Q&A/Fatwas

If Im unintentionally late for Dhuhr and only have time to start Dhuhr but not finish it before the time and congregation for Asr begins, shall I wait for the congregation and pray Dhuhr behind them.

If you managed to pray at least one Rakah before the time of Athan of Asr, then you have prayed it on time. You would be sinful if you had delayed it for no legitimate reason.

Sheikh I don’t know how to speak Arabic I just know some words in Arabic. In sujood when I make dua I mix English with Arabic. If i make a mistake in the Arabic portion in my dua in sujood and I don’t correct it, is my prayer valid?

If a person joins the imam if he is in ruku has he caught the Rakah in SILENT prayers??? Since it is necessary to recite the surah fatiha….

If you and him were in the position of ruku at the same time, this is a valid Rakah even if you didn’t recite the Fatiha.

I’m trying to get over my obsessions.In Salah sometimes I keep getting thoughts that I’m not doing it right.In Sujood the middle part of one finger was not touching he ground & I started getting these thoughts & continued Salah. Then I thought I should have touched the finger to the ground. Is my Salah invalid?

No, as you seem to be an OCD patient. You have to ignore such thoughts and wiswas.

Brother, if I regularly delay my Fajr prayer till the end of the prescribed time due to some reasons…finishing praying about 10 min before sunrise time, is this OK? Pls clarify.

Prayer

You must not do this as a habit. Try to offer the prayer earlier. However, if you prayed one Rakah before the sun began to rise, your prayer is valid.

If someone misses the zuhr, asr, maghrib and ishaa prayers should he pray all of them starting with salat al ishaa or should he pray just ishaa and maghrib?

Prayer

If he missed them without a legit reason, he cannot make them up. If he had a valid reason, he prays them as the order goes (asr, maghrib, isha).

I prayed Isha five rakahs (dont know if its 5 or 4 but I really feel like its 5) because of this I made sujood of forgetfulness after making salam but I didnt make salam after this sujood (I don’t know that I have to make tasleem after forgetfulness sujood). So is my prayer valid?

Prayer

10 Jan

If you realized that you are in the 5th, you must immediately sit for tashahud without continuing the 5th. You must offer Salam after the two forgetfulness sujood. However, due to your ignorance, your prayer is valid.
