Prayer

This is recommended if she prays alone or with a group of women.

When I read sahih bukhari I came up with some hadeeth that prophet (sal)prayed 2 rakhas after Asar prayer.hadeeth no 564,565,566,567 Volume1,Book10,No 565: Narrates Hisham’s father: ‘Aisha (addressing me) said,”O son of my sister! The Prophet never missed two prostrations (i.e. Rakat) after the ‘Asr prayer in my house.” I also read its forbidden to pray after asar! It is confusing

This was a speciality for the Prophet salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam and in another hadeeth by Umm Salama, she asked him if we would do the same and he didn’t allow it.

Please tell me if I prayed and there was an object with face on it which I completely forgot about nearby, (on my side out of my sight where i was praying) will my prayer be accepted inshAllah. I am aware ideally there should be no images around.

This is permissible as this is the language that the people understand! However, the imam must say the shahadah in Arabic and at least, recite one ayah and one hadeeth and praise Allah.

Can a boy’s aqiqah be 2 goats, 2 cows, 1 goat + 1 sheep, 1 sheep + 1 cow (so the meat will be enough for guests), 2 camels, or any other combination?

Slaughtering

It is an issue of Dispute! I believe that it is permissible to slaughter two animals whether two Rams or two of a cow or a camel.

A guy, whose house is too far from masjid, distance covers about 4 km, he can’t hear the Adhan, but he’s intention is highly to pray in masjid.. Though he prays 5 daily prayers alone at home , as their family does not pray with him in congregation , In this case his prayers are acceptable? Is it valid if he prays alone?

Yes, it is accepted.

pls is it right for mothers to bring their young child (male) to the masjid and even put them in the sahu?

Prayer

07 Oct

Children should come when they are seven and they should be standing next to their parents so that they wouldn’t move or disturb others. But if the boy is ten or so and the way he looks at women is a bit unchildish, he shouldn’t be allowed in the prayer hall of women.

If in a silent Rakah, the Imam goes into Ruku before the follower finishes Surah Al-Faatihah, is the Salaah of the follower affected if he simply goes into Ruku straight away despite knowing that he has enough time to finish the Surah and still catch up with the Imam in Ruku?

Prayer

07 Oct

He must finish the Fatiha quickly or his Rakah is invalid.

If someone forgets to say bismillah after seeking refuge in the prayer does he have to make sujood as sahu. If he is praying behind an imam does the imam make it up?

Prayer

07 Oct

No, there is no such sujood on him as it is sunnah to say it!
