• Question: Does the date for menstrual menses change, and how is the increase calculated ?
If the bleeding lasts no less than(24) hours, but doesn’t exceed (15) days, and the purity interval between the two menses is no less than (15) days, then it is menstruation even if the date of menses changes, or its duration increases.

• Is it permissible for a Muslim woman to wear trousers at home?
Is it permissible for the man to put on revealing clothes? Answer: It is impermissible for the man to put on revealing clothes that show his Awrah(private part) which is between his navel and knee, and exercising modesty is better.

• What is the ruling on praying while wearing shoes?
All perfect praise be to Allah The Lord of The Worlds, and may His peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon all of his family and companions. There is no harm for a Muslim to pray wearing shoes or slippers so long as they are pure, since a man asked Anas Ibn Malik "Did the Prophet (PBUH) use to offer the prayers with his shoes on?" He said, "Yes." Moreover, Ibn Rajab (May Allah have mercy on his soul) said(What means):" Performing prayer wearing slippers/shoes is permissible according the majority of the Muslim scholars." [Fatih Al-Bary,V.2/P.274]. And Allah knows best.

• What is the ruling on a Muslim who slaughters an animal while being in a state of Janabah(ritual impurity)?
Slaughtering is permissible for the ritually impure man and the menstruating woman because ritual purity isn`t a condition for the validity of the slaughtering. Moreover, it is permissible for the uncircumcised person to do the slaughtering as well.
