Sitting between the sun and the shade is not allowed
If the place where one is sitting falls between the sun and the shade, he should change his place, because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "If one of you is (sitting) in shade that diminishes in size, resulting in part of his body remaining in the sun and the rest under shade, he should get up and move." (Abu Dawood, no. 4821; Saheeh al-Jaami', no. 748)
The reason for this is that this is the position favoured by the Shaytaan. The evidence is the Prophet's prohibition of sitting partially in the sun and partially in shade. He (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "This is the place where the Shaytaan sits." (Ahmad, 3/413; Saheeh al-Jaami', No. 6823)
When illness strikes one's wife
If an illness strikes someone's wife, it is recommended for him to do what the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) did: "When an illness struck his one of his wives, he ordered for soup to be prepared. Then he ordered her to drink from it. He used to say: 'This strengthens the heart of the one who is distressed, and cleans the heart of the sick person just as one of you cleans her face with water.'" (Jaami' al-Tirmidhi, no. 2039; Saheeh al-Jaami', no. 4646)
If one's children or family members lie
If one of the children or family members of a person lies, he should treat this issue as did the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): "If he (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) came to know that one of his family members had lied, he would keep away from him until he repented." (al-Silsilah al-Saheehah, no. 2052; Saheeh al-Jaami', no. 4675)

Being affected by seeing a woman
If a Muslim sees a non-mahram woman, and this has an effect on him, then if he has a wife he should go home and have intercourse with her so that he may rid himself of whatever affected him. The evidence for this is the narration of Jaabir (may Allaah be pleased with him): "The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: 'If any one of you is attracted to and likes a woman, he should go back to his wife and have intercourse with her, because this will rid him of whatever affected him.'" (Saheeh Muslim, no. 1403)
Sitting between the sun and the shade is not allowed

Being asked to do something at work that is against Islamic teachings
What should one do if one is asked to do something at work that he feels is contrary to the teachings of Islam?
If a person is ordered to do a certain assignment at his work, he should think about it—if the act does not involve any disobedience to Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, he should go ahead and do it. Otherwise, if it does involve some disobedience to Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, he should not obey the command, or else he will be a party to sin and wrong-doing. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "A human must not be obeyed if that involves disobedience to Allah, may He be glorified and exalted. Indeed, obedience only applies in the case of righteous deeds." (Saheeh al-Bukhaari with Fath al-Baari, 13/121; Ahmad, 1/91; this version was narrated in al-Silsilah al-Saheehah, No. 181)
Allah said in the Qur'an (about the people who went astray) (interpretation of the meaning):
"They will say: 'Our Lord! Verily, we obeyed our chiefs and our great ones, and they misled us from the (Right) Way.'" [al-Ahzaab 33:67]
">5. General Behavior and Sunnah of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)
The proper way to thank Allaah
If a Muslim receives a bounty or is rescued from some trial, it is recommended for him to perform the prostration of thankfulness. Abu Bakrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) reports that: "When the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) received something which pleased him or glad tidings, he would make prostration in thanks to Allah." (Abu Dawood, no. 2774;. It is saheeh, and was also reported in Mishkaat al-Masaabeeh , no. 1494)
Ritual purity (tahaarah) and facing the qiblah is not a requirement to make the prostration of thankfulness, however, if one makes wudoo' and faces the qiblah , that is preferred. (Majmoo' Fataawa by Ibn 'Uthaymeen, 4/216.)
