Is it permissible to use interest money to build a toilet

Question - Is it permissible to use interest money to build a toilet for one’s own use? I have received a substantial amount of interest from the bank, therefore I would like to know if I may use this money to build a toilet.

Answer - It is not permissible to use interest money or any other Haraam money for one’s own requirements. You may therefore NOT build a toilet with such money. You shall have to give the unlawful money to the poor without mak­ing any Niyyat of Sawaab. It is obligatory to eliminate all Haraam wealth in one’s possession.

Will parents be held responsible for their children on the day of judgement?

Question - Are we just responsible of our own actions on the day of judgement? Or we will be questioned concerning those who are under us? Answer - A person will be accountable for his actions as well as the actions of those under his care. The Hadith of Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam states that: عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ أَلاَ كُلُّكُمْ رَاعٍ وَكُلُّكُمْ مَسْئُولٌ عَنْ رَعِيَّتِهِ فَالأَمِيرُ الَّذِي عَلَى النَّاسِ رَاعٍ عَلَيْهِمْ وَهُوَ مَسْئُولٌ عَنْهُمْ وَالرَّجُلُ رَاعٍ عَلَى أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ وَهُوَ مَسْئُولٌ عَنْهُمْ وَالْمَرْأَةُ رَاعِيَةٌ عَلَى بَيْتِ بَعْلِهَا وَوَلَدِهِ وَهِيَ مَسْئُولَةٌ عَنْهُمْ وَالَعَبْدُ رَاعٍ عَلَى مَالِ سَيِّدِهِ وَهُوَ مَسْئُولٌ عَنْهُ فَكُلُّكُمْ رَاعٍ وَكُلُّكُمْ مَسْئُولٌ عَنْ رَعِيَّتِهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ Translation : 'Abdullah bin 'Umar: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) as saying: Each of you is a shepherd and each of you is responsible for his flock.

Can we pray Namaaz/Salah in front of a mirror?

Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim ! In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Question - Is it permissible to perform salah in front of the mirror? Answer - If a person prays with a mirror in front of him, his prayer is valid even if he is facing it and can see himself in it. But he has to lower his gaze and not look at it. He should keep away from it and from everything that may distract him during his prayer.  It is lawful, Salah will be valid. But it is better to cover it with a curtain so that you can avoid seeing the reflection of yourself or others in the mirror. Reference Links - Youtube.com Reference Links - Link
