Asalaamu alaykum sheikh, just wanted to ask if it's permissible for me to go to a toastmasters meet up which is on the 3rd floor of a pub in the board room. No alcohol is served there but I still have to walk through the pub and up two stairs to get there. JazakAllah Khair for your work :)

Wa alaikum assalam,
It's prohibited for Muslims to give a chance to other people to think ill of them. Hence, acts like walking into a bar or sitting at a table where others are being served alcohol are prohibited even if the person does not do something prohibited.
If I may suggest, use the situation to your da'wah advantage, especially if you're a qualified speaker. Send them an email explaining why you cannot attend because of the location, and suggest a better location in future events. If enough people like you do that, employers and organizations will stop using bars as meeting places.

Salam Sheikh, I was wondering if you know any places that teach basic Islam to children with mental difficulties. An autistic child just got kicked out of the local madrasah b/c the mullas think he's possessed by jinns... So I want to try to find an alternative for him (if his circumstances allow)

الراجح عند أهل العلم طبعا يعني ما رجحه الدليل القرآن والسنة يعني معرفة الصحيح في المسألة وبارك الله فيكم

الدليل لا يرجح بنفسه يا اخي الغالي،
والبعض يظن أن الأمر ما هو إلا أن تلقي حفنة من الأدلة في طبق وتصب عليه الحليب فيطفو لك الراجح؟
لا يا أخي، ما ترجح عند امير المؤمنين عمر بن الخطاب هو الراجح عنده هو، وهو غير ما ترجح عند ام المؤمنين عائشة وهو الراجح عندها هي، وما كان الراجح عند مالك ليس بالضرورة الراجح عند الشافعي.
فإذا قيل لك القول الراجح كذا تقول مباشرة عند من؟ فإن قال السائل عندي او عند فلان، او هكذا الدليل يقول فهل المتكلم هو أكثر أهلية للترجيح من ابن تيمية أو النووي أو الشاطبي أو ابن عابدين؟
فإن أقر أنه صعلوك مقابل علمهم، فهل عنده رد علمي متين يسند وصفه لاجتهاد كل واحد منهم بأنه مرجوح؟
هناك أربعون دليلا في مسألة واحدة من القران والسنة - قولا وفعلا وإقرارا - والاجماع وقول أفراد الصحابة وعمل آحادهم وعادة أهل المدينة؛ وهذه الأدلة إما أن يكون ثبوتها قطعي كالمتواتر او ظني كالشاذ، وإما أن يكون مدلولها عام أو خاص، مطلق أو مقيد، وفي القران والسنة ناسخ ومنسوخ.
ثم بعد ذلك أدلة عامة أخرى كالقياس والاستصحاب والاستحسان والمصالح المرسلة والعقل ومخالفة النفس
هذا الذي يقول لك في المسألة قول راجح واحد، سلم عليه وامض في سبيلك. والله المستعان.

AsalamuAlaykum Sheikh. I broke an oath and when fasting when one of the three days to make up for that oath I broke my fast as I am in the middle of exam period and it was hard for me. Can I wait until after the exam period/Ramadan to fast instead?

You shouldn't. Make it up now, and make up the day you broke as well.

What should I do if I wake up while the sun is rising? Usually I go back to sleep since the time is up and it's makrooh but I feel very bad afterwards for doing that.

It's obligatory to pray Fajr immediately in this case, even if it's prohibited to pray the sunnah and other voluntary prayers at that time.

Al salamo 3lykom sheikh, can you tell me a nice simple book for اسماء الله الحسنى or a video series

Nice? This is your filter to learn about your Lord?
Allahu almusta'aan.

Assalamualykum shaykh, I am repeating my question because you may have not seen it the first time. Once I am in a state of ihram for umrah, do I need make an intention for each rite (mansak)or my intention for ihram will suffice? I am a bit confused about this particular issue.

The majority are upon that the niyyah (intention) of the hajj (pilgrimage) include everything within. Sheikh shanqeeti (r) said: just like the niyya of salaat (prayer) includes everything within.
Standing on arafa on the day of arafa without niyya (e.g. forgetfully or unknowingly) is sufficient to fulfill that pillar, according to the consensus of all scholars.

As a Muslim woman, I am afraid there might be a thin line between speaking normally and speaking with a slightly higher pitch, it almost comes naturally when I'm making a point, excited about something, nervous, etc. But sometimes I feel that my voice affects men in ways that make me uncomfortable.

And I'm sure many men have been affected, and would still be affected, even if you wore a niqab and spoke with a bass voice.
You do what you can sister, and ask Allah to conceal your shortcomings. Piety is exclusively in the heart.

my brother How do we spell the Arabic nameسيرين in English?

I've seen craziest spellings of many names. Kaitlin, Kaitlyn, Caitlin, Caitlyn, even Kaytlynn.
So spell it however you like to spell it. Seareen, C.Re-/n/, even Kseaghreaghnge.

Can the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam make du'a from his grave?

1. There's no disagreement among scholars of Islam that all Prophets are alive in their graves and praying until the day of judgement. God has forbidden all creatures and the earth from eating or decomposing the bodies of the Prophets.
2. The Prophet said that anyone who sends salutations to him, the angels roaming on earth will take the message and deliver it to him. Then, God revives the prophet so that he returns the peace upon the sender. And that, is undoubtedly a form of du'aa.
There's a difference among scholars of sunnah whether or not someone can ask the Prophet to ask Allah (on your behalf) so He (Allah) forgives you. That's called Tawassul (i.e. seeking a connection), the Hanbali scholars permit it, other mathaahib permit, discourage and some scholars prohibit that.
Some of the scholars in our mathhab who permitted (or encouraged) the Tawassul via the Prophet (or righteous scholars) and considered it a matter of Fiqh, usually mentioned in books of Fiqh, chapter on pilgrimage, section on visiting the grave of the Prophet, include: The imam Ahmed himself, al-Mirwathi, Ibn Qudamah, al-Mirdawi, al-Hajjawi and al-Buhooti.
You can follow the above two points if you want to be on the safe side, and make much salawat upon the prophet everyday, and Allah Almighty will send ten times the peace and prayers upon you in return.
Some brothers will little knowledge and much zeal have linked that to shirk (polytheism). Even Sheikh Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab (i.e. father of "Wahhabism"), explicitly stated that visiting a grave of a prophet or a righteous man and asking Allah by that grave, is prohibited because it may lead others to shirk, but it's not shirk.

As Salam alkyum, can I wear my pants above my ankles as a preference of style, for example lower I do not like because it may get dirty, and I don't like long long pants. Therefore, is above the ankles alright, the sense of not falling in the Hadith by saying I will put it over ankle from arrogance

It's better to do it out of following the Sunnah than out of style.

I think the reason you are not answering my question is because you're a Hanbali scholar, and your conclusion would differ from the Hanafi ruling. Sorry if that was disrespectful to ask.

Or because I have over 3000 unanswered questions akhi, please send me your question again and kindly remind me if I didn't answer.

هل فعلا ورد ان سورة يوسف تزيل الهم؟؟ وما الاشياء الاخرى التي تساعد علي تفريج الكرب وازالة الهم؟

القران كله يزيل هم المؤمن، وطبعا السور التي تذكر قصص المرسلين عموما وكيف عانوا ما عانوه ثم كيف نصرهم الله، من أعظم من يشرح الصدر ويورث الطمأنينة ويوقر في القلب الرضا بقدر الله واليقين بموعوده.
ومن جرب ذلك، خصوصا في سورة يوسف، عرف.

السلام عليكم ، هل الافضل تلاوة القرآن بالتجويد مع تطبيق التجويد كاملة وهذا يبطئ معدل التلاوة حيث يستغرق الجزء حوالي ٤٥د أم تلاوة عادية كما كنت اتلوه قبل تعلمي احكام التجويد وإتقاني لها حيث أنهي تقريباً جزئين إلا قليلاً مقارنة بالتلاوة مع تجويد ؟ وهل لهما نفس الأجر ؟

ممكن تقرأ بطريقة الحدر مع تطبيق التجويد كاملا في حوالي ٢٥ دقيقة للجزء الواحد.

ما حكم التأمين الصحي مع التوضيح افادكم الله

لو تأمين تكافلي بحيث أن الفلوس اللي تضعها تستثمر وتعود لك إن لم يقع ضرر، مثلا نايل تكافل في مصر، وcooperative insurance في امريكا وكندا، فهذا جائز.
لو حرامية وبيلهطوا الفلوس سواء تضرر أحد أم لا، فهو غش، وغرر، وميسر، واحتيال، وبيع ما لا يملكون يعني حرام وملعون وسيء.
و من فضلك، ليس مقام السؤال مقام للشرح، لو عاوز توضيح روح اثني ركبك بين يدي فقيه واتعلم منه.
أما أن تطلب توضيح أو شروط أخرى، ناقص تطلب اجيبلك دوا من الصيدلية وتُمن جودة في طريقي لو حضرتك عاوز. :) هذا لا ينبغي قوله وفقك الله.

You mentioned that the work of a economist is permissible...but every single economist have to work with riba-things...can you shed some light on it? Thanks!

Not true at all.

Salam ustadh, i need some advice on what I should do. During the first half of Ramadan i am having 2 big exams and the last part of Ramadan wont be a problem bcz of no exams. Should i focus on Ramadan during the last part of Ramadan or should i begin with balancing studies and 3ibadah from first day

I think you answered yourself.

ايه الاولى من وجهة نظرك يا شيخ الاكثار من القرآن في رمضان بدون تفسير ولا مثلا وضع خطة قراءة القرآن كاملا من مختصر احد التفاسير علشان احقق الفايدة المرجوة من القرآن؟

لا تضيع وقتك في المفضول عن الفاضل.

القران فقط في رمضان، السنة كلها عندك تطلب علم وتفهم وتسأل.

If I only go to pre-prom take pictures with my friends and dress up, is that okay? (staying away from anything impermissible that might happen?)

Taking photos and dressing up for the occasion should be fine, if you're able to adhere to the manners and teachings of Islam in your dresscode and interactions with the opposite sex.
If you think that by going you will fall into prohibited acts, then you should avoid it.

Dear Sheikh, I'm Shia but I want to convert to Sunnism. Will my marriage still be valid (my wife is a strong Shia).

May the Almighty guide you and support you. There are so many sects under Shi'ism, you don't want to enter into a new sect. Rather, revert to the mainstream Islam, which is the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him and his family.
You and your wife as Shi'a are considered Muslims, in the eyes of the vast majority of Sunni scholars. The marriage is valid. If she upholds extreme Shi'i beliefs (such as that the imam Mahdi hears and knows everything, or that imam Ali judges people on the day of judgement instead of God, or that the current Qur'an is corrupted and the real Qur'an is hidden with alMahdi, or that the wife of the Prophet committed adultery, etc.) Then these are polytheistic beliefs contrary to Islamic monotheism. You'd have to explain to her, with patience, wisdom and kindness, the correct beliefs of Islam. If she adheres then you get double the reward. If she insists on those beliefs, then you should not continue this marriage, and maybe Allah has a better plan for you and her.
As her husband, you should be able to know how to convince her, and have enough love and mercy towards her, that you'd do your best to convince her to follow your path.
