Dua to get foreskin / reverting circumcision

Assalamu Alaikum, I want to get my foreskin back and revert circumcision, I know it is a sunnah but it is not mandatory in Islam, and in todays world it is easy to access hygiene, so it was nonsense that it was cut off me. I have been praying for nearly one month but still no results. I don't want to rush it but I feel like my prayers are not being answered but I started doing salahs also, I know Allah is hearing me and I promised him to clean it properly and not using it for haram things. (Please note that so called "foreskin restoration" only causes more harm and does not help in anyways getting the real foreskin) It might sound impossible but nothing is impossible for Allah Is there any Duas that can help me in this specific thing or any Duas to speed up acceptance?

How can a Muslim woman achieve a balance between hijab and expressing her femininity?
Women in Islam are encouraged to embrace their femininity, e.g.: > Islam treats women well, determines how their relationship with men should be and establishes its systems, directives and rulings.

Women in Islam are encouraged to embrace their femininity, e.g.: > Islam treats women well, determines how their relationship with men should be and establishes its systems, directives and rulings. It guards the woman’s femininity and acknowledges its implications. Thus, it neither suppresses it nor eradicates it. -- IslamWeb I'm puzzled how a woman can simultaneously embrace her femininity while simultaneously observing hijab (as per Qur'an 24:31 ). My experience as a new hijabi muhtajiba is that covering tends to hide my femininity. I'm required to hide my "lady bits" and wear clothes where my gender is less visible. Observing hijab seems to obstruct embracing femininity. Moreover, the "better" one's hijab is, the more unfeminine one appears; at one end of the spectrum, we can't even tell if someone wearing a burqa is actually a woman. **Question**: How can a Muslim woman achieve a balance between hijab and expressing her femininity? ---- In *Becoming Muslim*, by Anna Mansson McGinty, in the chapter "The Veil and Alternative Femininities" we have: > Veiling is strongly linked to the formation of a female Muslim identity, and to ideas about gender relations and modesty. McGinty describes how the veil is part of the "new femininities" of convert women, and referring to a particular Muslim convert "Fatimah" (pseudonym), she describes a compromise Fatimah has reached: > At the time of the conversion, and also when marrying, Fatimah said that **she would never wear “the scarf,”** as she frequently refers it to. **Just like all of the other women, she experienced it as one of the most difficult things to adjust to being a Muslim.** Today she does cover, but as she puts it herself, **her way of covering is somewhat of an “American adoption, kind of a compromise because it is not quite as covered and yet you are still covered.”** The scarf, tied in the back, covers her hair but not the chin and neck. This is what she is most comfortable with.

What has been said about innocent babies among people who recieved Allah's punishment?
Many cities and nations have recieved Allah's punishment for their wrongdoings. However, statistically speaking, a nation has newborn babies almost in any time. What has been said about those babies? Because apparently newborns are innocent.

How Aql is different from Qiyas?
In Usool-al-Fiqh Shia uses Aql or intellect as a source of legislation as mentioned in this answer- - [http://islam.stackexchange.com][1] And the Sunni uses Qiyas or analogy in Fiqh. In my understanding, both are related with reasoning. How do they differ? [1]: https://islam.stackexchange.com/a/345/...

Is asking for dua the same as asking for ruqia?
So we know from a hadith that 70000 Muslim people will enter heaven without being brought to account if they don't ask for **Ruqia** (not the only requirement), I wanted to know if __asking for dua from another person__ is the same in this case. For example asking people to pray for you to get cured...

A companion prayed 2 units **AFTER** fajr jamaat before sunrise. this is reported by Abu Dawood, where it says, “and the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) remained silent.” And ‘Ata’ ibn Abi Rabaah narrated that a man of the Ansaar said: “He did not say anything to him.” Al-‘Iraaqi said: its isnaad is hasan. And a version narrated by Ibn Abi Shaybah says: “He did not tell him to do that or tell him not to do it.” And a version narrated by Ibn Hibbaan says: “he did not denounce him.” The reports explain one another. This silence is taken as affirmation in uloom ul hadith. The smile of prophet is also taken as affirmation. This information is based on Allahs fingers text given by a jewish woman to aisha and the prophet smiled. Based on above information i Searched in a internet search engine and failed to find answers. In a discussion, 2 people were discussing buraq and flying horses. And it was metioned sulayman had flying horses and buraq is neither a horse nor does it fly. Then hadith of prophet laughing such that his molar were visible when aisha said sulayman had flying horses was mentioned. A third person who read the above hadith said laughing negates flying horses of sulayman. Hence the question arose which actions of prophet say his affirmation?

Will it be counted as a sin if it happened because of someone else?
I wanted to know will a person commit any sin because of of someone else be counted as one? I actually got false information from someone about doing a particular act which was sin but he told it wasn't, so will that mean I also commited a sin or only that person?

the most widely used definition for **intellectual property** is, *Intellectual property (IP) refers to creations of the mind, such as inventions; literary and artistic works; designs; and symbols, names and images used in commerce.* i understand that anything created for the betterment of the muslim ummah and to please Allah (S.W) is allowed and not haram, generally speaking. my question is, **is there any evidence from the quran and authentic sunnah to support *specifically* intellectual property?**. though this concept is coined much later, i would like to know if there are evidences from the time of the prophet PBUH. in my layman's effort, i have come across some but i would refrain from mentioning them here because i doubt the authenticity of those and also to provide a more wider and fresh angle, for the persons providing answers.

I've seen many scholars particularly of the Ashari creed opposing this while a few scholars such as Al Tabari, Ibn Taymiyya, Ibn Al Qayyim and later Muhammad Ibn Abd Al Wahhab saying that tawhid is divided into 3 categories: Tawheed al-Ruboobiyyah (Oneness of Divine Lordship), Tawheed al-Uloohiyyah (Oneness of Divinity) and Tawheed al-Asma’ wa’l-Sifaat (Oneness of the Divine Names and Attributes). Which one is the correct view (if possible to answer)?
