Day Questions

Could one buy goods from someone who sells Alcohol in his shop?

Yes, but it is better to choose shops that do not sell such prohibited items.

Is it permissible to marry a girl temporarily, who tells me that her parents allow her to date men, which essentially means that her parents allow her to have physical relationships with them? Can I consider this as permission from her father and engage in intercourse with her?

It is permissible to marry a virgin temporarily and consummate the marriage if her father made her in charge of her marriage.

I know that enjoining the good and forbidding the wrong is obligatory. Do I have to advise my family member or a friend if he does not take my advice?

It is obligatory to enjoin the good and forbid the wrong, as long as there is a possibility of causing a positive effect, or if there is a benefit that results from such an act, even if it is for a third party. Sometimes, pointing out that a certain act is a sin and one should refrain from it, or that a certain act is obligatory and must be done, will benefit other people who are present.

We know from verse (33:33) that the Ahlulbait are Imam Ali, Fatimah Hasan and Husain (peace be upon them) and we also know from the hadith the names of the twelve Imams. Can the other offspring of the Imam be considered amongst the Ahlulbait?

The verses and the narrations that are reported in the superiority of the Ahlulbait are specific to the five infallibles: The Prophet, Imam Ali, Fatima Al-Zahra, Imam Hasan and Imam Husain (peace be upon them all). Sometimes, one can understand that some religious texts include the rest of the twelve Imams (peace be upon them). This does not include the other offspring of the Imams.
