Q: I have learning disabilities and speaking problems. I find saying zikr or reciting Quran difficult. I don't say zikr or Quranic words correctly, meaning I don't pronounce them the right way. Will I be still rewarded for saying zikr and reciting Quran?

Q: I know that being a Hafiz-e-Quran has virtues, and there is a sahih hadith that says their parents will be crowned on the day of judgement. There is also a weak hadith that mentions they will intercede for ten relatives on the Day of Qiyamah. Despite this hadith being weak, Ulama have said that a Hafiz-e-Quran still has virtues and might intercede and they will go to Jannatul Firdaus.
I want to do hifz because I want Jannatul Firdaus, but I am 26 and struggle to memorize things. It is also very challenging to do hifz in today's busy schedule, where we work 9 to 5 or run businesses, and also have to pray five times a day and give time to family. In this case, what if we don't do hifz but instead learn essential Quranic Arabic words and grammar to understand the Qur'an in Arabic, and study reliable tafsir under a scholar like Tafsir Ibn Kathir or Bayan ul Quran?
Who has more virtues: a Hafiz-e-Quran or a person who is a non aalim but understands the Qur'an, knows what is written in it, is familiar with the seerah of Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam), and the stories of all the Prophets (qasas ul ambiyaa), and many other things? Can such a person who is not aalim and Hafiz but has the above mentioned knowledge go to Jannatul Firdaus and have virtues equal to a Hafiz-e-Quran or less or more?

Q: Please advise if it is permissible to read the book endorsed by Mufti Menk called "The Quraan as revealed".
Q: In Fardh Salaah, as an Imaam, if I read an Aayah of Sajdah, can I immediately go into ruku at the end of the Sajdah Aayah? i.e. (not going down into a Sajdah Tilaawah), but making intention of sajdah in the ruku.
NB: I did this a few items without informing the congregation.
Please can Mufti Saheb inform me what is the correct thing to do.
