Sheik, I have heard a hadith stating that whenever a person recites “la ilaaha illa allahu” 70,000 times, then hell fire is forbidden for him? Is that authentic? Is it also true that we recite 70000 times to dedicate them to dead person to save them from hellfire?

This is baseless and not authentic.

In our village people do so many biddah, l am planning to request a teacher who can teach quran with translation and explain the meaning. This teacher has to go by bus in our place. I want to know if I can give her my zakat money so she can teach the ladies and children and in the same time can support her family. The people who will come for study i want to spend my zakat money for their food so they will come to learn the truth about islam. This teacher has studied from Scholar Nighat Hashemi.

Zakat

Zakat can’t be given for such a purpose!

I was hurt and harmed by people. They are no longer in my life but still I feel bad about them. How can I get rid of these thoughts? Should I make duaa for their forgiveness from Allah subhanwathaĺah.

Forgive them and move on. Don’t live in the past or you’ll destroy your future and present.

Can I say that the Muslims in places such as Syria are suffering because they preferred this world more than Allah and his Messenger, and because of that Allah is punishing them now. My reference for this statement is the verse of the Quran 9:24 where Allah says, “qul ʾin kāna ʾābāʾukum wa-ʾabnāʾukum wa-ʾikhwānukum wa-ʾazwājukum wa-ʿashīratukum…[Transliteration]

No, this is wrong and is only said by ignorants! Speaking about Allah without knowledge is a major sin!

There are a lot of hadeeths in it that are not authentic but it is compiled by a great scholar; Ibn Al Qayyem.

if a Muslim person is poor and has no money and is living in the streets, does that mean he only has to fulfill 2 pillars of Islam? Because he cannot fast, he cannot pay zakat and he cannot go to Hadj. He can only pray and believe in Allah. Does a poor Muslim have only 2 pillars of Islam? If he is extremely poor and he lives far away from Mecca. Is 2 pillars acceptable in Islam?

Dear Shiek, actually i feel that Allah swt has blessed with good voice while reading quran. Sometimes during Tahajjud or leading salah i like to hear my own voice since im happy with it, but i dont expect people to praise me for it. In this case will it be considered as sin (Shirk).

Ya Sheikh! My brother wants to have his son’s Aqeeqah in my walimah. He’s going to pay for the sacrifice and I’m going to pay for the rest of the feast. Is it OK to combine both the things together while both of us spending our share of money. (Invitation will be of Walimah only and the feast of Aqeeqah will be served as an additional item).
