Day Questions

Does the women have to do ghusl after touching her husband’s penis or semen?

Merely touching the penis or semen of one’s husband does not obligate ghusl on the wife.

I live with my mother; I have not lived away from home without my mother ever. What does Islam say about living away from home?

Living with the mother is not obligatory, but you should communicate with her through available means and visit her when possible.

If both father and son earn for the family, who has to pay Zakat al-Fitrah? Is it sufficient for the father to pay on behalf of his son and others?

The obligation is on both of them to pay the Zakat for themselves, as well as those under their maintenance in proportion of the amount they earn. For example, in a family of five, the father may be earning more than the son, so the son may pay for himself as well as one other person, while the father pays for himself as well as the rest of the family. It is also valid if the father pays the Zakat for all the family.
