What is halal lifestyle according to Islam?
Well to begin with, meat must be halal for a Muslim to eat it. This means the animal must have been slaughterd according to Islamic guidelines after having proclaimed the name of God in the process. This excludes any meat from a pig as this is completely prohibited.
This also applies to any other food products which used animal by products in the process. In particular sweets with gelatin in them are most likely not to be halal. However there are some which are and will most likely to contain the halal association logo on the pack.
Another aspect is ensuring that your clothing and appearance is modest and coincides with the Qurans expectation. For women, in the presence of men who are not of immediate relation to her must cover up so that only her face, hands and feet are visible. For men they must cover at the very least the area between their navel and lower thigh.
Overall a halal lifestyle is abiding by the quran, following Muhammad (sws) hadiths and sunnahs, praying five times a day, and keeping up awareness of Allah.

Are women's voices haram in Islam?
It took 23 years for the rules of Islam to be introduced. It is a mistake to deal with those events that took place before the âyat commanding (women) to cover themselves was revealed and thus to consider it mubâh [permissible] for them to talk to nâ-mahram men. Similarly, drinking alcohol had not been a sin before it was forbidden. By instancing the past events that took place, can we say, "Drinking alcohol is mubâh because it was drunk during our Prophet's time, which was termed the Asr-i-Sa'âdat [Era of Happiness]"? In the same way, by giving the cases in former prophets' religions as examples, is it said, "See, it is permissible (for men) to talk to women"? In the religion of Hadrat Âdam ('alaihissalâm), it was permissible to marry some people who are now harâm to marry. Afterwards, that permission was lifted. Is it proper to give then rules as examples for present events?
Jâriyas' [non-Muslim female slaves captured in war] singing songs cannot be put forth as an example for free women. When Hadrat 'Umar (radîy-Allahu 'anh) recommended decreasing the amount of mahr, an old woman behind the curtain, in an act of objection, recited the 20th âyat of Sûrat-un-Nisâ', which reads: "Don't take anything back from the wife you have divorced, even if you gave her loads (of gold as mahr)." Hadrat 'Umar did not object to that woman.
[mahr: according to Islam, the mahr comprises things like gold, silver, banknotes, or any kind of property or any kind of benefit that is given by a man to the woman he is to marry.]
Some heretics claim, "This event shows that a woman's voice is not harâm." But they do not explain that the woman behind the curtain was old; an old woman's voice is not harâm. Some rules which are permissible for old women may not be permissible for the young ones.
Heretics also utter the following:
Hadrat Âisha (radîy-Allahu 'anhâ) narrates:
On the Day of 'Iyd [Eid], two jâriyas were singing gallantry poems by playing the tambourine. Rasûlullah (sall-Allahu alaihi WA sallam) lay down on his bed and turned his face to the other direction. Later, my father (Hadrat Abû Bakr) came in. When he scolded me by saying, "How on earth are the Devil's whistle and sound in the presence of Rasûlullah?" Rasûllulah stated, "Do not interfere with them! Every nation has its own eid, and this is our eid." When my father was busy with something else, I motioned the jâriyas away, and they left the house.
Adducing the mentioned event to support their claim, heretics say that it is permitted for women to sit together with men, to play musical instruments, to sing songs, and to let their voices be heard by men.
Now let us analyze the statements above:
1. Those who were singing gallantry poems were jâriyas, not free women. It is not a sin for jâriyas not to cover their hair, arms, and to let their voices be heard by nâ-mahram men. It does not befit a Muslim to say that these, by assuming jâriyas as role models, are also permissible for free women.
2. Gallantry poems and songs and mahtar marches (Ottoman military marches) are permissible. This does not mean that other kinds of songs are permissible as well. Songs and ballads can be sung by playing the tambourine, but ilâhîs [nasheeds] cannot be sung with instruments because singing ilâhîs is an act of worship. It is not permitted to mix musical instruments into acts of worship. The term "the music of Tasawwuf" has nothing to do with Islam. In a house where Rasûlullah (sall-Allahu alaihi WA sallam) entered, small Black girls (jâriyas) were playing tambourines and were singing. They stopped singing and started lauding Rasûlullah. "Do not mention my name! Eulogizing me [reciting ilâhî] is an 'ibâdat. It is not permissible to perform 'ibâdat while making merry and playing," he declared. (Kimyâ-i Sa'âdat)
3. Hadrat Abû Bakr's saying Satan's whistlefor the tambourine shows that musical instruments are not permissible. Islamic savants state that what is permissible is only women's playing tambourines at wedding parties and on 'Iyds. That is, permissibility of women's playing the tambourine includes wedding parties and 'Iyds. It is not permissible at other times.
Some of the documents proving that women's voices are harâm are as follows:
Because Rasûlullah's blessed wives are the Mothers of Muslims, marrying them, that is, marrying our Mothers, is harâm. It is purported in three verses:
(O you who believe! It is not permissible for you to marry Rasûlullah's wives.) [Sûrat-ul-Ahzâb, 53]
(Rasûlullah's wives are Mumins' Mothers.)[Sûrat-ul-Ahzâb, 6]
(O wives of the Prophet! You are not like other women. Guard yourselves against violating Allah's commandments! Do not be soft and charming in your speech lest he in whose heart is a disease yearns. Always speak in a serious manner.)[Sûrat-ul-Ahzâb, 32]
In that âyat, while it is not permissible for the wives of Rasûlullah (sall-Allahu alaihi WA sallam,) to speak softly, how can it be permissible for other women? Seeing that there may even be people who have a desire for our blessed Mothers, may there not be people with such a desire for other women?
As it is not permissible for women to let their voices be heard by nâ-mahram men without necessity, so it is not permissible for women to look at them.
It is purported in an âyat:
(Tell, also, the Believing women to guard their eyes[from looking at nâ-mahram men].) [Sûrat-un-Nûr, 31]
The following are purported in pertinent hadîth-i sharîfs:
(It is harâm for men to look at women and for women to look at men [with lust].) [Tabarânî]
(When you see a nâ-mahram woman, turn your face away from her.) [Abû Dâwud]
(It is harâm to listen to a singing woman and to look at her face.) [Tabarânî]
(It is the fornication of the eyes to look at nâ-mahram women.) [Bukhârî]
Umm-i Salama (radiy-Allahu 'anhâ), our blessed Mother, narrates:
When we were with the Messenger of Allah, Ibn-i-Umm-i-Maktûm (radiy-Allahu 'anh) asked for permission and came in. When the Messenger of Allah saw him, he said to us, "Withdraw behind the curtain!" When I said, "Is he not blind? He will not see us," the Messenger of Allah answered, "Are you blind, too? Do you not see him?" That is, he meant, "He may be blind, but you are not." (Tirmudhî, Abû Dâwud)
It is purported in an âyat:
(When you ask Rasûlullah's wife for anything you want, ask them from behind a curtain.) [Sûrat-ul-Ahzâb, 53]
Just as it is sinful to look at nâ-mahram, so it is sinful to talk them. It is purported in two hadîth-i sharîfs:
(O you women! Talk to only your mahrams; don't talk to your nâ-mahrams.) [Râmûz, Ibni Sa'îd]
(He who talks to a nâ-mahram woman lustfully will be tortured in Hell for each word.) [R.Nâsihîn]
Because it is not permissible for women to speak loudly or softly and to let their voices be heard by nâ-mahrams, it is not permissible for them to say the adhân and the iqâmat. (Radd-ul-mukhtâr)
A young woman must not greet nâ-mahram men and must not say anything to a man who has sneezed. If she is said, she does not respond. (Hamawî's Commentary to Asbah)
It is harâm for women to let their voices be heard by nâ-mahram men. Some scholars state that when the necessity arises it is permissible for women to talk to nâ-mahram men gravely and seriously as much as necessary, but it still is not permissible for women to talk to them more than necessary. (Tazkiya-i Ahl-i Bayt)
Sounds of musical instruments and voices of women are not simâ', but ghinâ', and they are harâm. (Durr-ul-Ma'ârif)
[simâ': a voice without instrumental music is called simâ'; ghinâ': a human voice accompanied with instrumental music is called ghinâ' (that is, music)]
Allahu ta'âlâ prohibits women from talking to nâ-mahram men softly. (Maktûbât-i Rabbânî, vol. III, p. 41)
It is gravely sinful for women to go out with bare head, hair, arms, and legs, to let their voice be heard by nâmahram men without necessity, to sing to them, to let them hear their voices by reading Qur'ân al-karîm or by reciting the mawlid or the adhân. Women are permitted to talk to nâmahram men seriously in a manner that will not cause fitna when there is necessity such as buying and selling. (Targhîb-us-salât, Hadîqa, Endless Bliss)
The right anwser is: it's haram.
The Messenger of Allaah (peace be upon him) said:
“Among my ummah (nation) there will certainly be people who permit zinaa (adultery), silk, alcohol and musical instruments…†(Narrated by al-Bukhaari ta’leeqan, no. 5590; narrated as mawsool by al-Tabaraani and al-Bayhaqi. See al-Silsilah al-Saheehah by al-Albaani, 91).
This hadeeth indicates in two ways that musical instruments and enjoyment of listening to music are haraam. The first is the fact that the Prophet ( be upon him) said: “[they] permit†which clearly indicates that the things mentioned, including musical instruments, are haraam according to sharee’ah, but those people will permit them. The second is the fact that musical instruments are mentioned alongside things which are definitely known to be haraam, i.e., zinaa and alcohol: if they (musical instruments) were not haraam, why would they be mentioned alongside these things? (adapted from al-Silsilah al-Saheehah by al-Albaani, 1/140-141)
Shaykh al-Islam (Ibn Taymiyah) said: This hadeeth indicates that ma’aazif are haraam, and ma’aazif means musical instruments according to the scholars of (Arabic) language. This word includes all such instruments. (al-Majmoo’, 11/535).
Most Islamic authorities argue that using amulets like "tabiz" for protection from evil spirits is a form of sorcery and folk tradition that is not related to Islam and not permitted in Islam. Regardless, these folk traditions persist.
Is having bath with wife haram?
Not haram so far in private just between wife and husband and so far they both accept and like it.
Why is horse meat haram in Islam?
Horse, Donkey are absolutely haram in Islam..
Let me explain you clearly..
In Islam animals are halal if and only if they satisfy two conditions.
1) Regurgiating Animals(Animals who pour back partially digested food from stomach, especially to cast up).
2)The Animals legs sole(feet) should be in such a way that the hoof should have been divided into two parts, i.e., in the form of V-shape.
But in case of Horse and Donkey, the 1st condition is satisfied whereas it doesn't satisfy the 2nd condition of horse shoes, were the horse legs sole is not in the form of V-shape, i.e it is not divided into two parts.. Thus Horse & Donkey is Haram.
Similarly, Pig is haram in Islam, because the 1st condition in case of pig is not satisfied, that is Pig doesn't Regurgiate the food from its stomach.. But point to be noted is, the pig has legs sole(feet) similar to cow, goat, camel in which the hoof is divided into two parts. It satisfies 2nd condition, but the pig doesn't satisfy the 1st condition.

Yes. Islam lays stress on earning by Halal means. Insurance is a kind of lottery. How can one guarantee another man about his life?

The importance of the Beard in the words of Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam):
(1) The Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) said "I have no connection with one who shaves, shouts and tears his clothing e.g in grief or affication"
- Reported by Abu Darda (R.A.) in Muslim, Hadith no. 501
(2) The teachings of Ammar Bin Yaasir, Abdullah Ibn Umar, Umar, Abu Hurairah and Jaabir (R.A.), they all indicate that they All used to keep their beards that were one fist length or more. Jaabir (R.A.) had said: "We used to grow long beards and only during Hajj and Umrah did we trim them to the required length (i.e. fist length)."
(3) Abdullah Ibn Umar (R.A.) relates that: "He who imitates the kuffar (non-believers) and dies in that state, he will be raised up with them on the Day of Qiyamat (Judgement)."
(4) The Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) says: "Trim closely the moustache, and let the beard flow (Grow)."
- Narrated Ibn Umar (R.A.) in Muslim, Hadith no. 498
(5) "Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) ordered us to trim the moustache closely and spare the beard" says Ibn Umar.
- Muslim, Hadith no. 449
(6) The Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam)said: "Act against contrary to the polythesists, trim closely the moustache and grow the beard."
- Reported by Ibn Umar (R.A.) in Muslim, Hadith no. 500
(7) Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) said "Trim closely the moustache and grow the beard."

Shaving and shortening the beard is the action of non-believers (Kufar).
Imam Ghazzali (RA) says: "Know that the key to total bliss (Saadah) lies in following the Sunnah and in emulating the life of Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) in all that issues from him, and in all his doings even if it concerns the manner of his eating, rising, sleeping, and speaking. I do say this relation to rituals in worship only because ther is no way neglecting the Sunnah reported of him in such matters - but what I say includes every aspect of his daily life."
in the Holy Qur'an, Allah told Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) to say:
"Say: "If ye do love Allah, Follow me: Allah will love you and forgive you your sins: For Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful." (Quran 3:31)
The daily recitation of a band of angels of Allah is "Holy is the Being who adorned men with beards and women with braids" (Takmela e Bahr al Raiq, Vol. 3, p. 331)
Allah Ta'ala says in the Holy Qur'an: "And when the true believers are called to Allah and His Rasul (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) [to accept and practice the law and commands of Allah and His Rasul (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam)] that he may pass judgment upon them, their ONLY reply is 'We hear and obey.' Such men shall surely prosper." (24:51)
