While praying I had the urge to laugh, and while trying to hold it, a noise escaped (loud enough for someone else to hear). I’m not sure if this noise was a laugh or if it came from trying to hold in a laugh. I started the prayer again, but I did not do wudu again. Is my prayer and wudu valid?

You did well by praying again. Your wudhu is not affected.

Please tell me if I say anything incorrect. I’m in America. I have enmity, hate and disavowel for every non muslim. What I’m confused about is al wala wal bara and what rights are to be given to the non muslims in regards to this doctrine. Also what about the hadith of pushing them to the edge of the road?Can we smile at a non Muslim? Be kind to them? Is this ever alowed? Or should we be rude?

Religions

Being rude is never part of Islam. The Prophet salla Allahu alaih wa sallam used to treat them well and smile. This has nothing to do with hating their disbelief and not hating them personally. This is something in the heart. We treat them well to show them the beauty of Islam without compromising Islam […]

I watch various of duaat ie zakir naik. He mentioned some scientific errors in the bible with regards to many things. I sometimes relate this to christians. The danger is, that science is being used as a yard stick to judge religion when the truth ie quran is above science. Should we use modern science at all with regards to divinity and knowlegde?

Belief in Divinely-revealed Books
07 Nov

We believe in the Quran and Sunnah. If sciences prove what is mentioned in the Quran, this is fine. But if not, we don’t care, we know the truth from our Lord!

I have a question i am really confused and upset. I want to know is it ok to pray for your wordly desires or one should pray for the sake of Allah only? Sometimes i feel i am being mean i pray 5 times and tahajjud also but only because i want Allah to stay happy with me and accept my prayers and wordly desires .. Should i pray for the sake and love of Allah only?

This is from satan. You can pray for a better life to please Allah and gain the reward in the hereafter. This is inseparable as no one claims to pray only for the sake of Allah without asking Allah for provisions and things he desires  and protection from bad things!
