Prayer

1.Witr is not fard but rather a highly recommended sunnah which the Prophet salla Allahu aliaihi wa sallam never missed, even during safar. 2. Qunoot in Witr is not mandatory and it doesn’t require sujood as sahu if missed.

Is there any difference in the Salah of men & women? Did Shaykh Shafi say something in the same regard??

No problem if they’re clean. If you’re a man then you have to change and then go to the masjid.

In fard prayer when I find the imam in rukuh I don’t join him there rather wait for him to go to sujood and then I join him. Because I know that without fatiha my rakah is invalid. But I have also heard you saying if I join during rukooh my rakah is valid. Which one is corrert?

Prayer

Whenever you enter the masjid, you must join the Imam regardless of the position he is in. If you manage to perform ruku while he is in ruku, this Rakah is valid.

I follow a hanifi salah timetable.Fajr starts at 5.30 can I read witr at 5.15 after tahajjud

This depends when Fajr is due. You must not depend on the Hanafi timetable as their Fajr and Asr are wrong and not according to the sunnah.

My question is that we missed our daughter’s aqiqaah in Intial 7days.now she is 10days old, in this regard what Allah and his beloved Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) order us. Plz guide us.

No problem in delaying the aqiqa, it is against the sunnah but not sinful.

I’m pregnant. I offer salah while sitting on chair. I offer Sajdah on a cushion placed on table. Purpose of cushion is 2 raise the height of table as I can’t bend more. Is it permissible to offer Sajdah on soft cushion ?

Prayer

You don’t have to offer your sujud on a cushion, but you must make your sujud by bending more than ruku’ while placing your hands on your knees.

sheikh, I came late to the congregation in the masjid and joined the congr. in the second row and missed a Raka’ or two. The guy who was praying in front of me (in the front row) stood and went away after the congr. finished while I was still making up my missed Raka’s. Please confim: (1) Is the guy sinful; major or minor? (2) Is my prayer valid? Do I have to repeat?

Prayer

01 Oct

The man is not sinful as he is not obliged to wait for you, and your salah is valid.
