As always, every time I come here I am bound to learn something new. Jazakallah Khair brothers and sister, this will really help me next time I'm in a situation like this ever again.

Assalamu Alaikum brothers and sisters. Today I went to the hospital for my check-ups as usual, and then the (female) doctor checked my genitals as usual. So I started thinking, is this haram? I mean in the end it is a female touching a males genitals, and we're not married or anything. So my question is, is it ok for a doctor to touch or look at your genitals? and does it matter if it is a male or a female? I know this is a sensitive topic but I would really appreciate the answer.

Hey younes! Things have been good, I've started praying a lot. Life has just been so stressful but I guess its worth it. yes I know how to read arabic, I always listen to mishary, I always do the listen and read thing, but my real problem is the focus. I try and try to focus but my mind always wonders and goes into a weird state where I cant memorize.

Assalamu alaikum brothers and sisters, today I have come to ask for some help in memorizing this surah. About 2 weeks ago I joined a Islamic studies class and It's from 8am-5pm, for some reason though I'm having a difficult time learning this surah, I read for about 1hour and after that I realized that I hadn't even memorized 2 ayat. Was this surah as difficult for anyone else as it was for me? What I'm trying to do, Is learn the meaning of this surah, so that I dont loose my focus while reading. I would really appreciate it if anyone else can tell me if this surah in general is difficult or is it just me?

Even though, this goes against what brother younes said. I've decided to confront my dad, smooth talking him doesn't work AT ALL, he's the one who initiates everything, be it Friday prayer, or normal prayer. He's always telling me Islamic quotes, but still he doesn't pray when he doesnt want to and he is still cheating. So insha'Allah I will confront him.

Thanks for the help borther younes, I'll try and do this smooth. Oh and by the way, my background has 0% somali in it, my parents are arabs and so are most of my family. Me and my cousins grew up in america, anyways, good advice. I actually told him to take me to Friday prayer yesterday, but I think he's going to blow it off. Luckily for me, my oldest brother is coming home tomorrow (summer vacation). My dad totally think my brother is a trophy, so he might listen to him. All in all, again this site has given me GREAT help. I really appreciate it.

Assalamu Alaikum brothers and sisters, I'd like to first apologize for asking so many questions on this site. Alright so the problem, all of us muslims should love our parents right? Well one of my parents, my dad, has really lost his way. Back In ???-2006 he was the greatest dad you could wish for, he was so kind and religious. During those years me and him used to talk about how we would go to hajj together, and such. Now he talks about Tv shows, the news and just some little other stuff. Some time in 2006 he decided that he was a bit over weight, which he was, so we all supported him when he said that he wanted to loose weight. We kept on complimenting my dad, because we loved him. Than around 2007, when he had lost a good amount of weight, he did something unusually for a person like him, he started shopping...A lOT. I could swear he had more than 20 pairs of shoes at sometime and his closet was somewhat of a store. Then around 2008-2009 he started to go out really late at night, also somewhere in that time period, he stopped praying. Me and my brother got a bit suspicious, and started looking into his personal things (laptop, phone, etc) which we shouldn't have done. In the end of our snooping around, we found out and confirmed that my dad, was cheating on my mom. I don't want to get too detailed on the cheating part, but it was with more than 2 women. At first, I was beyond angry at him, at some point I actually wanted to kill him. I felt horrible that my dad, a father of 5, was cheating on my mom. What angered me the most was the thought of my 2 younger siblings growing up without a good dad. Now It is 2011, he's still here with the family, and my mom is aware of what he is doing. My mom being a nice person at heart, decided not to get a divorce, because she didn't want to be the one to break up the family. Recently a brother on this site known as Younes and some others convinced me to start praying (Allhamdulillah), so now I'm not angry at my dad, I feel pity for him. I know that he is a good man at heart, but he has lost his way. I don't want my dad to go to hell, yet I'm too afraid to confront him. I can't ask my younger sibling to help me in talking to him because I don't want to ruin things between them and our dad. My mom, has tried talking to him before, but he just wont stop. Insha'Allah I will pray for him, but I also want to confront him. If you guys have any advice feel free to post. P.S. things are completely awkward between me and my dad so PLZ help.

Thnks for all the help brother Younes, you've really affected my life. As-salamu alaikum =)

Also, should I completely stop playing video games? and watching anime? those are the 2 things that have made the the idiot I am today. How many hours a day should I spend between studies and Quran/Islam

First of all, thank you for the advice. I really appreciate it. I have another question, are duas in English accepted

Umm i posted this in the study section, waited forever and got no reply so I thought i should post it here Well, a brother here told me that for the time being I should focus on school and Islam. I'm an 8th grade slacker, I always find ways to procrastinate out of everything. I don't want to make Muslims look uneducated so I want to get smarter, and start studying. The only problem is, I've no clue where to start??? I'm now in 8th grade, these are the subjects i fail in, its not because I'm stupid or anything It's just that I don't remember the last time I've done a homework assignment. Math Science Language Arts/English Social Studies/ History and everything in between The only reason I've never gotten held back is because I get at least an average or higher score on national tests. Lets set that aside, does anyone know how I can actually start studying. I sorta think its too late because school is over in 4 days and I have a ton of missing assignments =[ I guess i can only blame myself, anyways what I plan on doing is study suppppppeeeeeeerrrrrrrrr hard and show my teachers how much I've improved next year. So If anyone has any Ideas I would really appreciate it. =) FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION!

Well here i am about to pray fajr, It's my first time doing wudu in a long time and it feels great. I'm now just going to focus on school, and Islam. Like the brother said, I should graduate first before doing anything. I think that everyone that prays, and follows the teaching of Islam is already carrying on the legacy of Islam. Peace to you all i need to pray =)

My new goals are, Start praying Do My Best in School [using large font size is not allowed] Also i want to be a good muslim, friend, and brother. I've noticed I've been mean to others lately.
-
-sigh- Well, that was quite a slap in the face, but I appreciate it. You know all my life I've wanted to carry on their legacy, and here I'm being told its not possible? I guess I'm going to have to create my own legacy by working my butt off. I sort of think I knew the answer, I was just in denial i guess. I Insha'Allah will try my best to start praying. About Somalia and the middle east I mentioned I guess I'm going to have to fix myself before fixing others. I can only hope to become 1/4 of what they were, and I would settle for that. Also I've changed the perspective of the way I view my name, the name Hussein is now somewhat of a goal for me, and also its motivation for me to be a good muslim. I appreciate everyone's help today. Thank you all =)
