Assalamualaikum, I actually searched on google whether eating lobster is halal or haram? I found that hanafi school calls eating lobster haram, I live in India where mostly everyone goes with hanafi way, but I actually wanted to eat a lobster and I said in my mind I don't believe in it but I found out that only hanafi calls eating lobster haram. Will this be shirk as saying something you don't believe in it haram?

I have a muslim husband and me I am not. When he asked me for marriage I told him that I will not make him chidrens because I am much older than him and the nature say it's word. I had before children's with my previous husband. My question is: should I be treated different from the womans who have children's with their husband from the point of view of food, clothes or other rights of muslims wifes? Should I be forced to give 50% of the expenses in the house because I don't have children's?

Are abrogated verses in the Lawh-al-Mahfuz (Stone Tablets)?
The Quran is preserved in the stone tablets near Allah: > Rather it is a glorious Qurʾān, in a preserved tablet.(85:21-22) Abrogation is considered a way in which Allah changes or replaces some of the verses of the Quran: > For any verse that We abrogate or remove from memories, We bring another whi...
The Quran is preserved in the stone tablets near Allah: > Rather it is a glorious Qurʾān, in a preserved tablet.(85:21-22) Abrogation is considered a way in which Allah changes or replaces some of the verses of the Quran: > For any verse that We abrogate or remove from memories, We bring another which is better than it, or similar to it. Do you not know that Allah has power over all things? (2:106) So, the question from this is whether abrogation applies to the stone tablets as well or not. I see three possibilities: - Abrogation was done to the stone tablets as well. (I think this is unlikely because it says "preserved") - Or the abrogated verses are in the stone tablets and were not removed. - Or the abrogated verses were never in the stone tablets in the first place. (this might imply that those verses were somehow less "Quranic" even when they were not abrogated) In this question, I am specifically referring to the verses that were abrogated from recitation, meaning they are not in the current Quran anymore. So, did any of the scholars discuss this topic, and what were their conclusions regarding this?

If a woman in Jannah ever disagrees with and/or has an argument with her husband, will Allah remove that woman from Jannah?
I am wondering if the Quran has anything to say about women having free will in Jannah, and if they do have free will, would a woman be allowed to disagree with or have an argument with her husband at any point throughout eternity? Or, would such a thing be considered sinful and/or unforgivable and...
I am wondering if the Quran has anything to say about women having free will in Jannah, and if they do have free will, would a woman be allowed to disagree with or have an argument with her husband at any point throughout eternity? Or, would such a thing be considered sinful and/or unforgivable and would Allah likely remove that woman from Jannah?

Can ordinary muslims get wahy?
I came across the text below: *In short, this is direct knowledge from Allah.

Ilham (inspiration) from Allah is accompanied by sak...
I came across the text below: *In short, this is direct knowledge from Allah. However, there is a distinction between a prophet and a saint (wali), in that a prophet, receives (wahy) revelation from Allah, accompanied by a ruh (spirit) from Allah. Ilham (inspiration) from Allah is accompanied by sakina (tranquillity) from Allah. The difference being, Wahy (revelation) is always clear and correct, while Ilham (inspiration) may be fractured (unclear) and incomplete (especially in the beginning), which is why Shaykh Abu Hasan Ash Shadhili said, “If your spiritual unveilings contradict the Book and the Sunna, act upon the book and the sunna and leave off your unveiling and say to yourself, ‘Allah guaranteed infallibility in the Book and the Sunna and has not guaranteed that in spiritual unveiling and inspiration.’* My questions regarding the above text are: 1. Is the wahy (revelation) mentioned above specifically being discussed in the context of prophets and, therefore, the Quran's revelation? 2. Can and do ordinary human beings get wahy (revelation) from Allah? If so, can normal Muslims get wahy (revelation) for something in their life or the unseen etc? 3. Or is Wahy (revelation) a word that is purely used to describe the revelation that prophets used to receive and therefore is in no way, related to the ordinary individual.

I bursted a pimple on my thigh and rubbed on that pus and blood till the blood and pus were not visible. Then wore the pant and undergarments. Do my clothes and pants become najis of small amount of left over blood and pus if it sticks to the clothes? And if I burst a pimple and blood and pus comes out of the pimple, does it invalidate my wudu?

Can someone be an Athari Hanafi?
There are four classical schools of thought about fiqh (Hanafi, Hanbali, Shafii, Maliki). Then there are also three Sunni schools of thought about some Aqeedah issues (Athari/Hanbali, Ashari, Maturidi). Hanafis are generally Maturidi.

There are four classical schools of thought about fiqh (Hanafi, Hanbali, Shafii, Maliki). Then there are also three Sunni schools of thought about some Aqeedah issues (Athari/Hanbali, Ashari, Maturidi). Hanafis are generally Maturidi. I sometimes come across some Muslims, who are of the opinion, that one should not be Hanafi and Athari at the same time. Can a practicing Hanafi adhere to the Athari school of thought? Or is the Maturidi school of thought and Hanafi school of thought so much interconnected, that it is difficult to have a different understanding? For example Shaikh Akram Nadwi and Abu‘l Izz are Athari Hanafis, but they are criticised by many Hanafis. I know these are advanced topics, which shouldn’t be discussed deeply by layman, but this question has a big impact on the choice of books I read about my religion.

Is swearing an oath saying "if I do such and such, I will become a kafir" valid?
I was alone and then I got a thought that if I do this sin (masturbation) then that means I don't believe in Allah and then I don't know why I just gave in to the temptation and started masturbating.

My question relates to this verse: > And the Horn will be blown, and whoever is in the heavens and whoever is on the earth will fall dead except whom Allah wills. Then it will be blown again, and at once they will be standing, looking on. -- Qur'an 39:68 I've read that the horn (or "trumpet") will be blown by the angel Israfil ; Wikipedia (linking to Encyclopedia Britannica ) writes: > Israfil will blow the trumpet from a holy rock in Jerusalem to announce the Day of Resurrection. The trumpet is constantly poised at his lips, ready to be blown when God so orders. People live all over the world, so I'm wondering how people would hear this trumpet (if they do). Maybe it's incredibly loud that the entire world would hear it, but a literal point-source sound that loud would have major physical ramifications. **Question**: Can the whole world hear Israfil's trumpet?

Is making weird faces to make a friend laugh permissible?
Is making weird faces to make a friend (of same gender) laugh allowed in Islam? I just wanted to know about it because it seems to me that it may be disliked. But I wanted to know the Islamic perspective (of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama'ah) on it rather than my assumption.
