No, nafil prayer is not forbidden at any time except after Fajr uptil the sun rises a little high, at noon for few minutes when the sun is overhead and after Asr. Awabeen prayer is duha prayer and there isn’t any such prayer after Maghreb as the hadeeth is not authentic.

An Imam of the Masjid stated that during Ramadan there is no zawal time or forbidden time to pray before dhuhr. I have searched for this and found no evidence, could you please answer.

Does a second wife have any mandated duties towards the first wife of her husband? Some friends of my husband are saying that as a second wife I have a duty to call the first one to say hello and pay respects because i “found” her in the marriage, and that i am mandated to know and have a relationship with her. Is this true by the deen?

i don’t speak arabic and just understand a very little bit of it. When i recite in the salah a long sura about some more pages, i know that there are surely some litte mistakes in the letters, i recite wrong or i recite a letter with ‘damma’ instead of ‘fatha’.Makes this my prayer unvalid? Please consider that suratul fatiha is recited correctly.
