Spending money on parents/brother and sister
Question:
Asalam-O-Alakum,
I want to ask about the issue of spending on parents/brother and sister. Are there any rules/limits defined for spending? I am living abroad, no house in my home country. I just want to understand the right of my parents on my earnings from religious perspective.
Thanks and Jazak Allah.

What prayers can a mother make for their children to become successful in life?

Your question shows your eagerness to raise your children as Muslims who are conscious of Allah and of their responsibilities. All parents ought to work hard to do so, while constantly praying to Allah for His guidance, blessing and assistance.

Husbands request for wifes permission before travelling alone
Question:
If a man is travelling by himself, is he required to seek the permission of his wife before leaving?
Answer:
Islam enjoins husbands to deal with their spouses not whimsically or erratically but in full conformity with standards of kindness, decency and fairness. This has been best summed up in the Quranic imperative: “And deal with them on terms of al-ma’ruf” (Q. 4:19).

Married someone whom parents disapproved of
Question:
I married someone whom my parents disapproved of. Because I was afraid of my father, I did not disclose this to them for 2 months, but then I told them the whole truth and was sorry for not being bold enough to tell them before. My husband is a practicing Muslim with the same ethnicity as me. My father now says he will disown me because of this and has forbidden my mother and sister from meeting me. He says that he does not recognize the marriage and he will not allow any of the children born to this marriage to meet him or my mom. Is this attitude of disowning and abandoning ones child acceptable in Islam? Is there any Qur'anic reference or Hadiths to support your argument?

How to deal with hothead husband
Question:
Please if you can help me I’m quite distressed at the moment. My husband and I married very young, during the first years of marriage we used to have a lot of violent arguments where he would be extremely angry and beat me and tell me he doesn't want me in his life. On one occasion when he was very angry he shouted talaq 3 times, and I said 'u didn’t mean that' and he shouted he did and slammed the door. We found out a few years later, after we started controlling our tempers that this all could constitute a divorce.
