Ruling on a pregnant or breastfeeding woman who fears for herself or child if she fasts
Sheikh Muhammad Adam Al-Ithyobi rahimahullah wrote:
The view that seems strongest to me from these opinions is the one that says they only have to make up the fast later, and they do not have to feed the poor. This is because they are similar to a sick person, and Allah did not require feeding the poor for the sick person.…
She asked her husband, “Where were you last night?”
He said, “Fear not. I’m a man who fears Allah and I don’t do anything sinful.”

The Correct Attitude
First wives may feel hurt or jealous — that is human. But they should never prefer haram over what Allah made halal.
Signs Of A Cheating Husband

How to Calculate Your Annual Zakah
Sheikh Abdussalam Ash-Shuway'ir explains:
I will explain to you an easy way to calculate zakat. Although it is slightly outside our main topic, I believe it is very important and beneficial.

Muhammad ibn Sulayman (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
البنون نِعَم، والبنات حسنات، والله عز وجل يحاسب على النعم ويجازي على الحسنات

The Benefits of Giving Children a Kunyah (“Abu…” or “Umm…”)
1⃣. Following the Prophetic practice
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to give kunyah even to children.
In Sahih Al-Bukhari, Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said:

‘O Abu ‘Umayr, what happened to the little bird?’” He had a small bird that he used to…
Analogy
The example of those who lack patience and attempt to hasten the establishment of a masjid through unlegislated means is similar to that of a woman who, unwilling to wait for a suitable proposal, takes it upon herself to actively seek suitors through shameful means—disregarding the command of Allāh:
"And let those who do not find the means for marriage keep themselves chaste until Allāh enriches them…
Women Are Being Easily Misled, Shouldn't Circumcision be Made Mandatory?
Sheikh Uthaymeen rahimahullah:
There is a hadith about it, but it is weak, stating that it is an honour (makrumah) for women.

For women, this is not the case; women are free…

Female circumcision was not something that the Prophet (peace be upon him) commanded people to do for their daughters. Rather, he simply mentioned it.

Is a Husband Cursed For Refusing Intimacy?
Question:
If a woman refuses intimacy with her husband, there is a hadith that mentions a curse upon her. But if a husband refuses his wife in the same way, does the same ruling apply or not?
Sheikh Sa'd Al-Khathlan:
First: When a woman refuses her husband’s call to bed, there is a strong warning in the words of the Prophet (peace be upon him):

Benefit: And if the blood decreases, there is consensus that she becomes pure by that when she sees the signs of purity.
Benefit: Distinguishing (tamyeez) between menstrual blood and chronic blood is required if reliance cannot be placed on the cycle regarding menstruation, such as when a woman, from the beginning of her puberty, is in a state of irregularity, or has no habit, or had a habit but forgot it, and so on.
It is distinguished by these two signs:
1 - The colour of the blood and its smell: The blood that is menstrual blood…

Yellowish Discharge (As-Sufrah): It is yellow liquid, not blood.
Brownish and yellowish discharge have different cases:
1 - If it occurs during the time of menstruation and its cycle, it is considered menstruation.
2 - If the blood (i.e., menstrual blood) becomes lighter on some days until nothing remains except brownish or yellowish discharge, it is still considered menstruation. Included in this case is when…

Parenting – A Demanding Role With Great Rewards
I recently came across this clip of an incident that occurred many years ago [https://t.me/salafihomeschool/1125].
It serves as a powerful reminder of the immense responsibility we carry as parents. Bringing children into the world may be easy, but honoring the trust and fulfilling the obligations that come with it is a weighty and demanding task.

Questioner: What is the ruling regarding women going for ṣalāh al-tarāwīḥ wearing adornments and perfume, thinking that this is acting upon [Allāh's] Statement تعالى:
