Q: Please clarify for me, I had learnt that if I am praying salaah not a Fard and my parents call me I should break my salaah and respond to them. Is this correct?

Further I had done this when praying the Nafl of maghrib. However after seeing to my mother the salaah time expired. Will this Nafl have to be repeated as qazaa?

In the second instance, one had already commenced performing nafil salaat but when one’s wudhu broke, one did not renew one’s wudhu and abandoned performing the nafil salaat. In the first instance, is it now mandatory to fast and perform the nafil salaat one had intended to perform? And, in the second instance, does performing the abandoned nafil salaat also become mandatory?

Q:

1) If a person's mother calls her whilst she is reading Salaah , and she is not sure if it's urgent or not, does she have to break her Salaah? Is there a difference if it's fardh or sunnat salaah?

2) If a person's husband is stuck outside the house because the door is locked with the key in and a lady is performing her Salaah, and the husband needs to come in then get farigh and proceed to musjid, should she break her Salaah. Again is there a difference if it's faraaid or Sunnats?
