QUESTION: Some days ago I saw that asr time entered. In a rush I forgot if I prayed dhurh, so I assumed that I didnt and immediately started making it up. While praying I remembered that I actually prayed it. I wanted to change my intention to asr since it’s already asr time but I wasn’t sure if I can do I, so I changed my intention to nafil. What should I do if this happens again?

QUESTION: I mistakenly crossed someone who was praying in the masjid. I crossed between the space of him standing and his prostration which i know is prohibited. But it was an unintentional mistake as I didnot realize he was praying. Is there a sin for me for that?
