I am a previously divorced mother of one child. Last week I had my nikah done. I originally asked my brother to be my wali and support me in the nikah but he refused. Therefore I appointed the imaam of the mosque to act as my wali. The nikah was then done in mosque with the presence of two witnesses and haq mehr (money) was paid to me. Is this marriage valid?

we had got 2 goats for sacrificing for eid ul adha. One of the goat got bitten by snake and died.We had bought another one and sacrificed in its place.My question is does this mean anything or its just that Allah had decided the animal’s death in such a way? I feel its wrong to interpret anything like something wrong might happen to family.

You didn’t need to buy another one as the one that died did the job and was accepted by Allah.

I need an urgent advise regarding my Hajj for this year. I went to stoning for Jamaraat today i.e. 2nd day of stoning. I searched for Zawal time online & found Zawal start time as 11:37 AM for Mecca. Hence I started stoning small Jamaraat at around 11:44AM. I stoned last Jamaraat at 12:05PM. Later i discussed with others after Maghrib & found that we should start after Zuhr. What to do?
