Removing unwanted hair from the chest and back is permissible for men, although it is undesirable and against proper manner. One should avoid it if there is no need. However, if there is a need, such as the wife dislikes it, then there is nothing wrong in removing the hair of chest.

The answer to your question is as follows:
Feeding on the occasion of a child’s birth to express one’s pleasure is allowed. But this is not called ‘birth day celebration’. Birthday is celebrated each year and this was not allowed in ‘Fatawa Rasheeiya’. Feeding on the day of a child’s birth has no relation with the birthday celebration of our time.

The answer to your question is as follows:
In this situation, the woman should wait until she is pure. However, if the days of Hajj started and she is still on her menses, she should go through all rituals except Tawaf. She must delay the Tawaf till she gets pure. Nevertheless, if she is still in menses and the departure time has arrived then she should wear sanitary pads and perform Tawafe Ziyarat which is Fard. Doing Tawafe Ziyarat in the state of menses is a Jinayat, so she must also slaughter an animal, such as camel or cow etc. in the Haram premises. She should leave all other Tawafs. And there shall be no penalty upon her for leaving Tawaf.

The marriage was valid and it remains valid till date, but if the wife wants to separate from him, she can get divorce or khula from the husband. However, if the husband is not ready for divorce or does not accept Khula, she can consult a nearby Darul-Qaza for a better solution.

The answer to your question is as follows:
There is a difference of opinion about the prophethood and life of Hazrat Khidr (as), so it is difficult to make a definite decision. However, according to the preferred view, Hazrat Khidr (as) was a prophet. It is allowed to make dua to Allah with the wasila of an angel, a prophet and a wali. We couldn’t find any narration about asking the angels to pray.
