Salaah

Q: I have received a proposal and read Istikhara for which I received a positive reply. On Saturday a lady came to my house who "sees" and asked if she could "see" for me. I thought it was like going to a Moulana where they check to see if any nazar or jaadu is troubling you. She told me a lot of things about my future. She also said that my Istikhara even though it was positive, if I married the man it would be the biggest mistake of my life. She is a Muslim and made me read durood sharif and blow in a glass of water before taking the glass and "seeing". I have always been under the impression that Istikhara is guidance from Allah and that only Allah can know what our future holds. I am very confused. Please advise if what this woman does is accepted in Islam? Is my Istikhara still valid. Would it be best to get an Aalim to read istikhara on my behalf? I am very confused.

Q: I have lot of qadha namaaz. Can I read ishraaq, chashth, awwabeen namaz? I have lot of fear. How can I overcome this?

Q: What to do if I pray three rakaats Salaah in asr by mistake? Should I have to repeat the namaaz or sajdaa sahu will be enough to complete the namaz? Also if I forget which rakaat I am in, then what should I do?

Q: Zawal is at 12:10. A person starts praying at 12:05 and finishes the prayer at 12:15. Does his prayer become totally invalid and baatil due to part of it falling in zawal time, or will it still be valid but with karaahat?

Q: A drunk/intoxicated person read salaah. Will it be accepted? Will he get reward?

Q: I have just found out that I calculated my haidh incorrectly for many months due to regarding a normal discharge to be blood. Do I have to offer qadha salaah for all these months? And what is the status of the salaah I offered while I was impure? Please advise.

Q: I was calculating how many salaahs I have not read and it comes to 65 500.00 over 36 years. How do I correct?

Q: I want to know that can a person offer any Salaah during zawaal time in the evening? I had heard some Mufti saying that the particular day's asr can be offered. What is the time for zawaal before maghrib?

Q: What is the ruling for a masbooq who forgot to read a surah after surah fatiha but completed his namaz?

Q: When I am Salah in the first sitting, I cannot point my big toe forward sometimes as it cramps up so I have to move forward and just sit with my toes on the floor. Sometimes I do it just before it happens even though it has not cramped up I do it in preparation for it. Will this be regarded as too much movement and invalidate my Salaah? I sort get half up and then readjust my toe and sit down.
