Is wearing clothes with names a Sin?
Is wearing clothes **with names** a Sin? I have heard that clothing with names is a glorification of non-believers. Does it mean that wearing clothes where there are names such as: jordan, d&g and others is Sin? **What if I can't buy another one yet?**

Why is pork more strictly haram than blood?
Pork (pig meat) is forbidden as many times in the Quran as blood is (2:173, 5:3, 6:145, 16:115). Under that, I'd assume that blood is just as forbidden as pork. However, Muslims are very picky about whether food contains traces of pig DNA or pig hairs (which is not explicitly forbidden in the Quran)...
Pork (pig meat) is forbidden as many times in the Quran as blood is (2:173, 5:3, 6:145, 16:115). Under that, I'd assume that blood is just as forbidden as pork.
However, Muslims are very picky about whether food contains traces of pig DNA or pig hairs (which is not explicitly forbidden in the Quran). They are not as picky with something such as blood, even though quite a lot of blood is commonly found in halal food.
Why is this? Is there a hadith that emphasizes how forbidden pork is? Is there something detailing that blood is allowed in smaller quantities?

Can jinns communicate through dreams?
Assala-mu'Alaikum, last night I saw a dream where my younger brother was taken away from me and I need to make sacrifices to keep him to me.

Assala-mu'Alaikum, last night I saw a dream where my younger brother was taken away from me and I need to make sacrifices to keep him to me.
At first I heard him screaming then I went out and found him drowning in the pond (We live in a city area, there is no pond here). But just the moment I stepped into the pond, my brother was taken in a boat and was sped off to a specific direction. After swimming to that area I found him hanging on a tight place. I somehow took him down from there and was hugging him. Everything was pitch black. Again that boat came and took me and my brother to a area I have never seen before. Empty ground with torches all around. The jinns there talked with me using my parent's face. And it scared me to death.
Anyways they wanted something my brother had, I couldn't make that out. And that's why a jinn threw him into the water and I rushed to save him but couldn't as a force was stopping me. Once I yelled I am gonna give them 10 children instead of my brother I was able to get to him and save him. Then the same boat took us home.
Note: Our house is kinda jinn proof. Imam did a thing where jinns cannot come aroud our house. Its called 'badhai' in our language.
I have sleep paralysis.

As-salamu alaykum, the title says itself but I want to clarify what I mean by this. I wanted to buy myself a drawing tablet and since our friends like to do roleplaying, mostly Dungeons and Dragons roleplay. They drew how their characters looked for that session. So I was thinking about it, but drawing animate beings is haram. And I have been searching on this on the internet and from my view I got mixed results.
Some say its permissible, some say its not, some say its permissible under these circumstances (avoiding to draw the face, eyes, nose etc.). So I came here to ask:
Is digital drawing characters, for the purposes of this roleplay permissible or not?

About Yaajooj and Maajooj ( Arabic: يَأْجُوج وَمَأْجُوج )
I want to know that it's said that [Yaajooj and Maajooj][1] live behind a really tall and strong wall (made by hazrat [zulqurnain][2]). but if it's so then it means that they are cut off from rest of the world and can't be contacted.

So no one is able to tell them about hidayat and Islam.. and they won't be able to accept Islam. Still it's their mistake?
They don't know anything about Islam.. or is there any way for Allah to preach hidayat.
Please clear my mind.

Ibn Hazm on the permissibility of seeing women naked for marriage purposes
It is discussed in the entries like: [When proposing / before agreeing to marry a woman, how much can a man look at her (body)?][1] [What if a husband is displeased with his new wife's body after getting married?][2] [1]: https://islam.stackexchange.com/questions/39529/when-proposing-before-agreeing...
It is discussed in the entries like:
When proposing / before agreeing to marry a woman, how much can a man look at her (body)?
What if a husband is displeased with his new wife's body after getting married?
Could someone give a page number from Al-Muhalla about where Ibn Hazm mentions "suitor can see the entire naked body of the woman for marriage purposes"? I would appreciate a link from Shamela.ws.
As I understand Ibn Hazm uses the hadith
> إذا خطب أحدكم المرأة، فإن استطاع أن ينظر إلى ما يدعوه إلى نكاحها
> فليفعل (If one of you proposes to a woman and is able to look at
> what will encourage him to marry her, let him do so.)
to derive his ruling. Am I correct?

If Allah forgives all sin, why should I do any good deeds?
I am asking this question not from a personal point of view, but more philosophically.

I am asking this question not from a personal point of view, but more philosophically. I often come across Muslims who are openly committing every type of sin, and they justify it by saying, "only god can judge me and god will forgive me."
I know god is the most merciful and forgiving, however, this seems unfair to those muslims who strive to do good and be good in their lives.
I understand that between sins committed against other humans cannot be forgiven by God, and I am not referring to those. I mean sins such as alcohol, zina, shirk, etc.
If all we have to do is repent and god will forgive, does this really mean we can live a life full of all sorts of sins, and repent shortly before death, and all will be forgiven ? What is then the incentive to live piously ?

Namely, I was in a haram relationship and thank God I got out, the girl is also religious, we simply broke up because we are not ready to get married etc. Is there a possibility that I can temporarily contact her once a month.

What are the clear proofs from the Islamic corpus that the crucifixion or the death of Jesus never took place?
In the Quran there seems to be only one verse i.e.4:157, that denies the crucifixion of Jesus. Even in that verse the denial is about what some Jews had claimed.

In the Quran there seems to be only one verse i.e.4:157, that denies the crucifixion of Jesus. Even in that verse the denial is about what some Jews had claimed.
Even though there are hundreds of thousands of hadiths, none seems to deny categorically what the News Testament teaches about Jesus' crucifixion, death and resurrection.
Crucifixion, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ are so central and widespread among various Christian sects early on, including in the seventh century Arabia. Is there any clear evidence that denies the crucifixion, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ in the Islamic texts, both in the Quran and Hadiths?

I do realize this question has been asked before here: https://islam.stackexchange.com/questions/32860/why-does-allah-create-someone-whose-fate-is-hell
Yet I feel I should ask again and maybe in a bit of a different manner as I don't believe the answers on that post were adequate.
I'm wondering from an Islamic perspective, if Allah knew that some people will end up in hell, why go through with the creation anyway? What purpose does that serve for Allah?
Note: Some people seem to be confused and don't understand my question and they think I'm not understanding the purpose of hellfire and that it is to punish people who do wrong, when in fact all I'm asking is about the creation of those who will end up in hellfire. Please don't resort to explanations for why hell was created or why people go to hell, etc. This doesn't answer the question being asked.

Are only the inhabitants of heaven and hell immortal?
I have a question, is it the case that when death is removed in the afterlife, all beings automatically become immortal? Or only the inhabitants of heaven and hell? Or are other beings who are not residents of heaven and hell also immortal?

Is it permitted to pray in state of Janabah, if time will run out in doing ghusl?
I want to ask, If a person wakes up at home from his regular night sleep in a state of Janabah and his condition (after he wakes up) is that: 1) he is not deprived of water at his home. 2) he has not yet taken a bath (in a state of Janabah) 3) He is also has not done the Fajr prayer (Subuh). 4) He w...
I want to ask, If a person wakes up at home from his regular night sleep in a state of Janabah and his condition (after he wakes up) is that:
1) he is not deprived of water at his home.
2) he has not yet taken a bath (in a state of Janabah)
3) He is also has not done the Fajr prayer (Subuh).
4) He wakes up at 5 minutes (or less) before sunrise.
What should he do in this case, should he take a bath first and risk missing / skipping the Subuh prayer by bypassing its time limit (sunrise)? (because taking a bath in a state of Janabah will surely take longer than normal bath, presumably more that 10 minutes)
Or should he just take a regular wudu right after he wakes up and attempt to do the Subuh prayer without taking a bath (praying in a state of Janabah)? Thus making it possible for him to start the Subuh prayer within its time limit.
Which one?
