Is it obligatory to shave your head after umrah?
It is not obligatory for everyone to shave their head after performing Umrah, but it is a recommended and highly encouraged act for men. After completing the rituals of Umrah, men have the option to either shave their head (called halk) or trim their hair (called qasar). Shaving the head is considered a sign of humility and is a Sunnah (a practice of the Prophet Muhammad), while trimming the hair is also permissible, though shaving is preferred.
For women, it is not required to shave their heads. Instead, women are advised to cut a small portion of their hair, typically the length of a fingertip, as part of the ritual.
So, while it's not obligatory, shaving the head is a highly recommended practice for men.

There is no such authentic incident. Allah Almighty does not change His scheme of universe for such petty matters. These anecdotes are concocted just as symbols to persuade people to remain pious and virtuous. Hazrat Bibi Fatima RAU is the most beloved daughter of our beloved Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (SAW) and the Chief of the women of Paradise. She is already exalted beyond our imagination. She does not require such incidents concocted by our illiterate Khateebs.

Why don't Muslims pray sun-nah for asr prayer?
Answer:
There is a sunnah for Asr prayer - but only before; not after. The same holds true for Fajr prayer. There is not supposed to be any voluntary prayer, even, between the end of Fajr prayer and sunrise, and between the end of Asr prayer and sunset.
The reason is simply that the Prophet did not want people to pray too close to sunrise and sunset - because human nature is inclined to worship the sun - if prayers are done then. That is what people used to do for centuries; so Muhammad avoided it.
Is wearing a red nose haram for Muslims?
Wearing a red nose is not inherently haram in Islam. It may be seen as inappropriate in certain contexts or cultures, but it is not forbidden by Islamic teachings. Ultimately, it depends on individual interpretation and the intentions behind wearing it.
Hijra is important in Islam as it marks the migration of the Prophet Muhammad from Mecca to Medina. It is considered a turning point in Islamic history, symbolizing the establishment of the first Islamic state. The Hijri calendar also begins with the year of the migration (622 CE), making it significant for Muslims worldwide.
Belief in Almighty Allah (God) Sura Baqra -2. Aya 163: "And your Allah is ONE Allah, There is no god but He…." He is the Sole Creator, Sustainer, Provider, Helper and Ruler of the Universe. He has No Son, No Parents, No Off-spring. He is Omnipotent, Omni-Present, All-Knowing, All-Seeing, All-Listening. HE and He alone deserves worship. All powers lie in His Mighty Hands. He alone is the Master of the Day of Judgment. He has No Partner, No Associate, whatsoever. No one can understand Him completely. All honor, respect, admiration is due to Him. NO ONE can help anybody, not even his own self, if He does not wish. NO ONE can do any harm to anybody if he does not wish so. Even all the holy Prophets (May blessings of Allah Almighty be on them all) joined together can't create a blade of grass against His Will. There is Nothing like Him. He is Most Merciful, Most Gracious, Most Forgiving.
Now we come to Shirk and its kinds. Following are two kinds of shirk:
1. Shirk in the personality of Almighty Allah. Having this belief that there are other gods as well who deserve same respect and should be worshipped as Almighty Allah. This the greater Shirk.
2. Shirk in the Attributes of Almighty Allah. Having this belief that Allah Almighty has delegated some of His powers to Prophets or holy people. They can also exercise these powers independently as and when they like. Now you can think for yourself how shirk is contrary to the Belief in Oneness (Tauheed) of Almighty Allah.
Thus Shirk is the Unpardonable sin. It is the greatest Injustice to worship any other than Almighty Allah as He alone deserves it.

How do Muslims know which way to pray for Mecca?
Most mosques have a niche in the wall that indicates the direction of Mecca (this direction is known as qibla.
Otherwise, one can use a number of methods to determine the direction. For example, if you know a certain street runs north-south, you can use this to determine one direction, and thus find the qibla. If outside, one can use the location of the sun, stars, or even the moss on trees (in the Northern Hemisphere, moss grows on the northern side. In the Southern Hemisphere, it grows on the southern side.).
If one has no way of knowing the direction of qibla, one can just pick a direction and pray, because it is the intention that counts.
....................................
Answer
Qibla is the direction of the building of Ka'ba located in Mecca. Formerly the Qibla used to be Quds (Jerusalem). Seventeen months after the Hegira, at the third rak'at of the early afternoon or late afternoon prayer of a Tuesday in the middle of Sha'bân, Muslims were commanded to turn towards Ka'ba. According to Hanafî and Mâlikî Madhhabs, namâz will be accepted if the opening between the crosswise directions of the optic nerves includes Ka'ba. This angle is approximately 45°.
The Qibla is not the building of Ka'ba; it is its building plot. That is, that space from the Earth to 'Arsh is the Qibla. For this reason, a person who is down in a well, [under the sea], on top of a high mountain [or on a plane] can perform namâz in that direction.
It is permissible, even when performing the namâz that is fard, to deviate from the direction of Qibla when there is the fear of illness, enemy or thief, or by mistake, but it is a must to turn towards the Qibla when performing it on a ship or train.
At places where there is no mihrâb [it is a niche in the wall of a mosque that indicates the qibla] and where the Qibla cannot be found by calculation or with the help of the Pole-Star [a compass], true Muslims who know which direction the Qibla is must be consulted. We should not ask disbelievers, fâsiqs [people who sin frankly], or children. Disbelievers and sinners can be believed in mu'amalât (business transactions and social dealings), but not in diyânât [worships]. When you have no one with you who knows about the Qibla, you need not look for one. You must search for it yourself and then perform namâz towards the direction you have decided to be the Qibla. If later you find out that it was the wrong direction, you do not have to perform the namâz again.
If people who do not know the direction of Qibla perform namâz without looking at the mihrâb or asking someone who knows or trying to find out, their namâz will not be accepted even if they have found the Qibla by chance. But if they find out after the namâz that they have found the right direction, it will be accepted. If they find it out during the namâz, it will not be accepted. If they have inquired for the Qibla but have not performed the namâz in the direction which they have decided to be right, they have to perform it again even if they understand that they have found the right direction by chance.
Likewise, people who perform namâz though they think that they do not have an ablution, that their clothes are najs, or that it is not prayer time yet, and who find out later that their thought has not been correct, perform the namâz again.
[To determine the direction of Qibla, a rod is erected at a place taking sunrise. Or a key or a piece of stone tied to the end of a piece of string and let to hang loosely. At (the time of Qibla) read on the daily calendar, the shadow of the rod or the string shows the direction of qibla, as the Sun is overhead the direction of qibla. The Sun is on the Qibla side of the shadow.]

Answer 2:
You can easily locate the qibla direction of a certain place by means of the Qibla Locator program
The red line on the map indicates the qibla direction.
With searching feature, you can reach without difficulty the map of any city you desire. Clicking on (+) and (-) buttons, you can zoom the map in and out. Also, you can move the map toward the direction you wish with the help of the mouse. Moreover, it is possible to determine the direction of the qibla by zooming the map in until you see the street, even the house or workplace, you want. If you select the Satellite or Hybrid Map, you can find the building you are looking for more easily when you zoom in on the map.
In which direction do Muslims face when they pray?
Muslims direct their bodies and prayers towards the KAABA in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, but unlike the Jews who generally use cardinal directions to pray towards Jerusalem, the Muslims try to position themselves at the exact angle to best look towards Mecca.
This need to face at an exact angle has resulted in some theological disputes as to whether Muslims should look in the direction that forms the straightest line to Mecca on a Mercator projection or if they should look in the direction that would have the shortest distance over the planet's surface. This issue arises prominently in places that are very distant from Mecca in the northern hemisphere (like New York City or Tokyo). The straightest Mercator line would be to look southeast (from New York) or southwest (from Tokyo). However, because the Earth is curved, the shortest distance between the cities would be to look northeast (from New York) and northwest (from Tokyo).
What is the theory of wahdat ush shuhud?
Wahdat ush Shuhud means that in all objects the Light of Almighty Allah is transmitting. The being of all objects is due to the Mercy and Grace of Almighty Allah. Not object in itself is existing.
On the other hand some of the Sufies believe that Almighty Allah Himself is present in all objects. Hazrat Mujaddad Alf Sani refuted this belief and presented the theory of Wahdat ush Shuhud.
Why are criminals hanged for death before sunrise?
Answer 1
There is no law that requires that be the time of death. If it is adhered to at all, it may well be that it is done simply by 'custom.'
Answer 2
It is considered unsafe and unethical to hang a person in broad day light. It is rather safer to send him to the other world before sunrise.
