Question:
In western countries many Muslims celebrate the Mother's day. What is the rule of Shariah concerning this celebration?

Why is Allah always reffered as 'He'? I ask this because my teacher in class raised this issue.
 

What is sincerity, and what are the benefits of sincerity?

What is the ruling on one who delays Hajj for no reason when he has the means and is able to do it?

What are the Virtues of the Day of Arafaah?

What are the most important rights that are respected in Islam?

I hope you can give me some examples of good deeds that we can do every day to increase our hasanaat.

On some trips there is a Qur'aan reading program, and they divide the people into separate circles (halaqahs) and someone who reads Qur'aan well to correct any mistakes. Is there anything wrong with this?

What is the definition of gheebah and what is the ruling on it?

I am from a Muslim background, but I never used to offer the obligatory prayers and even when I tried to pray once, I did not do it right. In other words I did not prepare to do it in the proper manner. I ask Allah to forgive me. I heard that the one who does not pray is a disbeliever and is not a Muslim, but whoever offers the five daily prayers, or one or two of them and omits the rest, is regarded as a Muslim. Also, I did not pay zakah on my wealth, but for at least two years I have completed the fast of Ramadan, and I intend to continue doing so. I want to learn how to pray and make it part of my life, along with other acts of worship. 

Is it obligatory for me to pay zakah for all these many years (when I did not pay it), and to make up the days that I did not fast at the time when I was not praying? 

Please note that I have now reached the age of thirty-one years; perhaps you will understand that this may cause me a great deal of hardship; to ward off that hardship, can I start over? Will Allah forgive me if I do that?
