Q: In some kitaabs like taalifat rashidiyyah it is written that it is mustahab to repeat the salaah prayed behind a faasiq (the one who trim or shave less than a fist lenght) and in ahsanul fatawa it is writen that if the salaah of a muqtadi become makrooh due to the salaah of imaam become makrooh. What is understood is that it is mustahab for the muqtadi to repeat the salaah prayed behind a faasiq. Please confirm?

Q: I require the following clarifications regarding wearing a Topi.
- Did Rasul Allah Sallallaahu Alaihiwa Sallam and the Sahaabah Radhi Allahu Anhum nurture the habit of wearing Topi during their lifetime? Sahih Bukhari 275 mentions of an occasion when Rasul Allah Sallallaahu Alaihiwa Sallam led the Jamaath having just completed his Ghusl with water dripping from his hair. Similarly other references that Rasul Allah Sallallaahu Alaihiwa Sallam did not wear Topi are mentioned in Nasa'i -5219, 4980, Muslim - 4666, 4680, 4270 Bukhari - 3548, 352, 353 and Abu Dawood - 592, 3658.
- Did not this practise actually originate in Turkey when it became the capital of the Islamic empire, whose citizens had a traditional habit of wearing the tall and round Topi?
- Why do Muslims in many countries offer Salaah without the Topi? Are they going against the Deen? Is their Salaah not valid?
- Then why do not Muslims who go on Haj/Umrah not wear a Topi (covering their head) by un-stitched cloth like they wear for Ihram?
- So, going by the above Sahih Hadith, is it still mandatory to wear the Topi ? Is it not a Bid'ah?

Q: A person who is "saahibut tarteeb" was sitting in the jumuah bayaan when he realised that he hadn't performed fajr. He then planned that he will read his qada when everyone is reading their sunnats after the bayaan, before the khutba. However he had a dire need to go to the toilet and only returned when the Imaam was on the mimbar and azaan was called. So he sat for the khutba, read jumuah and performed his fajr qada after the jumuah salaah.
- Is what he did correct?
- If not, what must he do to rectify his actions?
