Wa `alaykum As-Salamu wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh.

Not at all. You did what a righteous woman should do in any situation she is invited to commit anything to please poople against the will of Allah. You should thank Allah for saving you from slipping into this grave sin. The wrong is to start your life with a grave sin that is strictly forbidden by all divine laws.
As for living in Makkah, I ask Allah to make it easy for you and that He fulfills your wish if you intend to live there. But you should not regret acting according to your faith and ethics.
Allah Almighty knows best.

It seems like your wife is having bleeding, or istihadah. In her case, she is supposed to follow her normal cycle of the number of days, like 7 or 8 days, and for the rest of the days she is to take a ghusl and pray, but she has to make a fresh wudu' for every prayer.

| Question |
Asalama Alyakum!
I have two questions:
1)When performing ghusl after one is done with her period, what niyaa should she make? Please let me know how one should make niyaa in Arabic. I think I've been saying the wrong thing this whole time.
2) After using the bathroom, is it enough to use moist wipes instead of splashing water on the private area? The reason I ask is that I miss dhur prayer because I'm at work and find it difficult to wash up after using the bathroom.
Thank you

Wa'alykum As-Salamu warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.

1. You just need to intend in your heart that you are making ghusl to seek purification from a major impurity, which is menstruation.
3. Yes you can use moist wipes or the like as long as you are sure it cleanes the areas properly and you don't need the water.

| Question |
I have a young friend who is in great difficulty. She is 4 mnths pregnant with a 2 year old child whose husband sent her back to the home country with a one way ticket and very little money. His parents had come and said to him that the quran says that you have to obey the parents first and that his wife was not a good women etc.She has managed to come back but he refuses to accept her or take her home and gives very petty reasons like she wears pants etc when it was he who encouraged it.He says if we talk him into taking her back he will not be responsible for his actions. I am really worried for her. She is now staying at a friends house. Could you kindly advise us as to what is the best way to handle this situation.Jazak Allah Khair

As long as she came here then all means of reconciliation should be exhausted. Meeting with the local imam, trying to involve wise members of the community and the like, in order to effect reconciliation, should be sought, especially if the grounds for divorce are weak. If after all these means the husband is still adamant about divorce, then a true judgment should be made between them whereby she receives all her rights and leaves with dignity and kindness.

I had left my life in canada for her but we had an argument when I joined her in US. During this her sister and husband threathended me, dictating to me how I should be runing my home and that my wife will do what she wants. So I left back to canada and it's been over 4 months that she refuses to come back to me in canada.

It seems to me that there was no real agreement between the husband and wife regarding marriage expectations. In this case I suggest that you both seek counseling in order to see where the real problem is and try to bring harmony between eath other. If counseling brings no solution, then separation with kindness is the final resort.

If no intercourse took place and no ejaculation occured, then you are just required to wash the private parts and make wudu'. This applies to both husband and wife.

Recently he has commited fraud on my name, if caught I could go to jail. My husband is a good father. The only reason why we are toghether is because of our children.

I think you need to seek counseling. I prefer you go first to a reliable, qualified Muslim counsellor and tell your story honestly and seek some directions. If he is willing to go, then you should both go together and seek real solutions to your life. I think you should exhaust all efforts first to bring harmony, understanding and mutual feelings.
Allah Almighty knows best.

A divorced wife, according to Islam, is entitled to her full dower, recalculated based on today's average if marriage took place 20 years ago. She is entitled to all her financial rights the husband owes her. If she has some civil rights, like housing for which was a contributor partner all these years, she is also entitled to. She is entitled to a reasonable compensation called mut'ah as a token of appreciation for the sacrifices he contribted to the marriage. She is also entitled to her emotional rights with regard to children, the respect and care she is deserves from them.
Allah Almighty knows best.
