Sheikh, regarding the discharge question in Shafi'i fiqh. Does that mean that I wont be able to pray if I have discharge (whether its sexual or regular) unless I renew my Wudhu and change my underwear? But how should I practice that if I am outside the house?

I believe women who have that issue, and can afford the cost, end up using daily sanitary pads.
Also, in Shafi'i Fiqh, if I recall correctly, they have rulings when if you had najasah that you can't get away, and prayer time is about to end, you pray with the best you can, then you repeat it when you're clean. Or something like that. Verify with a Shafi'i scholar because this is my memory from almost a decade ago when I studied Shafi'i mathhab.

I want to know about the madhab's opinion on Yazid bin Muawiyah? I see many sufis and shias stating that imam Ahmad used to curse him. Then other salafis says imam Ahmad did not curse him. Whats the truth

If he could've he would've. He was asked: what do you say about people who love Yazid. He said: Would anyone who believes in Allah and the hereafter love him!
His son mentioned Yazid to him once so the imam swore heavily at Yazid and called him names, but didn't curse him. So Abdullah said: how come you don't curse him? He said: your father was not a curser.
Numerous scholars have explicitly cursed Yazid, and those who didn't have implied it, like the Imam, and those who know what Yazid has done and still think he doesn't deserve to be cursed are curse worthy.

But does it matter if Apple deals with riba and etc? I mean does it effects the permissibility?

It does, scholars look into assets, liabilities, major stakeholders, revenue and expenses of public companies before they confirm or deny the permissibility of investment, this gets reviewed every quarter to all public companies.

Assalamu'alaykum ya syaikhi. Why you choose the hanbali madzhab? Syukran.

I've answered that before, please look up the previous answer gave a detailed explanation on how to choose a mathhab if you wanted to study Fiqh.

شيخ، سأل واحد (من الكفار) من الغرب في المناظرة، كيف تكون الحروف المقطعة معجزة؟ بوسع أي شخص جمع بعض الحروف والزعم أمام العامة أنها معجزة. ما الرد؟

أسأل الاستاذ @MaherAmeer

as Salamu alaiikum shaikh, am I allowed to have shares in the Apple Company? Or is that haram?

Permissible, but I can't help but note that you're four decades late on the apple stocks.

هل يغنيني جمع الجوامع - كحنبليٍ دَرَسَ عِدة كتب أصولية وحَفِظَه أحدها - عن كتاب مثل مختصر التحرير؟ لأني وجدت شيخاً يدرّس جمع الجوامع لا من يدرّس مختصر التحرير.

جمع الجوامع مرحلة متقدمة عن مختصر التحرير
إذا لم تدرس التحبير و الكوكب المنير، أو على الأقل أحدهما، ستفوتك مسائل لن تفهمها.
في النهاية ليس هناك افضل من ان تستأذن الشيخ وتخبره بحالك ولو أشار عليك أن تدرس معه فافعل.

There are three lessons in the Qur'an where Allah described the handling of the hypocrites to the news of accusations:
The first, is a future narrative, as the hypocrites are brought into Hell on the Day of judgement, God says they would be asked what led them to the Hellfire, one of their answers were: "we used to dive into any vein discourse along with the people who did so."
The second is when the accusations against the wife of the Prophet spread. God said "As you passed on [the news] with your tongues and said with your mouths that of which you had no knowledge and thought it was insignificant while it was, in the sight of Allah, tremendous.
And why, when you heard it, did you not say, "It is not for us to speak of this. Exalted are You, [O God]; this is a great slander"?
God warns you against returning to the likes of this [conduct], ever, [in future accusations] if you should be believers."
The third is when the rumors about the eminent defeat of Madina began to spread during the siege. Here, God says:
"And when news comes to them about [public] security or fear, they immediately spread it around. But had they referred it back to the Messenger or to those of authority among them, then the [scholarly] ones who [can] draw deductions from it would have known [how to deal] about it. And had it not for the favour of God upon you and His mercy, you would have followed the devil, except a little."
These are three lessons from the Qur'an for the audience in times when accusations are broadcasted.
As to brother Nouman, I ask the Almighty that if he's innocent, He will find a way out for him, and humiliate the accusers, and expose anyone who rode the bandwagon of rumors out of gloat, envy or ignorance. And if he's guilty, then I ask Allah to guide him to repentance, heal the victims, and protect the Muslims from deviation and mass hysteria.

مش غريبة ان الحنابلة ليس منهم محدثين بوزن الشافعية مع ان امام المذهب امام في الحديث؟

وهو الامام أحمد مش مالي عينين حضرتك مثلا؟
نعم للحنابلة محدثين في كل زمان، بل لهم أحاديث مسلسلة بفقهاء الحنابلة كما للشافعية احاديث مسلسلة بفقهاء الشافعية، مما يدل أنه كان ولا يزال فيهم محدثون في كل عصر منذ الإمام رحمه الله.

Making the 6 harakaat madd in وَلَا الضَّالِّينَ is wajib?

It's waajib sinaa'ee, i.e. scholars of tajweed consider it wajib in tajweed; it's not a waajib in prayer.

I'm always worried about what's coming, I wish I can live at peace, I know I should put my trust in Allah and just keep going, but it's really hard to stop thinking, any advice?

Did someone tell you that putting trust in God meant you stop thinking?
You busy yourself with that which you were created for; your duties towards God, planning for your death and afterlife.
God says: O child of Adam, focus on My worship, and I shall fill your heart with content.
The Prophet said: whoever puts the afterlife as their [top] concern, God will bring their matters together, and place content in their heart, and bring the world before their feet in subdue. But however makes this world as their concern, God will scatter their matters away, and place poverty between their eyes, and they will not earn anything from this world except that which was already destined to them.

My wife is struggling with hijab. She wore niqab for years and now wears a scarf and hat sometimes revealing ears and neck if careless at times. I have tried advising her but she doesn't take it well. I want the best for her and am willing to be patient but I fear for my own accountability.

Every utensil overflows with that which is already inside. The desire to remove the Hijab is just the tip of an iceberg. This needs a long sit down, realignment of life - and afterlife - goals, direction, and motivation. You are responsible before God on how she dresses when she leaves the house, so you need to deal with this situation wisely.

ASA. I want to know wheter we can beat our women or is that wrong? Many muslim elders justify it by the verse in surat Nisaa. I think their interpretation may be wrong bcz many of them dont read tafsir or study Quran. You, however, have studied Islam under shuyokj. Can u tell us about the beating.

First reaction: gif.
Calm answer: Alaikum assalam, that's wrong brother. God commanded us of treating our wives kindly and with excellence, even if we didn't like them.
The Prophet commanded us to treat our wives gently, and drew a parable about how fragile they are.
His last words before passing away to the Ummah was: The prayers! The prayers! And your womenfolk! [Meaning, take care of them].

Some Sufi brothers I know very well are trying to have me translate poetry written by Rumi from Farsi to English. From a purely linguistic perspective, the poetry seems very questionable. Do you know anything about his work, or if it is advisable for me to continue translating these poems?

Don't, there's plenty of blasphemy in his works.

Assalamualikum Sheikh Majed.. I now have a problem.. My father put some money in my bank account and there's interest on the money.. so what is the best thing to do to get rid of that interest? Also my dad thinks interest is okay. So I am really confused right now.

Get that money out, and put it in a place where it's at least not used in prohibited means.

When one makes wudhu, does he have to wipe his head all the way to the back and the bring it back to front again? Or is one wipe to the back enough?

It's encouraged to do it both ways, but one way suffices.

Shaikh, I woke up late for Asr and had to pray in the last few minutes. After I made wudu and started prayer I found that I had a piece of dough stuck in the back of my gums (around the size of a tic tac). I didn't have time to redo my wudu so I just finished my prayer. Should I make up my prayer?

Yes.

Salam Shaykh, is there any merit to the common anti-madhab argument "a madhab should be followed until a clear hadith indicates otherwise."

That's a rule in every mathhab.
Some people likes to think that hadeeth appeared from no where, centuries after the mathaahib were formed.
The mathaahib were formed and structured and settled upon those clear hadeeths, what's not included in the mathhab is because, 90% of the time, it's not an explicit proof.
