Neway I heard a story that a couple of years ago some type of inscident occured in Madina, so the people quickly left the mosque to calm down the situation and see what exactly happened. As the people left the Masjid-AL Nabawi, a boy started yelling "Rasuallah Salalahualaihiwasalim Hayathi,Rasuallah Salalahualaihiwasalim Hayathi, Rasuallah Salalahualaihiwasalim Hayathi." Of course this means Rasullallah Salalahu ALaihiwasalam is alive. SO neway when the people ran into the Holy Mosque the kid was lying their dead. COuld u plz tell me ur input on this story nd wheather or not u think i tmay have accord. I believe the story but at the same time am unsure, but just wanted a backup from a big SHeik like you. Ma Salama wa Jaza kalla kul Khair Assalam Wailalkum

Question: Assalaamu Alaikum I have a very serious problem but i would really appreciate it if it is not published and that my answer will be sent directly to me.pLease do keep my question in strict confidence.If you can give me the answer without publishng my question ,i will be grateful. I have ben maaried 30yrs.My husband has a very bad temper and some vices too,we have one child who is married now. I put up totally for the sake of my child with utmost patience,he never even helped to find a good husband for his daughter excepting finance the wedding. 10yrs ago,he started a business,then i found out that he was always on the phone with his partners wife in front of her husband,the couple used to send food for him while in the shop,even though i have sent food and my husband brings it back saying he was not hungry that he will eat it the next day,this was a muslim couple.I asked my husband directly ,he denied,so i confronted the husband of this lady and of course he reports that to his wife and she cries to my husband and ever since he has been taking revenge .He left the business 3 yrs after he started it due to this problem but he helped the other couple start somewhere.He applied for a job in the usa and we left 5 yrs ago,i confronted him ,saying that unless he treats me properly i will not come and he does not have to come and see me,he cried and said he would and i joined him. I have to fight every month to get an allowance from him,i used to work previously ,now because we moved i have no income.He will not buy groceries until it is completlely dry. He is very vindictive , he creates problems wilfully so we will argue and then either pushes me or throws my qurans all over the place.He is a person who goes for thabligh jamaat once in a while ,prays 5 times a day. Also i found out he was taking somebody elses wife for classes which he was following in the previous country ,the husband knew about it but not me.I wouldnt have known ,but while i was sleeping oneday i heard him come back after classes ,also i heard him talking to someone in the computer room,it sounded like a womens voice and then as quickly i heard him go out again,I confronted him the next day,he said it was nobody,so i followed him next day and i saw him take her in the car to her home.nad she is a non muslim. Over in our new country i find him coming late again.He never takes vacation or time off ,he goes for eid prayer and then to work. This place is a remote area ,i do not hardly know anyone except the mosque crowd,he sometimes leaves me alone for the weekend and goes for jamaat.he is 60yrs old but very very strong and i am 56.We have not lived as husband and wife for 6yrs or so,i couldnt take the lies or deception.I know he keeps in contact with all these women.I get anonymous calls too.I have told him over and over again that he can have his own good life but to treat me with respect and to spend on me for my needs,but he cannot even do that.He feels everything he earns is entirely his and i should be grateful that i have a roof over my head.As long as i keep quiet and takes what he hardly gives me and do not interfere in his life then there is peace and quiet.He makes it a point to tell me to shut up in front of my son inlaw when he gets angry with me,or he will look for an audience to do so.Many of his vices i have not told a single soul,but i did recently to his sister as i could not suffer alone in silence ,this i did too after i heard that he had complained about me to the whole community about complete private matters which are totally irrelevant but is so saddening for me.At this age where am i to go ,my brothers and sisters are of no help to me ,they only spread the rumours to everyone about us, as my husband cleverly puts me down and gets their good side but Allah knows the whole truth.He is earning extremely well,but it is difficult to spend for me,even though he has health and dental insurance he refuses to pay my bill if i have to go to the doctors ,so i have to save from the 100 dollar allowance he gives me for my tablets and other needs. I cant tell you in this month of Ramazan how i am sobbing my heart for Allah to hear me.The more my husband does wicked to me i find him only getting more richer and powerful. Please help me with duas ,prayers whatever.Justice has to be served once in our lifetime.I know patience will be rewarded,but i am only human. Thank you.i will be looking forward to a reply in this holy month but in the strictest confidence. May Allah reward you

Answer: Dear Sister in Islam,May Allah give you Patience.Please read 2 rajat salah then read 11 time darood the read 7 times"Hasbi ullaho lailah illaho alaihi tawakkalto wa howa rabbul arshil azeem" after sunrise & maghrib.

From: siste in islam <shamsun@juno.com> (hartford, usa) - Nov 6, 2003

Question: Assalaamu Alaikum I would like some duas or necessary prayers for this problem. Please reply in confidence without publishing my name or e=mail address,you could quote me as a muslim sister,thank you. We gave our daughter in marraige with a good dowry,since the couple was leaving the country ,the inlaws wanted to live in the house which we had given our daughter ,it is in my daughters name.I was dead against it,but the others coaxed us to let them use it for sometime ,then i requested that the attached apt be left for our use,(that is us, parents of the girl).After we left the mother of our son in law had got permission from her son to make use of the apt for her social work,he did so without even asking my daughter,she really has no need for that part at all,her 4 sons and married daughter are occupying the house.We were patient for 4 yrs ,then my daughter asked for the house back as all of them are earning,even though there is no father they are all earning well.The mother in law is now refusing to leave. When i visited our country i had no place of my own to stay ,as when we built this house for our daughter we built an apt attached to it for us to live whenever we visited.I had to stay with my daughters in laws in one of the rooms and i had to walk 10 mts daily to my three sisters homes for meals.The son is not of any help,he is keeping silent about the whole issue,this is causing friction between husband and wife.We want to solve this amicably as possible to avoid problems for my daughter but getting out of the mothers hands looks like it is going to be a major major problem.We do not want our daughter to take any drastic actions either,even though she can as the house is in her name but the mother as well as all her children are not moving .They have a big property of their own which she is pretending to sell for the past 6 yrs.Please in the name of Almighty Allah help us,that they leave on their own without causing any animosity or problem to my daughter as well as my daughters husband to realise the wrong doing of his mother and help us to get the house back amicably.We would appreciate any duas or prayers for this to be solved .We pray we will hear from you soon.Thank you and salaams.

Question: asalamualaikum ya sheikh can you please give me some reference from the sunna and the quran regarding that you can ask for something through a saint by the permission of Allah. i just need this information because some scholars say its totally haram and its a practise used by the hypocrits.

Answer: Dear A Ghafur,Reference from Holy Quran verse 35 Al-Mayeda.A great scholar Shah wali ullah says "Waseela" means to get Bayat from a Murshid(Spiritual guide)(Al-qual ul Jameel).REf; from Hadith Bukhari narrated Abu Hurairah(RA)Allahs messenger saidAllah(SWT) said "I will declare war against him who shows hostility to a Wali(pious) of Mine.And the most beloved thing with which My slave comes nearer to Me is what I have enjoined upon him; and My slave keeps on coming closer to Me through performing nawafil till I love him,When I love him I become his hearing with which he hears,his seeing with which he sees,his hand with which he strikes,and if he asks (some thing) from Me,I give him,and if he asks My protection I protect him."Dont go behind their saying.It is enough for us.

Question: salam shaikh i have a question, i think I am possessed because i am 33 years old and cannot get married. whatever I happen to utter comes out true, any bad thing that is. I once said that so and so is not good looking and then my face changed!!! I once said so and so hasn't got nice hair while on the phone to someone and next thing I know my hair became horrible, next i mentioned that I that someone didn't have thick hair, my hair started to fall. All of these comments were made in innocense not meaning any malice neither were they made infront of the said people. once I menitioned that people who study computer science earn a lot and next thing I know i was dropped from that subject and the secretary wouldnt' even let me enter the building without abusing me! All of the above mentioned things happened when I was talking to my sister. Next I mentioned to someone on the internet that "i think i am possesed (because I sometimes talk to myself unintentionally and this condition has started since 1987 when I visited some relatives who are notorious for black magic)" and that person asked me if i heard any voices and i said "no". Well guess what, I would hear a whisper violently in my ear while i was sleeping just before fajr. i changed houses and still it happened so i started reading surah fatiha, ayatul kursi and the last 3 surahs at night and now it has stopped. But i still talk to myself like i have done since 1987. I did an istikhara and found myself possesed by the evil ones.what should i do? someone needs to perform exorcism.

I got married last year and i did'nt see one day of happiness. I dont know what is happening at our home. My mother in law is sick for some reason and she is blaming it on me for the whole time. MY ALLah knows the truth. I have tried to tell her and tried to get closer to her but she would'nt listen. THis way my husband is in double tention. We fight a lot.He keeps telling me to go to my parents house because his mom is sick and then he comes after some days to pick me up. His family is having problems with my parents. No one is in a normal situation. I have noticed that my husband is loosing respect for my family and me.I dont believe in the magic stuff but now i am forced to think about it.My husband and i think that we should move out. He plans that and the next day he changes his mind. Is there any type of wazeefa for it. My life is so misreble. Is it possible for someone to such things like magic to break someone's house.

Question: as salam walikum mullana saheb i have a problem here. actually its kind of a long story, but let me make it short for your convience. i have a muslim friend, but her promblem is that she thinks too much about boys. unfortunetly she has many boyfriends, and every time she has a new boyfriend she dumps the old one. she did this to about 3 or 4 guys, and whenever she leaves a guy she is very upset and then she discusses this matter with me, and she also tell all this to a non-muslim friend. and that non muslim friend suggests her what to do and what not to do. couple of days ago my friend had some problem with her current boyfriend and she was very upset and was in tears. then she told everything to this non muslim friend, and this non muslim friend told her not to meet, see or talk to this guy again. and my friend agreed on it. but few days later this non muslim friend asked me if my friend is again with her boyfriend(the same guy), i asked her how did she know about it, she told me that she can see my friend happy again, and she knew that she always does that meaning (she is happy once again if she is with the same boy). here's my problem, i told to this non muslim women that yes she is back with that same guy again, i knew taht b'cos my sister told me that my friend was walking with her boyfriend, and my sister have seen her. so i knew that she was back with taht guy, and so i told this non muslim women what i knew (which was not a lie). but after telling her that i realized that what i did was wrong, there is a hadees in which our prophet (pbuh) tells us that " try to cover up the faults of a believer." this means dont ever try to show the bad habits of a muslim, right. but by mistake i did that. i asked pardon from allah tala, did tauba, and promised that inshaallah i will not repeat this mistake again (atleast not wantedly). i am sorry i think i am wasting your precious time, but believe me i really need some help here. ok,so then i told to my friend what my sister saw, and then she (my friend) was all upset, she told me to say to my sister that the guy she was walking with was none but his cousin. i told her that i will tell that to my sis, but i did not b'cos i knew she will know that i am lieing, anyways. then the next day my friend asked me if talked to my sis and then i lied to her and said oh yes i talked to her, and said that my sis belived me (this was my lie). now here what happed the non muslim women is mad at my friend b'cos she is back with taht guy again and this non muslim friend is not talking to her in proper manner. i do not liked this behaivoir of her towards my friend, b'cos no matter how much right this non muslim women is, she is still a disbeliever, and i will never tolarate that this non muslim is treating a muslim women this way. so what i thought of doing is to tell another lie to this non muslim friend that my friend has now changed completely, she is talking to this guy but only school related talks (this will be my lie). so as to change the behavior of this non muslim women's attitude towards my believing friend. and then i will tell my friend to change her life style, and to be more religious. i have told this to her many times before but i dont see any improvements in her, magar i am still trying to change her behavior, inshaallah allah meri madat karege. aap mujhe itna bataye ki main yeh joohte boldo na us non muslim women se, ise meri dost ki izat baj jayegi, aur mujhe meri galti karna ka gham kam ho jayega. main aap ke jawad ka intezaar kar rahi hoon. main janti hon ki aap yeh sab sunn ke bore hu gaye honge. magar agar aap meko is masle ka haal batadege to allah ap ko neki dedege. plz answer this question, i will be really thankful to allah first and then to you. mujhe maaf kardo aap ko bhute takleef de rahi hoon. jazar allah wa kariro razikhin

Question: salams Shaikh I have been in difficulty for the last five years, I keep changing houses rapidly, my parents and siblings act like prophet Yusuf Alahis salam's siblings! They feel animosity towards me for no reason what so ever, and so do the people around me, and my siblings encourage the people around me to be more hostile!!! this started when I visited some relatives in Pakistan and they are knows for their black magic to separate families (they have ruined many people's lives) and sending jinns via the person's belongings (such as clothes or hair or any thing that has had the victim' sweat on it) to stop people from getting married. some people have said this could be due to divine test, could you tell me what to read, I am unble to get married even so that I could start my own life.

Question: DEAR SIR, I WAS READING THAT BEFORE DOING ANY WAZIFA, YOU MUST FIRST GET PERMISSION FROM ANY SHAIKH( SUFI). OTHER THING I READ IN "HUSSAN HUSSAIN"( by imam muhammad bin muhammad jazri ) WAS THAT PROPHET( PBUH) ADVISED HAZRAT ALI TO DO FOLLOWING WAZIFA TO HAVE GOOD MEMORY, WHEN ALI TOLD PROPHET( PBUH) THAT HE CANT MEMORIZE HOLY QURAN. PROPHET ALSO SAID THAT THIS PRAYER OF " MOMIN " ( MUSLIM) NEVER FAILS. PROPHET ( PBUH) ALSO SAID THAT TO ANY ONE YOU TOLD ( DOES IT MEAN PERMISSION ???) THIS PRAYER, HE WILL SUCCEED. PRAYER ( WAZIFA): 4 RAKAT SALAT IN NIGHT OF FRIDAY ( FOR 3--5--7 FRIDAY NIGHTS) SUCH THAT IN 1ST RAKAT AFTER FATIHA , READ SURA YASEEN 2ND RAKAT,,.... SURA DUKHAN 3............... SAJDA 4..... AL-MAILK. AFTER THAT PRAISE ALLAH, DAROOD AND ASTAGHFAR FOR ALL MOMINEEN.THEN IS A LONG PRAYER .( DUA ). ADDULLAH IBN ABBAS SAID THAT AFTER 5--7 THURSDAYS, HAZRAT ALI CAME BACK SAYING TO PROPHET THAT I CAN NOW EASILY MEMORIZE QURAN AND HADITHS. ON THIS PROPHET ( PBUH) SAID " INDEED ALI IS MOMIN".( note prophet( pbuh ) didnt said muslim, he said momin.) NOTE : THIS HADITH IS IN TIRMIZI. QUESTIONS: 1) DO I NEED PERMISSION OF ANY ONE TO GET BETTER RESULTS FROM THIS WAZIFA. 2) CAN I SUCEED IN IT WTH OUT ANY ONE PERMISSION. 3) IS IT LIKE THAT AS I AM A "MUSLIM" NOT A "MOMIN", SO FOR THIS REASON I WILL NEVER SUCCEED IN IT.? REQUESTS: IF I CAN SUCCEED IN THIS WAZIFA , KINDLY PROVIDE ME PERMISSION TO DO THIS WAZIFA. dear scholar, AS I HAVE STARTED THIS WAZIFA SINCE 3RD WEEKS BACK AND WILL CONTINUE FOR FURTHER 4 WEEKS MORE,( DUE TO ABSENCE OF PERMISSION I AM WORRIED IT WILL NOT WORK, SO I NEED SOMEONE KIND ENOUGH TO HELP ME) ONE THING I MUST TELL YOU THAT I HAVENT MEMORIZE THESE SURATS .. YASEEN, DUKHAN, SAJDAH, AL-MALIK SO I KEEP A BOOK OPEN CLOSE TO ME DURING PRAYER AND READ FROM IT,, DOES THIS WILL WORK? IS THERE ANY WRONG IN IT??

Answer: Dear Muhammad Khan,Please continue this wazifa you are permitted.You are not allow to look at book during salat.May Allah bless you.

Question: Asalam Alaikum respected scholar, There are some lists around that I have heard of, that contain a list of emulsifiers,chemical agents etc, that if present in a food product make that product Haram. Mostly I have heard about E471 as something to avoid. I understand there are many others.. The problem is that these chemicals are found in most of the food products available in market. Does the presence of these chemicals really make the food product/or any other product haram? Someone told me that these chemicals are not necessarily haram,,as they may or may not contain animal fat. What is the criteria we should follow? Lastly could you please let us know of the list of chemicals,emulsifier etc that we should avoid? Thanks wasalam.

Answer: Dear Aleem,It is easy to contact in your country religious organisation or you can contact direct to manufactures they will explain you about the ingreadence.

From: Mehroonisha <j.nisha@rocketmail.com> (Sydney, Australia) - Nov 25, 2003

Question: Assalamualaikum, I have a question regarding zakat and would appreciate if you could clarify it for me. As far as I know Zakat on jewellery gold and silver is compulsary. Question 1 ---------- I'll like to explain my question with an example. I have some gold jewellery. I paid zakat for it in June 2002. In October 2002 I bought a gold chain. In June 2003 I have to pay the zakat for my old jewellery and In October 2003 I have to pay zakat for my gold chain. Is this how it works or I have to pay the zakat for all at one time. Question 2 ---------- If I have gold jewelleries which I don't wear them everyday only occasionally do I still have to pay zakat. Question 3 ---------- Jewellery which I wear everyday is only subject to zakat. How far is it true. Question 4 ---------- How is zakat calculated for jewellery? Question 5 ---------- We only pay zakat on gold & silver above the minimum limit. What is the minium limit. Question 6 ---------- If you have gold & silver more then the minimum limit does the minimum limit applies or you have to pay for all the gold & sliver? Please clarify my doubt Salam Nisha

Answer: Dear Nisha,According to Sharia Gold & silver is based for Zakat. 1.You should pay zakat for all gold,silver & cash amount which you own at the paying time of zakat.2&3.You have to pay zakat you wear it or not but it must be in your property.4.If you have 75grams gold or 520 grams silver It is called Nisab.It is important this nisab you have since one year in your custody.5.Minimum limit is 2.5 persent.6.Yes,you have to pay for all gold & silver.May Allah bless us.

From: Muslimaah <pakification@hotmail.com> (within England, England) - Dec 5, 2003

Question: Assalamu alaykum respected Imam May Allah Almighty reward u well 4 all the work u do for the sake of Islam. My question is based on something on this page. It was regarding the subject of Interest and you guided the questioner to Dr Tahir ul Qadri. Now I don’t understand this cuz I’ve read that this scholar is working under the name of Sunni Scholer but he once read prayer behind a Deobandi. Now if today my question 2 u were that r we allowed to pray salaah behind a Deobandi or Wahabbi – being Sunni myself, you would reply that – no you are not allowed. So how can Dr Tahir be a guided scholar when this is what he had done and admitted to praying behind a Imam of different fiqh? I am confused about this situation and need ur assistance. Please reply quick. Second cementation is about the present state. I was searching through the net when I came across photographs of Dr Tahir and Benazir Bhutto. Now if mixing between the two genders is strictly forbidden what is happening here? I don’t understand this theory. First confusion is based on this – why was he with a non-mehrem women especially if she was not in pardah, secondly, why allow for photographs to be taken, ok if u say so then ok that ur allowed to take pictures and photographs if u require for Islamic purposes, but what Islamic purpose was this for? And lastly, where does this leave the ahadith of Hazrath Aisha Sadiqa radhiyAllahualaha that on The Day of Judgement u will be asked to place a soul into the picture. Now I’ve read ur mention before about Hazrath Aisha radhiyAllahu having had dolls in the house, maybe this was before the revalations came, before even the understandings came because to my knowledge there is not major distinction between a picture of a doll and a dol itself. Please correct me if I am wrong and please reply quickly so I am relived of my confusion. Jazakamullahkhair. Wa alaykum asalam

Answer: Dear Muslimaah,Holy Prophet(Peace be upon Him)said,"Zun-nul momeneena khaira"Have a good thinking about belivers" So act of a muslim should be saying of Prophet.We believe those they read Shahada,they are Muslim.Reading salah behind a muslim is allowed in Islam.The philosophy of prohibition of picture is people of arab used to worship the Idols.This was revealed in Makkah.Hadith of Aisha is in Madina.May Allah guide us on straight path.

We do not live as a married couple though we live in the same house.I have told him over and over again if this is the life he wants he can enjoy it,but to give me some respect as he insults me in front of my son in law,gives me a hard time for my monthly allowance.I do not work anymore,he decides and does whatever he likes with our house or with things that belong to the both of us without even a word to me.I am subject to anonymous calls.What i cannot understand is he prays 5 times a day,fasts and also goes on thableegh jamat occasionally.He has a bitter hatred towards me and i cannot understand why?I know for a fact those women have a dislike for me as they know that i am angry about what my husband is doing for them.Please brother help me .i hvae benn praying tahajjud and whatever i can for the past 10yrs when it was getting worse daily,his harassment and oppression of me. The sceond problem .We gave a dowry for our one and only child a house in her name ,the in laws begged us to let them live there for awhile,so against my wishes we told them alright but to leave the apt attached to it vacant ,that too they fought for but even though i refused my husband went against my wishes and let them use it,The house is in my daughters name.It is now 5 yrs since they have occupied it,they have boldly rented the apt without my daughters permission and not given her one cent,the motherin law has her son on her side and they say it is between her son and her what happens to the house.Even when my son in law was without a job we had to help pay his rent,my daughter cannot sell or or get any benefit from that house,i fear they will not leave. As this is a very delicate situation i pray it will be solved in good faith and harmony.Please help my son in law respect his wifes rights and talk to her discuss matters,he never ever discusses anything with her ,shuts her out completely if anything to do with his family and his mother keeps hounding him for money even though she is not paying any rent.Please give some prayers for my daughter for her problems and for mine too.Hoping to hear from you very soon,inshallah. Thanking you Salaams

Answer: Dear Nihara,Firstly I suggest your daughter to love her husband & serve him in good intention.secondly she should read "Ya Wadoodo"100 times daily after fagr or Isha,11 times darood.

But Mufti Sahib, after that "Dakatee", we were so afraid and we cant get sleep in that house. I sold that house in July and purchased another. Meanwhile I was also terminated from my job in May. When I bought my second house, I also started a shop but it was also a failure and in December 2002 I had no other option but to sell my house to clear my debits and to meet the expenses of my family. I shifted to a rented house. From January to July 2003 I went every where to find a job for me but where ever I go, either they say that you too much experience for us or they say sorry we dont have a job for you.

From: johan <johafarera> (vancover, canada) - Dec 8, 2003

Question: Assalamalaikum, its secound time i am writing it again , pls answer the question caz 12 th dec is the last date , before that if u can pls send the reply. the letter from my sisiter is below: assalamualaikum i'm a muslim girl...22 yrs of age and a dental student...writing from jeddah. i get islamic emails from u time to time and i know that u hav dedicated ur life to islam by becoming a scholar trying to guide people on the right path. i need ur help to solve a family problem which i'm sure u will be able to with the aid of ur knowledge...i could hav consulted any site but usually their authencity is not confirmed...therefore i'm approaching u for help. first of all facts abt my family... my father is an indian...54 yrs old my mother is a pakistan national(migrated to pak when she was a teenager)...45 yrs. i hav 2 younger brothers (we live in pak with mother at present) ...20 and 19 yrs old repectively. we lived in jeddah with our father until 1999(i was 17 then)...then went to pak to complete our education as foreign schools in Saudi Arabia are till 12 standard only. (india). my mother is a schizophrenic patient...i will tell u its meaning and maybe u will hav to look for it further for a better understanding...it is due to a naturally existing defect in the brain w/c has a hereditary factor, it b/c obvious in adulthood... it changes their thoughts and behaviour completely, it seems they hav a dual nature...it handicaps them for life b/c its not curable, medicines only make them revert back to their normal selves faster than they do on their own...such a patient is intelligent but paranoid, thinks everyone including family is scheming against them, no one cares for them, they are all alone in a horrible world and cause damage to their lives and those around them without realising it...they are not sick at all times, but there are times when they are normal and other times they are abnormal...i think they are more sensitive and get hurt & disheartened more easily and hav less tolerance and therefore get sick when they cant stand things anymore. my maternal grandmother is normal, but one of her sister had the same disease...in the next generation my mother and her eldest sister hav the disease...in the next generation my cousin seems to hav the tendency but i'm not sure...my aunt thinks she has it. my parents were married in 1980... my father is a BCOM and also has a computer programer diploma (though my father now works in an altogether different profession and earns more than his qualification) & my mother is a BA(in islamic studies) and is a housewife. my father was dark, with simple looks while my mother was fair & pretty. my fahter was strict, short-tempered and harsh...age has now softened him to some extend...while my mother was a soft kind of a person who could be easily pressurised by people. but still generally they had a wonderful life and were happy but the people around them b/c jealous and specially my father's brother's & friend's wives delibrately disheartened my mother (as a team) whenever they could find an opportunity. i dont know from when did the disease take its affect but my father says the early years of their life were wonderful...and my mother was an exceptional wife in almost all aspects (she is a good muslim, cooks well, keeps the house sparklingly clean, can stitch & do embroidery to a good standard, managed the children well etc etc...w/c are difficult to find in a single person). 1. my paternal uncles...2 out of 7(later on 2 more joined them) took 2nd and 3rd wives on the basis of rediculous reasons (such as 'my wife has too many wishes to fulfil...when infact she was a normal person who dint want her husband to practice heterosexuality)...and my paternal grandmother encouraged them...in fact pushed them to divorce their 1st wives & kids and left them to beg for their survival...and got girls as young as 17 or 18 as 2nd wives (except my father his father and eldest brother the rest of the family had a weak 'eman' & belived in magic and celebrated days w/c are not recommended in islam). 2. she had an autoimmune skin disease (forgot the name...starts with a 'v') in w/c the body's defence system gradually kills its own pigment producing skin cells and forms white patches on the coloured skin...she dint come to pakistan for marrying my father to hide this fact (my father married a paki since his sister's family had migrated to pak dint want to leave her alone & my maternal grandparents gave their daughter to a foreigner who lived in a foreign country (KSA) as there were 2 daughters who had yet to be married). 3. a while after their marraige my mother's father and youngest brother died one after another...caused a great mental trauma to my mother. these 3 reasons affected my mother most...in fact got engraved in her mind as she was all alone in a mob who dispised her for wat she was (an exceptional wife and mother)...she started to hav 2 fears in her mind wat if my father remarried too b/c 2 brother in laws had done so in front of her as one would change one's shoes...and that wat if her kids inherited the skin disease her mother in law had...and she felt a great loss of family as they were far away no one could take her fears away and specially missed her late father and brother to whom she was quite close. and to top it all my father wasnt an easy husband meaning nature wise but dint deprive us of anything, he is a hardworking, dedicated father and a good muslim too...i think b/c he felt my mother was too good for him n therefore got jealous if mother admired some male...n once accused her of doing a bad deed(adultery). he joked with my mother about taking another wife w/c my mother took seriously but dint show. then later in their married life...my mother started to associate my father with other girls and women...at first in her mind and then loudly ...and dint want anything to do with the people who delibrately made her life a hell. so gradually my father stopped having ties with his brothers and friends ...we becames isolated at quite a young age (i was 10 then)...he took us to muslim countries in the middle east relax my mother and ease her worries,he dint know mother was sick and she started to associate him with girls in those arab countries and started crying frequently and going where ever she felt like instead of sight seeing with us....we went india & pak too for vacations sometimes. then gradually my mother started to hav auditory hallucinations...she heard people she new giving her warnings...she b/c agressive...the condition b/c more worse...my parents started to fight and argue... and to control and stop my mother from behaving the way she was my father beat her quite voilently sometimes when he couldnt stand her anymore...she talked on and on continuously making no sense (b/c she kept on jumping from one topic to another) and if she did make sense it was all wrong and rubish...she talked about how people we knew earlier mistreated her even when we had stopped meeting them... how baba was beating her and having good times behind her back with some girl or the other she kept changing them with time...sometimes it was my father's boss's wife, or some neighbour's daughter or her cousin sister or some maid...it could be anyone she thought it was...she even had visual hallucinations as she saw baba with the current new wife in our car in front of the balcony passing by...she said her kids were also among the opressors and were on the bad peoples side(includingfather)... she talked about all bad things happening to her w /c werent true...she sometimes even used vulgar language...she kept on repeating old incidents in a bad light whether they were bad or good...and sometiimes she started to cry and when asked for a reason she would say she missed her late brother ...all this happened at times when my mother b/c sick(the period varied from 3 to 6 months...at other times(w/c varied from 2 to 4 wks) she b/c a perfectly normal person and even laughed at her rediculousness not necessarily always sometimes she even refused she ever did such a thing or said watever she said or did was justified. my parents lived in my uncles house for 1 yr and a half in jeddah and also my mother lived with her sister in law b/f coming to jeddah permanently and also met them b/f we cut off ties with them...but she repeated their bad behaviour with her w/c was for a short time and were old incidents...all the time when she got sick. she would peak from the ba
