Salam I recently received a video which shows a man accused of rape ,being beheaded by a person with a sword, claiming that 'this is the correct way to punish according to Islamic Shariat'. Is such punishment correct for punishing rapists? Are we Shias allowed to behead them? What is supposed to be their punishment? Wassalam. Regards from India .

Walaikumussalam Punishment and enforcement of law and order it is the duty of the state and government.if we allow every individual can stand and enforce the law and order then this world become a horrible place. Islam means peace and another meaning is tasleem which means submission to the will of Allah. These people and these type of the people they are implanted in ummah their aim is to defame the Islam. Yes there is a ruling but there are the condition and only government and state has right to punish. And among those condition only one point it should be witness by 4 Aadil people and their statement should me same and they all must witnessed the rape which is really hard to prove. That video is absolutely against the Islamic teaching. Kindly do not share to anyone. May Allah guide them and keep us remain on right path. Aameen Wassalam Syed Abul Qasim Rizvi

Salam Many times when I pray namaz, i unintentionally make pronunciation mistakes. Then, sit down immediately while praying, say 'AllahoAkbar', break the namaz , and start the namaz again from beginning with new niyyat. Am i doing Wrong or sin?

Walaikumussalam You don't need to break the namaz You must read again for example said صراط المستقيم There was mistake then repeat the correct one. And concentrate in Namaz inshallah you will not mistake. Iltemas. E dua kHz

Salam. Me and my family make out often keep making sadqa for our safety, forgiveness of dead, and other similar things. We collect all the money in a box and then give the total big amount to the needy. My question- Can we give out the sadqa to the needy Non-Shias or ONLY the needy shias are supposed to receive to sadqa taken?

Walaikumussalam May Allah accept your sadaqah and protect you and your family and give barakah in your rizq.yes you can give to non shia also but give preference to shia. Try to give sadaqah as soon as possible to the needy person. Do not make delay in paying of sadaqah as per the ruling. Wassalam Syed Abul Qasim Rizvi

Is it allowed to chew a flavoured chewing gum which gives out little little taste while mixing with the saliva?

Walaikumussalam, While fasting not allowed. Wassalam

Assume, that in The monnth of fasting, Mahe Ramzan, my health was not good and I was unable to observe the fasts throught the whole month. And then I am unable to observe the fasts till the next Ramzan comes, due to ill health. Then I take out the required fidya(by food grains). My question:- Who am I supposed to give the fidya to? Is it to be given to Only shias(syed and khoja), or to non shias also I am allowed to give? And who is supposed to accept the fidya? Thanks

Yes you can give Fidya to any shai who is poor. Wassalam
