Is this dua from an authentic hadith and am I able to recite it. 1484. Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (PBUH) used to supplicate: “Allahumma inni a`udhu bika minal-barasi, wal-jununi, wal-judhami, wa sayyi’il-asqami’ (O Allah! I seek refuge in You from leucoderma, insanity, leprosy and evil diseases).” [Abu Dawud].

But I have a Christian interviewer so I don’t want him to think or rather know that I hate Christianity otherwise he will reject me obviously. So is it okay for me to want him to be ignorant of that fact?

My query is about edible silver/gold foil used on the Indian sweets. Are we Muslims allowed to eat them? My parents are Hindu. On Diwali people gift my family(parents) sweets with that silver foil on top. I read on islamqa that Muslims can accept the veg food on their festival. Correct me if I’m wrong. If silver foil is haram, can I remove it and eat the sweets?

Shaikh, I want to know that is it permissible to marry over video chatting?
