Forgiving vs. retaliating against wrongdoer
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu. Shaykh, my question is with regards to revenge/forgiveness.

Falsifying date to avoid paying penalty
Nearly 15 years ago, a person rented a house from a company, and the agreement was to give four weeks notice before leaving, and otherwise they would have to pay one month's rent.

Warning people about cheaters is not backbiting
Assalaamu alaykum. We have come here in India for medical treatment, and my father was explaining his problem and treatment until it reached the point of gossip.

I trust the religious.. More

Definition of evildoing and sinning openly
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu. Can you explain what evildoing is and when a believer becomes an evildoer? As for the hadith which says that Allah will not forgove a person who sins openly; does this mean that he will surely be thrown into the Fire, or may Allah forgive him if He wills and is that just a warning from the Prophet,..
