the sun sets in. This basically says that the sun literally sets in the black mud if this is true then it would be unscientific was Ibn Abbas the best of all tafseer and interpretation of the Quran.

Salam aleykum, I hope you are well. I had my religious marriage (after a civil marriage) with the imam of a mosque. My guardian and my two Muslim witnesses were there. The imam asked us if we had agreed on the dowry; we didn't know how to answer because my husband and I hadn't set an amount, but the imam continued with the ceremony. The day before the wedding my husband asked me how much I wanted as a dowry, I told him we'd see on the day of the wedding but we didn't. Personally, I'm planning to ask for a dowry in the future. Personally, I intend to ask for a simple dowry (according to his means) but my husband doesn't know (we haven't discussed it). My question: Is the marriage valid even if we had no idea of the amount of the dowry while the imam was marrying us? WE will fix ( me and my husband) the amount later. Thank you for your help. Salam aleykum

Some questions about the hadith of Umm Zara'!
Both al-Bukhari (in the Book of Wedlock, Marriage (Nikaah) / [Chapter: To treat the family in a polite and kind manner][1]) and Muslim (in The Book of the Merits of the Companions / [Chapter: The Hadith Of Umm Zar][2]) have quoted this long hadith -here just a shortened version-: > 'A'isha reported...
Both al-Bukhari (in the Book of Wedlock, Marriage (Nikaah) / Chapter: To treat the family in a polite and kind manner ) and Muslim (in The Book of the Merits of the Companions / Chapter: The Hadith Of Umm Zar ) have quoted this long hadith -here just a shortened version-: > 'A'isha reported that (one day) there sat together eleven women making an explicit promise amongst themselves that they would conceal nothing about their spouses. **The first one said**: My husband is a sort of the meat of a lean camel placed at the top of a hill ...**The second one said**: My husband (is so bad) that I am afraid I would not be able to describe ... . **The third one said**: My husband is a long-statured fellow (i. e. he lacks intelligence). .... **The fourth one said**: My husband is like the night of Tihama .... **The fifth one said**: My husband is (like) a leopard as he enters the house .... **The sixth one said**: So far as my husband is concerned, he eats so much that nothing is left back... . **The seventh one said**: My husband is heavy in spirit, having no brightness in him ... . **The eighth one said**: My husband is as sweet as the sweet-smelling plant .... **The ninth one said**: My husband is the master of a lofty building ... . **The tenth one said**: My husband is Malik .... **The eleventh one said**: My husband is Abu Zara'. How fine Abu Zara' is! He has suspended in my ears heavy ornaments and ... that my sinews and bones are covered with fat. So he made me happy. He found me among the shepherds living in the side of the mountain, and he made me the owner of the horses, camels and lands and heaps of grain and he finds no fault with me. ... . The mother of Abu Zara', how fine is the mother of Abu Zara'! Her bundles are heavily packed ... and the house quite spacious. So far as the son of Abu Zara' is concerned, his bed is as soft as a green palm-stick drawn forth from its bark .... So far as the daughter of Abu Zara' is concerned ... . As for the slave-girl of Abu Zara', how fine is she; .... One day Abu Zara' went out (of his house) when the milk was churned in the vessels, that he met a woman, having two children like leopards playing with her pomegranates under her vest. He divorced me (Umm Zara') and married that woman (whom Abu Zara') met on the way. I (Umm Zara') later on married another person ... he bestowed upon me many gifts ... and said: Umm Zara', make use of everything and send forth to your parents (but the fact) is that even if I combine all the gifts that he bestowed upon me, they stand no comparison to the least gift of Abu Zara'. 'A'isha reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to me: I am for you as Abu Zara' was for Umm Zara'. Now I have a few questions about this hadith: - The hadith seems like a story told by 'Aisha and the only real hadith-related words is the comment of our Prophet () "I am for you as Abu Zara' was for Umm Zara'", is this correct? Maybe one of the arguments to explain this is the language used which seems a bit more complex than in most ahadith. - Is there any explanation or comment, why the hadith was arranged by al-Bukhari in a chapter about marriage and manners between spouses while Muslim arranged it in a chapter about the virtuous of the sahabah? - What is the quintessence of this hadith? - Why is it known as hadith Umm Zar'a while we don't even know the name of the 11th woman?

Asslamualikum! I was a finance student back 2 years ago. You know that doing job in a bank is haram as it involves Interest so due to this reason my aim was to do a job in a company as they aren't indulge in interest. But my father wanted me to do a job in a bank as there was a reference. But I refused from day one due to above mentioned reasons. And got a job in a Cargo company as Data entry specialist. My father become unhappy as so my whole family. Things become more worse when I discover my colleagues having poor and absurd mentality in the company. But still I was happy that I was doing a Halal job. But after 3 months a rider and then my director sales harassed me. Due to which I got Bipolar mental disorder. And I have to be admitted in hospital for 10 days and left job eventually. Now I want to ask you is that was a punishment from Allah not obeying my father as I haven't recovered yet. Whenever I find a new job (after that incident) I got fired after some months. I used to listen that when you avoid haram things and do halal things Allah become happy but I am puzzled on the things happening around me. Please guide me for the sake of Allah I am completely hopeless. Please reply me it would be a great help.

ASO! I wanted to know the actual difference between shia and sunni nikkah procedures. I belong to a sunni family and getting married to a shia boy. We don't have any problems with the witness issue. In sunni's (living in Pakistan) nikkah is preformed in Urdu language which makes sense for me, but through my research, I found out that shia nikkah must be said in Arabic language (either by both girl or boy, or by any molvi/imam). So my question is, if that's the case (shia nikkah has to be in Arabic), is there any authentic hadith or reference in Shia books or in Quran validating this point that **nikkah lines must be said in Arabic?** Why can't we just say the nikkah lines in Urdu, our native language? I'd like to hear from Shia side and their reference from any Shia Imam or from Quran with the source. Thank you!

I've been reading a piece of work that says that accepting the terms of service in most websites is kufr because they say they can bring you to non Muslim (taghut court's) so by pressing I accept on the terms of service you are agreeing to be judged by a taghut. I need someone to actually give me answers from the Qur'an and sunnah and not they're own opinions. Also in it he says if theres a dispute with a Muslim in it a kafir cannot be the one who settles it because it is making them a wali which is kufr then he gives an example In soccer saying if they're is a Kaffir referee a Muslim cannot play because or he will be a kafir but if the ref is Muslim it is permissible. Is this also true??? Iam very anxious about this
