Does Islam forbid interest bearing loans?
No, this is nothing but a kind of usury which is strictly prohibited in Islam. changing the names does not change the fact. so, let the name be interest or whatever it's still usury & this is forbidden in Islam. Usury has many bad effects. for instance, it causes oppression, it increases the wealth of the rich & the poverty of the poor which leads to a damage in the economical system of the community due to creating a huge gap between poor & rich, it causes conflicts & hatred between people & it's enough that God, the Creator forbids it.
Only one example:
(Allah will deprive usury of all blessing, but will give increase for deeds of charity: For He loveth not creatures ungrateful and wicked).
Holy Quran,(2:276).
When is the exact day of hajj?
The Hajj takes place from the 8th to the 12th of Zul-Hijjah which is the last month of the Hijri calendar.

Can a Muslim woman remarry her husband she divorced?
Yes, a Muslim woman can remarry her ex-husband after the first divorce and second divorce. However, after the third divorce she can marry him again only after she got married and divorced from another man.
َQur'an says (Meaning English translation):
"Divorce is twice. Then, either keep [her] in an acceptable manner or release [her] with good treatment. And it is not lawful for you to take anything of what you have given them unless both fear that they will not be able to keep [within] the limits of Allah. But if you fear that they will not keep [within] the limits of Allah, then there is no blame upon either of them concerning that by which she ransoms herself. These are the limits of Allah, so do not transgress them. And whoever transgresses the limits of Allah - it is those who are the wrongdoers. And if he has divorced her [for the third time], then she is not lawful to him afterward until [after] she marries a husband other than him. And if the latter husband divorces her [or dies], there is no blame upon the woman and her former husband for returning to each other if they think that they can keep [within] the limits of Allah. These are the limits of Allah, which He makes clear to a people who know. " (2:229-230)

What kind of clothes that you like to wear?
I think you should be asking yourself what clothes YOU like, because those are the only clothes you should be thinking about wearing.
Even highschool guys, for the most part, aren't shallow enough to base whether they want to date someone on the clothes they wear, and the ones that are that shallow are just not worth going near.
What you wear should be an extension of yourself, something you feel comfortable in. More often than not if a guy likes you, he probably likes the clothes you want to wear or may not even be interested in materialism/fashion at all!
Different people have different tastes, you should focus on your own.

How did the Hindu and Muslim cultures blend together?
Muslim and Hindu cultures clashed based on various factors, the most dominate being religious practices concerning religious hierarchy, religious celebration, and most importantly the religious belief about who and what God is. Muslim and Hindu cultures were able to eventually blend together because the Muslim influence was forced upon the Hindu people with no options but to convert to Islam, be put to death, or pay the non-Muslim fees. In essence the two cultures were able to blend by the Hindu culture accepting the Muslim culture by force or by choice, as many Hindu people converted to Islam of their own personal choice.
