Question:
Salam Alakium If a person says he has doubt about Allah (SWT) shall he then be regarded as tahir? He is really confusing because he says he is muslim but has a lot of doubt. He was one day joking about that sometimes he believes and sometimes not. Wa salam
Answer:
Doubts can come to many Muslims but they remain Muslims unless they clearly deny the Faith in Allah.
Such person needs to be guided and helped to get out of the doubts. Help him to meet good scholars or gift him useful books.

Question:
Salam alakium I am a law student in a Europe. I would like to know if it is permissible to work as a student assistant in a law firm? My job consist in improving litigation, preparation of notes and preform case processing and legal investigation. What about when I become a lawyer, is it then permissible to take the cases of my clients and try win them? I have read the following the website of Sayyed Sistani (May Allah prolong his life): Question: Is it permissible for a holder of a law degree to become a lawyer in a non-Muslim country upholding the laws of that country, and taking cases of non-Muslims since his purpose is to attract cases irrespective of their nature? Answer: If it does not involve violation of a right or lying or other forbidden acts, there is no problem in it. What constitute in a violation of right is really hard to determine if you are not an sharia expert? Wa salam.
Answer:
Wa Alaykum Assalam wr wb
If your legal work whether as a trainee or lawyer etc does not involve violation of a rights of innocent people or lying or other forbidden acts, there is no problem in it.
