I am getting married this summer InshaAllah and I wanted to ask what the stance is on contraception. I have heard conflicting advice on whether it is permissible and the circumstances around this. My intention with contraception at the start of my marriage would be to learn my husband before children get involved and to stop using it swiftly after a few months. Is this ok?

In our country, medical & car insurance is mandatory. A lot of Muslim brothers say that we take these policies because we have to obey the law; but at the same time, if a need arises, it’s best not to use any benefit from these policies. Can you pls explain whether it’s best not to use them? Also some points which I can convey to them as well.

I went for a trip with my friends in India. We visited a historical temple over there. There was a long queue, and i was pushed inside. I reached the inner chamber and my friend told me to wave my hand over a lighted candle and touch my chest. This was their act of worship. All this happened in a split sec. and I didn’t even think. I just did it to show my respects. How should I perform tawbah?

You have wronged yourself greatly and this is an act of shirk! You must repent to Allah and show sincere and deep remorse. You must ask Allah for forgiveness and never do such a thing in the future. You must cut ties with such friends and only have Muslim friends.
