Q: I am praying taraweeh in a place where five times prayers are offered throughout the year but not the Jumuah prayer. It is a small place with fixed Imam. 

Can we pray Esha here or should I pray Esha in a bigger nearby masjid and then go there for taraweeh?

Q: My question is regarding Hajj. 

I would like to know what is the difference between dam e shukar and qurbani? 

Do I have to 2 different qurbanis? 

If I do dam e shukar in Makkah, can I come out of ihraam or do I have to also do my qurbani and then come out of ihraam? 

I plan to do my qurbani in Malawi and dum a shukar in Makkah.

Q: Regarding the current conflicts, is it correct for Muslims to support Iran since they're 'defending Palestine', even though they might be Shia?

Q: In my masjid, the qiblah is off by a bit. In between 35 - 43°. (Closer to 40° in most apps) 

They are getting new carpets fitted insha Allah. However, the committee are disputing on whether to face it to the qibla or keep it as it is. They will lose a few musalla spaces if they angle the carpets and it will make the carpets not match the building which they don't want. 

I've said, although the salaahs may be valid, it would be best to angle it and go closer to the qiblah, preferably within 20°. Could you give a final answer into the matter?

Q: My mother is due for her eye injection in the month of Ramadan (the injection is in the eye). The doctor advises that she doesn't skip it.  Is it permissible to take it?  Will it break the fast or not? 

Q: Is there a specific way, method or structure to seek knowledge? I have heard that there is a ‘manhaj’ for seeking knowledge but do not know if this is correct.

Q: If one thought he was musaafir and read 2 rakaats for his namaaz, but after that he found out that he was not a musaafir. What must one do? Does he repeat his namaaz?

Q: Person A gave a person B a loan of R100 000. Person B also purchased a car from person A to the agreed value of R250 000 on a pay off basis. 

Person A decided after a few months he wants his R100 000 back and full payment of the car. By this point, person A was already paid R200 000 for the car. 

Person A then took the car back because person B could not meet the deadline for payment. 

This all transpired over 8 months. So person A is sitting with the R200 000 plus the car and never wanted to give person B a cent back claiming usage charges, insurance charges, wear and tear cost, etc. 

After much back and forth person A gave person B R25 000 back. Was this fair in the eyes of Islam ?
