Performing Hajj on behalf of Imam (a.s.) or sending
someone as a proxy for Imam (a.s.)

This is customary among the Shias from the past
centuries. Many traditions have clearly stated the
recommended nature of these good deeds. Also the
traditions that speak of doing good to a believer, also apply
in such a case and support this custom.
Scholars have recorded numerous traditions that praise
the performance of good deeds on behalf of believers. A
couple of such traditions are presented below:
1- Ibne Miskan narrates from Imam Sadiq (a.s.) in the
book Al-Kafi that he asked Imam (a.s.): How much reward
is earned by a person who performs a Hajj on behalf of
someone else? Imam (a.s.) replied, "The reward of ten Hajjs
shall be given to the one who performs it on behalf of
someone else."
(Furu Al-Kafi Vol. 4 Pg. 312)
2- Shaykh Sadooq (a.r.) writes in his book Man La
Yahzarul Faqih that Imam Sadiq (a.s.) was queried
regarding the person who performs Hajj on behalf of
others. Would be earn any rewards? Imam (a.s.) said, "One
who performs Hajj on behalf of someone else gets
rewarded for 10 Hajjs. (Also), the person (who has
performed the Hajj on behalf of someone) his mother,
father, sons and daughters, brothers and sisters, paternal
uncles and aunts and maternal uncles and aunts, all of
them receive salvation. The Mercy of Allah is spread wide
and He is kind."

Mastrubation is a major sin (Gunah-e-Kabira)

By -
Once, 'Ammar ibn Musa asked Imam Sadiq [a] about commiting sexual intercourse with beasts or masterbation by the hand or other limbs of one's ownself, and he [a] replied: "Any form of these kinds and the like of them by which man pours forth his water, is (considered as) fornication (and it is unlawful)." AI-Kafi, vol. 5, p. 541 Question: What is the situation of Islam towards masturbation? Some youths say that doctors think it has no harm. The answer: Not all that doctors say is true. There are other doctors that say the opposite. What is important to us is what our Wise Creator says. He is more aware of His creatures. Islam, which is the speech of Allah, is clear in its verdicts. The Prophet (S) and his progeny have prohibited it. Masturbation is a filthy doing. Some traditions have called it as “adultery with oneself”. It does not fit the dignity of a respectable man. The clearest evidence on its ugliness is that the doer feels disgust with himself after

Alhamdulliah

Alhamdu means that (all) praise, thanks, gratitude, be to Allah alone, not to any one else, from the beginning of the universe to its end, not under compulsion, but because He alone, and none else, deserves to be praised, not only for the fulfilment of his particular desires but also, mainly, for all the bounties and blessings made available to man in his existence. The love of the merciful for His creation is so deep and fulfilling that no compensation, even in the form of gratitude, can be offered to Him. In fact He needs no return. The divine mercy is independent of gratitude. It reaches and covers all the created beings whether the creatures show gratitude or not for the benefits and bounties they make use of and enjoy. The smallest bounty is an unconditional favour. Man does not deserve it, nor has he any right to claim any favour from the Lord. It is the allembracing mercy of the merciful Lord which reaches one and all, whether any creature asks for it or not, whether the recipie
