If a menstruating woman stayed up all the night in the last ten odd number nights of Ramadan without praying but doing Dhikr and reading the Qur'an, is her Dua likely to get accepted?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Yes of course. Acceptance of every worship depends on the sincerity in the intention.

Menstruating female is allowed to perform all worship e.g. Thikr of Allah, Du'a, reading Quran (except the four verses of obligatory Sojood). She is not allowed to pray any Salah nor perform Tawaf around Ka'ba nor stay in Masjid.

How can we convince Christians that we Muslims believe in the Bible as an earlier scripture when it contains material that conflicts with the Quran?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

We believe in the original Bible which was revealed on Prophet Easa (AS), not the claimed different Bibles which were written by people.

Are we allowed to take a false oath by the Quran to save somebody’s life or honour?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Saving your life and/ or life of others is obligatory. If the only way to save life is taking false oath, then it might be permissible if there are no other Islamic reason against it.

Saving honour has many degrees which must be considered before replying this part of your question. We need to understand the real situation first, then reply can be researched according to Islamic rules.

There are many famous Qur'an reciters who are linked with the hierarchies of certain corrupt Persian Gulf kingdoms. Should we avoid listening to their recitations?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Those reciters who serve or support the wrongdoers or oppressors should not be encouraged. They go in their practice against the teachings of Quran which they recite and claim that they believe in. We should not promote the hypocrites. Those reciters who follow other sects are free and we respect their choice to follow their school of thoughts, but they should not declare their standing with the wrong against the innocent Muslims.

Wassalam.
