I have been uncertain about my Ghusl and consider repeating my Ghusl and keep questioning my fasts. What is the best course of action for me in this situation?
Zaid Alsalami

Bismihi ta'āla

You must completely ignore and dismiss these thoughts of doubt. The best course of action to rid yourself of waswasah, or developing waswasah is to dismiss these thoughts and ignore them, and never repeat what you have done.

And Allah knows best
Is there a question about the permissibility of intentionally traveling during fasting hours while performing Ziyarat in the last days of Ramadan, particularly on Laylatul Qadr, and how this affects the validity of one's fast?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

It is permissible to travel during the month of Ramadan as far as the travel is not for a sinful act like gambling, drinking alcohol, etc.

Traveling during the month of Ramadan does harm your fasting as far as you intend to keep Qadha of the missed days of fasting after the month of Ramadan.

There is no fasting during traveling but Qadha must be kept after the month of Ramadan.

In Wudhu, if I only complete the obligatory parts and skip the recommended actions, like rinsing the mouth and nose, while fasting, is my Wudhu still valid for prayer? Can you share the ruling according to all five Islamic schools of thought?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Yes, your Wudu is valid if you do the obligatory actions only and skip the recommended actions.

You can refer to Al0Fiqh A'lal Mathahib Al-Khamsah.

Is it permissible to take Homeopathy medicine for my lung issues (Asthma/COPD) 4-5 times a day without water while fasting?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Taking any material inside your body while fasting will invalidate your fast whether you take it with or with out water. If your doctors allow you to take the medicine after Iftar till Fajr, then you do so but if must take it during the day, then fasting will not be obligatory on you and you must then redo fasting when you are able to fast.
