If a person enters the masjid after the athan or while the Imam is delivering the Khutba, he must not sit down before praying 2 Rak’ah. This is the instruction of our Prophet salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam.

And Allah knows best

Can i pray 2 raakah during the khutbah has started during the Juma’a prayer. Some say its OK while some are of the opinion that once the adhan is called for the commencement of khutbah then you are not suppose to pray 2 raakah that you should just sit and listen. Please clarify this confusion for me. Thanks.

In my country (India)there are a lot of masajid attached to graves of saints, and in some masajids ther are graves. Sometimes its hard to identify and at time of salat can we offer prayers in them if we do not know they have graves in it.And i knew a masajid which has a grave inside its boundry but my friend sometimes insists praying in it how can I deny to him that i cannot offer my prayer with him.

During juma, in the middle of the khutbah, the imam stops sometimes to say a pray for the prophet, and he does this out loud in Arabic. But then, sometimes, the imam will stop to pray in silence and everyone else follows this.So I’m wondering, what is this silent prayer? It seems like everyone else knows exactly what to pray and I’m always sitting there somewhat lost, . I’m new to Islam, so I’m just trying to learn everything I can.
