ANSWER:

It’s his right to see the family he is giving his daughter in.

If a man is not in contact with his own father, most likely he won’t honor anything else in life and such a person can’t be a practicing Muslim when he knows that his father is his middle gate to paradise!!

My parents has been divorced and dont live together and dont have contact with him for a period of time as we fear fitnah. I want to marry a woman and her family and my family is pleased except his father. He wants to contact my father to see how he is. I know by this there will be fitnah again and cause problems. I wanted to know. Is her father acting correctly even if pleased by my imaan ?

My sister is having her wedding next month InshaAllah and she is willing to not cover her head during the function. The event will be completely segregated and we will put up signs and notices prohibiting photography. I would like to know in case someone manages to snap a picture would we be held accountable for it ? What is your recommendation for such an event ?

Just after marriage I lent my husband a big amount of money which he said he would pay back in 2 years but has paid nearly nothing of it back and it has been almost 3 years now. Sometimes I feel really upset at his quiet way of expecting me to be kind (never mentioned that he would not be able to keep his side of the deal nor that he feels bad about it, just silent). What can I do
