109 Imam Shafi (R.A) states that when a man touches a woman the Wuzu break, where as Imam Abu Hanifa (R.A) states that the interpretation of this is not merely a touch of say hands but is referred as sexual touch. Does this mean that if a husband kisses his wife (not sexually i.e.: a peck) does the Wuzu break ?

105 I have been present at various funerals and have noticed that at the time of ghusl of the deceased, people are indulged in worldly gossip. Is this allowed or not? In Pakistan I have personally seen that when a person dies , the locals comb the hair, cut the nails, and in some case trim and colour the deceaseds beard. Woman who pass away have mehndi applied to their hands, feet and hair. Does Shariah allow this?

98 In Pakistan there is an understanding amongst the villagers that, if a husband is illiterate in Arabic but the wife can read the Quran, the husband will not learn how to read Quran from his wife as they believe that in doing so the wife will become his usthad (teacher). In doing so they will not be able to honour the respect for her as a teacher and a wife.
