Am I allowed to go to the Masjid and mix with natural women as a transgender person who wears Hijab?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

If your genetic gender was female (XX) then you are a female. If your genetic gender was male (XY) then you are a male even if you have gone through surgeries to look like a female. If your genetic gender is male (XY),  you should avoid looking at females without Hijab because you are a male.

Are Muslims allowed to create a civil will wherein they can distribute their wealth as per their own preferences, rather than complying with the Islamic Sharia will mentioned in the Holy Quran?
Sayyed Muhammad Husaini Ragheb

Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullah

A person can only have a will(written or spoken) up to 1/3 of their wealth and if it goes beyond this limit, the legitimacy or efficiency of this will is dependent on the permission of the rest of the heirs, for example if one decides that all his house which is worth $1m be for one of the heirs, this will is only accepted up to $333,333 and the rest will be given to him unless the other heirs accept the will. Otherwise this person will have 1/3 of the house as a result of the deceased will and will also have a share in the 2/3 of the remaining according to inheritance rules.
How can the Ahlulbayt (a) hear our Tawassul and make Dua for countless Muslims daily?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Allah (SWT) makes His best servants know whatever He Wants them to know. All Muslims salute the Prophet (SAWA) in every Prayer by saying ASSALAMU Alayka Ayyuha Nabiyyu Warahmatullah Wabarakatuh. Allah makes the Prophet hear and respond to every one of them. Same way, we salute Al-Khidher الخِضر whenever we remember him as it in the Hadeeth which means that Allah Conveys our salutation to him. Ahlul Bayt (AS) are the best servants of Allah after the Prophet Muhammad (SAWA) and Allah Makes them know our Tawassul. Those who believe in the Absolute Ability of Allah according Quranic verses, understand this very easily.

'Wassalam.
