Does an embryo which has had a soul put into it, but is stillborn, go to Jannah? If so, isn't it unfair how they get to go to Jannah easily with no test in this life unlike the rest of us?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Hadeeth states the infants of Muslims who die, will be looked after by Sara wife of Prophet Ibraheem. Those who were not tested in this world will be tested in the Day of Judgement and get their future accordingly.

Are the pure souls of Ahlulbayt (as) present in every Majlis or Milad ceremony though we do not see them? If so, are there any traditions to support this claim?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Yes. This fact is confirmed by many most authentic  narrations which can be found in many books including Jaami' Al- Ziyarat by Ibn Qolawayh which is one of the most authentic books.

When the Quran speaks of Allah (swt) breathing into Adam (a) of His spirit what does it mean? Is the soul a creation of God or something from God? Is there a distinction?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Soul is created by Allah and gifted to us as a bounty from Him on us. Soul is never part from Allah (SWT). Nothing at all can be like Allah or part from Him.

I receive gifts, mostly eatables such as chocolates, from my aunt who does not pay Khums. Will it have any affect on my inner soul directly or indirectly if I eat them?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

You are not responsible for the Khums of the gifts received by you. You can eat the eatables. If it remains with you for a full year unused fully or partly, you will be responsible to pay the Khums of the remaining after full year if anything remains unused.

Wassalam.
