QUESTION:
Dear Bilqis,
This may be very weird, because I have never told this to anyone before, but I feel very depressed. As a Muslim I know killing myself is the biggest sin a person can commit, but I feel like hurting myself. I am 20 years old female and I hate my life…

QUESTION:
Dear Bilqis,
Assalamalakum,
I need some help and guidance. About a month ago I meet this girl at work. She is Pakistani. She moved from London to Manchester, and she has no family or friends here, so I decided that I would help her get settled down and help her make new friends. One night she called me over to her flat saying that someone had broken in, so naturally I went over. Once I got there she started saying she wants to have sex with me. At first I said no, it’s wrong but then she started to kiss me and I could not resist.

QUESTION:
Dear Bilqis,
Aslamu elikum warehmatullah
Dear Bilqis, I have a problem, plz give me quick response. I was making a sin of Zinaa. I’m very ashamed of it. I was trapped by the guy. But now i want to marry him, because I don’t want to destroy the life of another guy. Plz tell me what can i do? I regularly do Dua to Allah to plz forgive me for this sin.

WAEL ANSWERS:
Dear Sister D., As-Salamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah,
It seems that you have repented and made tawbah for your actions. That is very good, alhamdulillah. It’s commendable that you are now following the correct path and trying to act as a Muslim.
You said that you were “trapped by the guy.” I don’t know what you mean by this. If you meant that he physically forced you, then this is not Zinaa, it is rape. This would be a crime that he committed against you. This is not a sin by you, because you were the victim of a crime. In this case I would urge you to report this to the authorities so they can take action against him.
Or maybe your saying you were “trapped” by him means that he pressured you emotionally in some way, and you gave in.
In either case, this man is absolutely not a good man and you should not marry him.
Don’t worry right now about marrying someone else. Just focus on living your life, being a good Muslim, and healing from this incident. Eventually, when you are ready, you will find someone good Insha’Allah, and you do not have to mention your past at that time, as it is between you and Allah.

QUESTION:
Dear Bilqis,
My sister has lost her Gold chain inside the home and she is very much upset and wants to find out the way in which she can find the lost chain. You are kindly requested to please tell the way of doing Istikharah we will be highly thankful to you.
- Faran from Pakistan
WAEL ANSWERS:
Dear Faran, As-Salamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah,
Istikhara is not appropriate for this situation. Istikhara is for a situation in which you must choose a course of action or make a decision, and you need Allah’s guidance and help in making a good choice.
Your sister should simply make duaa’ and ask Allah to help her retrieve her item. However, as Muslims we should not focus excessively on these material things. Your sister should also make Duaa’ for her aakhirah and her religion, asking Allah for forgiveness, mercy and blessings.
For good information and articles about Duaa’, you can see one of my sister websites, http://www.DuaShare.com
