The answer to your question is as follows:
The belief of Ahlul -Sunnat wal-Jama'at about the mothers of the believers is that they are the mothers of all the believers according to the Qur'an, they are the mothers of all the believers, and they are to be respected and honored as it is clearly mentioned in some ahadith. In Hadith it is mentioned about Hazrat Ayisha (ra) that she will be the wife of the Prophet (saws) in the paradise even.
في رواية الترمذي: «إِنَّ هَذِهِ زَوْجَتُكَ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ(سنن الترمذی ؛حدیث نمبر: 3880)۔
In the same way, when the Holy Prophet (PBUH) divorced Hazrat Hafsa, Jibreel Amin came and said that he should approach her because she is his wife both in this world and in the Paradise.
عَنْ أَنَسٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ طَلَّقَ حَفْصَةَ تَطْلِيقَةً، فَأَتَاهُ جِبْرِيلُ، فَقَالَ: " يَا مُحَمَّدُ طَلَّقْتَ حَفْصَةَ تَطْلِيقَةً وَهِيَ صَوَّامَةٌ قَوَّامَةٌ، وَهِيَ زَوْجَتُكَ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَفِي الْجَنَّةِ (شرح مشکل الآثار ،حدیث نمبر: 4615) عن هشام بن عروة، عن أبيه، أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم " طلق سودة، فلما خرج إلى الصلاة أمسكت بثوبه، فقالت: مالي في الرجال من حاجة، ولكني أريد أن أحشر في أزواجك قال: فرجعها وجعل يومها لعائشة رضي الله عنها(السنن الکبری، للبیہقی،حدیث نمبر:13435)
Ibn Katheer wrote that all the honored wives will be the prophet’s wives in the Paradise and will be with the Holy Prophet in the best position and status above all creations.
۔" ثم ذكر عدله وفضله في قوله: ( وَمَنْ يَقْنُتْ مِنْكُنَّ لِلَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ )، أي: يطع الله ورسوله ويستجب ( نُؤْتِهَا أَجْرَهَا مَرَّتَيْنِ وَأَعْتَدْنَا لَهَا رِزْقًا كَرِيمًا ) أي: في الجنة، فإنهن في منازل رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، في أعلى عليين، فوق منازل جميع الخلائق، في الوسيلة التي هي أقرب منازل الجنة إلى العرش " انتهى من "تفسير ابن كثير" (6/408) ۔
(2) All the Companions of the Prophet (saws) are destined to go to Paradise, this is the clear message given in the Qur'an and Hadiths, and this is the creed of Ahlus Sunnat Wal-Jama'at. God Almighty himself has approved them for Paradise; there shall be no iota of doubt because it is approved by Quran and Hadith, no one can deny it. For anyone other than them, these two things are not proven by the Qur'an and Hadith. (Aqaide Islam p. 168).
وَالسَّابِقُونَ الأَوَّلُونَ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَالأَنصَارِ وَالَّذِينَ اتَّبَعُوهُم بِإِحْسَانٍ رَّضِيَ اللّهُ عَنْهُمْ وَرَضُواْ عَنْهُ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُمْ جَنَّاتٍ تَجْرِي تَحْتَهَا الأَنْهَارُ خَالِدِينَ فِيهَا أَبَدًا ذَلِكَ الْفَوْزُ الْعَظِيمُ {التوبة:100قال أبو محمد بن حزم رحمه الله: ثم نقطع على أن كل من صحب رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم بنية صادقة ولو ساعة، فإنه من أهل الجنة لا يدخل النار لتعذيب، إلا أنهم لا يلحقون بمن أسلم قبل الفتح، وذلك لقول الله عز وجل: لا يستوي منكم من أنفق من قبل الفتح وقاتل أولئك أعظم درجة من الذين أنفقوا من بعد وقاتلوا وكلا وعد الله الحسنى. انتهى

The answer to your question is as follows:
If you know a person whose whole or major source of income is from haram, then it is not permissible to accept gifts from him. But if you have no knowledge about his income whether being haram or halal, then you can accept gifts from him and you are not obliged to check the source of his income.
Doing a job in a non-Muslim country is allowed. Government’s income maybe Halal and Haram for government itself, but for an employee whatever he receives from the government is his wage paid in exchange for his work.
As far as the Interest money is concerned it is Haram whether it is received from bank or other sources, whatsoever.

The answer to your question is as follows:
Kufr will be applied to the one who utters the words of Kufr from the tongue; in fact, it is not possible to know what is in the heart of the speaker, so the focal point of Kufr will be on the pronunciation of Kufr words. Therefore, unless the person repents, he will not be treated like a Muslim. He is obliged to go through the repentance and renewal of faith along with the renewal of the marriage if he is married.

If you have started doing a particular good deed, you should continue the same, else do take full care of your daily prayers, and work hard for your Halal living. Such a dream indicates that a good period of your life has begun, and you will do what will benefit you in the hereafter too. May Allah grant us taufiq to do good deeds and what that pleases Him!

The answer to your question is as follows:
It is Wajib (necessary) to proceed for Juma prayer after first Azan is called. Therefore, sleeping or doing any transaction that interferes in the process will not be permissible. Allah says in the holy Quran: O ye who believe! When the call is proclaimed to prayer on Friday, hasten earnestly to the remembrance of Allah, and leave off business; that is best for you if ye but knew! (The Quran, 62/9).
So, it is necessary on the first Azan (which is recited when the sun begins to decline) to leave off business and hasten to Friday prayer.
(قوله ويجب السعي وترك البيع بالأذان الأول) لقوله تعالى {يا أيها الذين آمنوا إذا نودي للصلاة من يوم الجمعة فاسعوا إلى ذكر الله وذروا البيع} [الجمعة: 9] (البحرالرائق ۲/۱٦٨)

صورت مسئولہ میں شوہر اپنے پہلے دھرم پر ہی ہے اور اسے اسی پر رہنے کے لئے اصرار و ضد ہے اور بیوی مسلمان ہوگئی تو وہ نکاح ختم ہوگیا۔ اس پہلے شوہر کےساتھ بیوی بن کر رہنے کی اسلامی اعتبار سے کوئی گنجائش نہیں ہے۔ اور اب کسی مسلمان سے شرعی طریقہ پر نکاح کرنا چاہے تو کرسکتی ہے۔ کذا فی الفتاوی۔ تاہم کسی اچھے عالم دین سے مل کر اگر مسئلہ اچھی طرح سمجھ لیں تو بہتر ہے۔

The answer to your question is as follows:
It is recommended for a person who intends to sacrifice, not to cut his hair and nails from the sighting of the moon of Dhul-Hijjah until he performs the sacrifice. The prohibition mentioned in the hadith is only about cutting hair and nails. So, there is no problem in having physical relations with one's wife.
عن سلمة رضي اللّٰہ عنہا أن النبي صلی اللّٰہ علیہ وسلم قال: اذا دخلت العشر، وأراد أحدکم أن یضحي، فلا یمس من شعرہ و بشرہ شیئاً۔۔۔ قال العثماني التھانوي: نہی النبي صلی اللّٰہ علیہ وسلم من أراد التضحیة عن قلم الأظفار وقص الشعر في العشر الأول، والنہي محمول عندنا علی خلاف الأولی لما روي عن عائشة رضي اللّٰہ عنہا أن النبي صلی اللّٰہ علیہ وسلم کان یبعث بہدیة، ولا یحرم علیہ شیء أحلہ اللّٰہ لہ حتی ینحر ہدیہ۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔ (اعلاء السنن: ۱۷/ ۲۶۸۲۶۴، مفصلاً، کتاب التضحیة، باب ما یندب للمضحي في عشر ذي الحجة، ط: أشرفیة، دیوبند)
قال ابن حجر: ومن زعم أن المعنى هنا التشبه بالحجاج غلطوه بأنه يلزم عليه طلب الإمساك عن نحو الطيب ولا قائل به اهـ.وهو غلط فاحش من قائله ؛ لأن التشبه لا يلزم من جميع الوجوه، وقد وجه توجيهاً حسناً قي خصوص اجتناب قطع الشعر أو الظفر'. (مرقاة المفاتيح شرح مشكاة المصابيح (3/ 1081)
