Look for "Redirect Permanent" in your apache docs.

Alternatively, search this site for 301 redirect.

jaleel,

(assuming you don't run your own server)

Redirects cause all sorts of confusion - you should see the lengths of the threads! It's because there are so many different server set-ups. I strongly recommend you get in touch with your host and ask them politely to set it up for you. If they don't know how to do it, ask your host to contact their NOC (network operations centre) and ask them to do it there. For the folks running the server it is a 2 minute job.

Might also be worth checking that your current re-direct is a permanent one, and not just a temporary one.

301 redirect didnt work for the https://

I can set 301 /store/index.php [muslimin.com...]

but put these in the .htaccess simply dont work
301 [muslimin.com...] [muslimin.com...]

I put these in the robot.txt last night
Disallow: [muslimin.com...]
Allow : [muslimin.com...]

not sure if it will work, well google index my site every 3-4 days so i think i will know by Tuesday hopefully.

what was the instruction to include in robot.txt to tell robot to visit everyday?

Jaleel,

Might be a typo, but take care with robot.txt - it's robots.txt

I had this same exact problem a while back and it was a problem with the SSL cert. configuration. See your sys admin.
