Day Questions

When calculating the worth of the items that I own for the purposes of establishing the amount of khums due, do I take into consideration its value at the end of the khums year, or the price I paid for it?

Khums is payable on those items which have remained unused until the end of the khums year. The amount payable is based on the value at the end of the khums year.

My mother and father got divorced almost 25 years ago. I haven't met my father for many years now. He was very abusive towards my mother, an alcoholic, miser etc. and did not practice his religion. He has left my mother and my older siblings with traumatic memories. Our mother hasn't forbidden us from seeing him, but we have no desire to do so. We also fear that if we do keep in contact with him, he may take advantage and harm us or our mother. Is our isolation and lack of any contact with our father permitted in Islam?

It is obligatory to communicate with the father, even by the least ways of communicating, like talking to him over the phone or seeing him in main events. However, if one has a rational fear that even communicating with him in this minimal manner would cause him harm, then it is not obligatory.

Is it prohibited to sell magazines with pictures of women who are dressed improperly and are posing in sexually enticing and arousing ways?

If this involves propagating sins then it is impermissible.

My father bought for me a car as a gift, and he said that he paid khums from the money he used to purchase the car. Does this mean I am exempt from paying khums again on the car?

Whether your father paid khums on the money or not, the car is considered as an income for you. However, if you used it for your personal need then khums is not due on it. If you did not use it until the end of your khums year, then it is subject to khums.
