My Father Does Not Allow Me To Cover My Face
Question: I am a Salafi girl, and my father is someone who strongly dislikes Salafis. I wanted to cover my face, but he refused and was about to hit me. He does not see it as obligatory, and I hide from him that I have become Salafi because he only holds to his own opinion. What should I do about covering my face? Also, I have a smartphone, which I use to learn religious…
I'm an umarried revert in my 60s with no children. I've worked as a teacher for over 35 years.
In fact; teaching was my life and in my former years my career was my world and furthering it was all I cared about.
I wanted security in the dunya so I worked tirelessly for a house (which I obtained back then with a mortgage). Looking back, I was firecly independent and didn't think I needed a man for anything!

Where To Find A Husband
Sisters, don't spend hours on matrimonial sites browsing profiles. The best place to find genuine men is in the masaajid.

﴿فِی بُیُوتٍ أَذِنَ اللهُ أَن تُرۡفَعَ وَیُذۡكَرَ فِیهَا ٱسۡمُهُۥ یُسَبِّحُ لَهُۥ فِیهَا بِٱلۡغُدُوِّ وَٱلۡـَٔاصَال * رِجَالࣱ لَّا تُلۡهِیهِمۡ تِجَـٰرَةࣱ وَلَا بَیۡعٌ عَن ذِكۡرِ ٱللَّهِ وَإِقَامِ ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ وَإِیتَاۤءِ ٱلزَّكَوٰةِ یَخَافُونَ یَوۡمࣰا…
One of the most stress free way to teach little kids is to take them on a car ride (family visit, shopping, etc) and play whatever you want them to learn by setting it on repeat.

Sheikh Abū 'Amr Al-Hajoori ḥafidhahullāh responds:

"If one commits to a condition imposed upon him, then it is obligatory for him to fulfill it. This is based on the saying of the Prophet ﷺ: "The most deserving of conditions to be fulfilled are those by which you have made marital relations lawful." Yes, even though the marriage contract makes her his wife and it is permissible for him to consummate the marriage, common custom ('urf) dictates that mere agreement of…
"The principle in this matter is to adhere to customary practices ('Urf). Therefore, it is not permissible for him to consummate the marriage before announcing it as long as this is the custom.
The solution is for him to agree with the woman's guardian to bring forward the date of the marriage announcement. He should host a modest banquet without overburdening himself with expenses he cannot afford.
He must avoid…

Shaykh Jumʿān Laḥmar (حفظه الله ورعاه) was asked:
If a man prevented his wife from going to pray Ṣalāh at the ʿEīd Muṣallā, is there sny sin upon him?

Don't talk too much!
Some of the Salaf would refrain from accepting narrations from certain narrators due to their excessive talking
Al-'Aquyli narrated in "Aḍ-Ḍu'afā" with a strong chain of transmission, that:

Questioner: May Allāh reward you and bless you. What is the ruling on carrying out the marriage contract after the Friday prayer in the masjid, with dates distributed among those present? May Allāh re
Sheikh Salih Al-Luhaidan, may Allah have mercy on him, responds:
If this is based on the belief that performing the marriage contract in this place, at this time, and in this manner by distributing dates to be an act of worship, then this is an innovation. However, if they do so because it is difficult for them to gather at any other time, then there is no harm. And Allah knows best.

Question: Is it Sunnah to carry out the marriage contract inside the masjid?
Sheikh Albani, may Allāh have mercy on him, responds:
"No, it is not Sunnah; rather, it is an innovation. The hadith that states, 'Announce this marriage and beat the drum for it,' is authentic up to this point. However, the part that says, 'and make it in the masjid,' is weak. Is that clear?"
