My grandfather passed away about 7 years ago and he was really beloved to all of us. Me and some of my family members had taken a few pictures of him when he was alive and sometimes when we miss him, we share pictures of him with each other on WhatsApp groups etc. I want to ask if there’s any problem in doing so and if this is considered a sin. | Sheikh Assim Al Hakeem

ANSWER:

It is not permissible to keep the pictures of the deceased ones. Delete all his pictures and tear the hard copies.

Is it allowed to kill pests in the house which may harm us? If yes then Are there any specific pests which we are not allowed to kill? Some people say we should not kill spiders… some say we should not kill bed bugs as these insects helped prophet SAW when he was hiding from Quraysh. How authentic is this? Can you pls give hadith references for me to read

Next

We needed money so we took a student loan from an agency. I asked my mother if it was interest based or not, she said it wasn’t. In short; I later found out that it was interest based but at that point it was too late and the money is in my bank now, and everything has been concluded. Is the money haram for me even though I didn’t know? If so, do I return the money back to the agency?
