Those who are doctors, nurses, and teachers are considered Islamic professions as they serve humanity. Since all actions should be done for the sake of Allah, how can one perform other professions, like engineering, for the sake of Allah?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

The intention of serving people can be with doing any work in any field in the life. Everyone who is doing any service to people can keep such intention so that he will get the reward of serving people. Engineering is also a field of serving people and you can have the intention of serving people while you are working in any engineering field..

Is it permissible for me, as a born Muslim, to independently delve into profound research on Islam and explore Christianity, including purchasing and reading the Bible, with the intention of understanding our differences?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

You need first to understand your own religion and study its principles and foundations before delving in other religions. You must study properly under an able scholar and be sure and firm about your faith, then delve in other religions. This is to protect you from misleading propaganda of others.

How can I provide evidence of the validity of Islam and the Quran to non-Muslims, particularly atheists who don't accept the Quran and Sunnah?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Every human being must accept the reason and the intellect. Atheists must accept rational evidence. Quran and Ahlul Bayt are the greatest everlasting evidence that Islam is The True word of Allah. Quranic facts are been confirmed by the non Muslim scientists and oublished in the books and on the scientific websites. Simply search for Quranic scientific miracles on google, and you will see amazing facts mentioned in Quran before more than 1400byears and confirmed today by leading scientists in different fields of science. Same is with statements of the Pro0het (SAWA) and Ahlul Bayt (AS). Those who respect their intellect and use it properly, accept that Islam is the Real message from God, Almighty to guide all of us.

You can invite them to read some of these amazing facts in Quran and Nahjul Balaghah and guide them to some websites like Al-Islam.org.

Is it permissible in Islam to engage in a simple relationship, such as dating without any physical involvement, before marriage?
Zaid Alsalami

Bismihi ta'ala

Such practices are not a part of our Islamic culture, and we should preserve our Islamic ways as far as the method of courtship, interaction with opposite gender, and pursuing of marriage.

Getting to know each other, for purpose of marriage, is fine, as long as it is within the shar'i boundaries of Islam, with family approval, pure intentions and good moral conduct.

And Allah knows best
