Is his arm in a cast?

I am wondering is it haram to buy lottery? Even if your intentions are good to use the winning money in good ways?

Lately I have been having trouble with my qibla. I use an app to direct me to the qibla. However lately I realized that the qibla keeps changing after I make my prayer. I keep looking back at the app and it would give me a new direction every time I would go to pray. So my question is what is the most accurate way to get the correct qibla by using one of the qibla apps? I usually put it on the carpet.
I would suggest having two apps and test with both to see if the Qibla is the same or do they both give different readings.

Tell me how to avoid any Islamic discussions b/w Shia Muslims and Sunni Muslims ( as they are often controversial) about true facts of karbala all that.
If you would like to avoid these discussions with people due to the uncomfortable feelings it brings you then i suggest to politely tell people that you dont wish to discuss those matters and refer them to someone who can help them, such as a scholar at the local Islamic center.

I have a question regarding the limits of obedience to parents. my friend's father has been emotionally torturing her and physically and emotionally torturing her mother for XX years and i have been witness to the emotional trauma their whole family went through due to the father. now she has had enough and she stood upto her father. her father has stopped talking to her for the mere reason that she wanted to study further and this time she has made little efforts to apologize. someone told her that all her prayers will not be accepted by Allah SWT as her father is angry with her. she is otherwise a good and religious person but since she heard that her prayers are not being accepted, she does not pray that much as she believes her prayers won't be accepted. but after a lifetime of mental torture she is not ready to speak to her father again. my question is what are the limits to fathers' obedience? we must never be rude to them but they have a right to ruin their children's lives? is it true that even if a father who is unjust and forcing children to do his bidding just out of spite, if he is angry the prayers of children are not accepted?
She must be obedient to her parents as long as they are not asking her to disobey Allah. Prayer is accepted in the meaning that qadha is not liable, but what is indicated is that one does not receive the spiritual rewards for the prayers during this time period. In this case of him being abusive, I suggest she request from her marja what the limits she must observe in his regard.

How does one help loved one with connecting to Islam? They do not have interest.They find it boring to even watch lectures or even speak about religion.
Be a good example to them through your character. Teaching is not always by speaking but a lot of the time you can influence and teach through your actions.

With the scholars of the subcontinent, a lot of them narrate upon the manaabir that the veil of Sayeda Zainab was taken off as they were taken prisoner and their hair was visible to the public. we know that there was a museebah of the hijab, however was the veil only removed from the faces or from the hair too? are there any riwayaat whether strong or weak on this matter?
There is no historical evidence in the maqatil to verify this. Watch this and it will explain
