I have a friend who works in Subway which means he handles meat and pork and stuff. He wears gloves so is that job firstly permissible and secondly does it effect his wudhu or anything like that?

It is not permissible for a Muslim to handle any pork products or work in a position that promotes pork products.
God said: "Support one another towards good manners and righteousness, and do not support one another towards sins and transgression, and be cautious of God. Indeed, God has a severe punishment."
Pork is prohibited for Muslims, Christians and Jews. The prohibition is stated explicit in the Torah, Bible and Qur'an. Pigs are the filthiest mammal God created, it eats the feces and dead corpses of its own family and of other animals.
What's the story with subway questions these days, I'm going to consider charging them for advertisement on my page.
If you're in Ottawa, I know three halal restaurants that are currently hiring, pm me.

Assalammu'alaikum sir, i want to ask you about what should i do to be patient and discipline person. Because i can't wake up in the morning easily and i've seldom done tahajud. I don't know why. But from deep in my heart i want to have tahajud but i can't because i can't sleep less than 8 hours.

Either you don't really want to, or He doesn't want you to pray.
In both cases, check your sins in the daytime.

I was wondering if you could give me some tips Shaykh. To give you a background, I am in my teens, memorized Quran + basic texts of Tajwid (Tuhfa, Jazariyah). Currently reading the ten & studying Shatibiyya/Durra. In Fiqh: in Umdatul-Talib, In Nahw: Mutamimah, in Hadith: still on 40. Tips? Jzk.

I recommend with your fresh memory and age to focus on memorizing the following:
Hadeeth: mukhtasar ibn abi jamrah, and jami' aluloom.
Usool: Waraqaat
Uloom Qur'an: zamzami
Seerah: alurjoozah almee'iyyah
Aqeedah: tahawiyya (study with it the explanation) by ibn Abi al'izz
Uloom hadeeth: study nukhbatul fikar
Hanbali Fiqh: annadhm aljaleyy.
You can finish all of this in 2 years inshaAllah.

How many intentions can be combined for fasting on the same day? Can I fast from thursday to monday with the intention to make up fasts, because it's sunnah, it's muharram and the day of ashura (plus day before and after that)?

There are primary and specific intentions, such as fasting Ramadan, Arafah, Ashura, etc.
And there are situational intentions, such as fasting in a sacred month, fasting on a Thursday, fasting in white days, fasting on a hot day, fasting a long day, etc. These are not primary intentions, you can fast an obligatory fast, or its make up on those days, and it's permissible, not because you're combining intentions, but because they're parallel intentions. One is primary and one is situational.
It is encouraged in our mathhab to plan an obligatory fast, like Ramadan makeup, on a day in which fasting has more special reward, like fasting on Monday or Thursday, or in a sacred month like Muharram.
As for fasting the day of Ashura with the intention of makeup Ramadan, that's a dual intention in our mathhab, and it would nullify the obligatory fast, so it wouldn't count as obligatory.
So you could still fast it as the Sunnah only and do the makeup another day, or fast it with the intention for a makeup and hope that this special day would make your make up fast greater in quality and reward, and more likely to be accepted, inshaAllah. That's my preferred opinion.

I have to make up prayers for the time I wasn't practicing. But I always fasted ramadan. Now I don't know if I have to make up those ramadans because I wasn't praying or maybe my fasting lacked in something. Or is this waswasa?

No, the fasting is an independent worship.

But with ta'heel I am atleast covering all the abwab whereas bidayat al abid is just ibadat. What do you think?

Yeah no it's definitely good. Just know you'll run into some sections you've never heard of, so you'll need a good teacher to explain them.

What is the ruling on marrying a girl who doesn't pray yet? Maybe some would say "the ruling is that you marry her, take her hand and pray with her" :D on a serious note, I'm in love with a girl but she only prays on eid and ramadan. I can't simply forget her as some advise... What is your advice?

If only you can hear yourself ya miskeen.
You will be resurrected in the status of those you love on the day of judgement.

Can I move onto Umdat talib if I finished sh. Amir bahjat's ta'heel? Or should I do bidayat abid before moving on?

Ta'heel is okay, but you will miss a few basic things.

انا نظري ضعيف جدا ومتقدم لخطبتي شاب ايضا نظره ضعيف جدا - لكن في المجمل هو شاب مقبول - خايفه الصراحه اوافق وبعدين مثلا ربنا يرزقنا باطفال يفقدو النظر خالص 😂 رأي حضرتك .

لو في قبول عند الطرفين فلا حرج.
بس خوفي الأكبر يطلعوا الأولاد مفتحين خالص ويضحكوا عليكوا انتو الاثنين.
ربي يحفظكم ويرزقكم لذة النظر إلى وجهه الكريم في الآخرة.

Have you memorised any Fiqh book and any Hadith book?

From cover to cover? A few books of hadeeth, aqeedah and Fiqh.
And studied a dozen books from scholars in Mecca, Medina, and Azhar, cover to cover, and got ijazas from them.
And studied on scholars in four different continents, and got over one hundred ijazas.
I could go on more and more, there's nothing that makes me sound more arrogant and snobby than talking about which scholars I learnt from and what books I have ijazas in.
But wallah, all of that, added to a BSc, MSc and PhD degrees have absolutely no value to me.
Because in any field, credentials (alone) are neither a true indication of excellence in knowledge, nor perfection in implementation.
Yes, a scholar recommends you another scholar, might be one way of ensuring good quality of where you learn from.
Being part of a reputable institution might imply that a faculty is worthy learning from.
But these ways are far from perfect. There's nothing more reliable as a measure for one's knowledge than assessing their own words.
Forget about my memorization or achievements. Don't aim to be like me, or any other living teacher. Aim for the stars; Muhammad - peace be upon him - and his companions.

قال ابن حزم في "الفصل في الملل والأهواء والنحل": اليهود والنصارى كفار بلا خلاف من أحد من الأمة، ومن أنكر كفرهم فلا خلاف من أحد من الأمة في كفره وخروجه من الإسلام. وحكى أيضًا القاضي عياض في "الشفا" الإجماع على كفر من لم يكفر أحدًا من اليهود أو النصارى، أو شك في كفره، أو توقف في ذلك.

السلام عليكم شيخ كيف اتقن اللغه الانجليزيه فضلا

الاتقان لو كان سهل مكانش أجره عظيم.
في واحد مجنون اسمه مالكوم جلادويل، بيقول حاجات كويسة أحيانا. بيقول أنك حتى تتقن أي علم أو فن حتى تصبح خبيرا به، تحتاج إلى ممارسته لمدة ١٠,٠٠٠ ساعة.
يعني ثلاث ساعات كل يوم لمدة عشر سنوات، تبقى زي الفل.
ثم عقب قائلا، ابقى قابلني بعد عشر سنين لو طلع الكلام غلط 😂

السلام عليكم انا شغال في شركه وصاحبها بيطلب مني انزل مناطق اجمع معلومات والمفروض أن المواصلات علي حسابه اذا كانت مواصلات عاديه او تاكسي ينفع اخد عربيتي واحاسبه بنفس ثمن المواصلات والتاكسي الي كنت هركبها ولا مينفعش

وعليكم السلام،
لا يجوز الكذب مطلقا، ويحرم أخذ ماله أو التربح من مصاريف الشركة بالكذب والحيلة.
تحسب كلفة التنقل بالسيارة تقريبا وتتفق معاه، كما هو الحال في أغلب دول العالم اللي فيها عدل وقانون. مثال للتوضيح:
١. لتر البنزين ٥ جنيه، ومحرك سيارتك ٢٠٠٠ سي سي، يعني قرابة ١٠ كيلومتر لكل لتر، يعني كل كيلومتر نصف جنيه بنزين.
٢. تغيير الزيت ٢٠٠ جنيه، وتغيره كل ٨٠٠٠ كيلو، يعني كل كيلومتر 0.025 جنيه زيت
٣. تغيير العجلات ٤٠٠٠ جنيه، وتغيرها كل ١٠٠,٠٠٠ كيلو، يعني كل كيلو 0.04 جنيه
وبعض المصاريف الأخرى التي تستهلك من سيارتك.
نقول تجوزا مثلا أن الكلفة هي ١ جنيه لكل كيلومتر، تعرض هذا الأمر على مديرك بتفاصيله، فإذا وافق، تدون الكيلومترات على العداد قبل وبعد كل رحلة من أجل الشركة، ويكون عندك دفتر في السيارة اسمه دفتر رحلات الشركة، تعطيه إياه آخر الشهر أو الأسبوع أو اليوم حسب الاتفاق.
وإذا لم يوافق، تلتزم بالباص أو التكسي وتحاسبه.

What is the appropriate/polite way to avoid/ refuse a handshake from a man in western countries?

Body language: keep a slightly father distance than conventional for a handshake, don't look at their hand as they're approaching, put your hand on your chest, in your pockets or behind you.
Most men are dumb when it comes to noticing gestures though, so after a second or two of reaching out and still being clueless, throw a slow curve ball, with a calm and confident voice, telling them you don't shake hands with men.
Move on quickly and get to the point. Think of it like you've pointed out to him that his fly is open. He's already embarrassed and a bit shaken, no need to dig over the topic longer than it needs.

Is it haram to generalize? Dont we find much generalizing from Allah, azza wa djall, about the jews, mushrikin, christians, a'arab and etc? (not the same one who asked about MCDonald's)

1. God can teach you good manners. He may pardon and guide criminals who killed or mocked His Messengers, that's a good thing for you to do to your enemies. But God isn't human, so He can't be your role model. God gets to do things you can't, because He is God. You're not.
He chose messengers to be human so they can be role models, because you need one. You can't always always say: if God can do it, so can I.
2. A fundamental rule with regards to Qur'anic sciences is that everything God says is universal and generic, unless another verse specifically specifies it. That's because the discourse is addressing all of humanity for centuries. While on the other hand, people usually speak to each other in specific terms reflecting their own human observations.
If you read corporate policies, you'll find all the rules are generic. Then you'll find a special section with exceptions, like the tiny footnotes in marketing.
When your colleague talks to you, every word they say, it is assumed they mean it specifically, because people don't walk around with a sheet of terms and exceptions. That's a fundamental difference, between Qur'anic discourse and human discourse. Plenty of disasters in our history originated because of a group took the words of Qur'an outside the context they were revealed for.
3. Finally, every group you mentioned above, and every generalization in the Qur'an, has an exclusion statement where the generalization isn't applicable. See, for examples from memory:
2:62
3:75
3:113
3:199
22:17
60:8
