Q: If the khuff has a cotton inner lining sewn in itself, is its lining is considered to be the khuff ? i.e. if on the leather in that case are 4 holes i.e tears, but the cotton innerlining at these tears is intact than these tears on the leather are of no consideration and they don't count as holes. Is this correct? I remember reading this in Halabi as Saghir it was attributes to Imam Muhammad.
Q: I received a wooden wall hanging/frame as a gift from a non muslim. Since it had pictures of horses (animals), i never hanged it any where in my home, rather i just put it in a closed cupboard. can you kindly explain to me whether it is acceptable in Islamic sense for me to give this wooden frame as a gift to a non muslim friend, rather than myself just holding on to it.

Q: During Quran recitation or during the Zikrs and duaas while in salaah if one stops at the half of a word and after 2 seconds one continue does the Salaah break? For example when one wants to read "Alhamdulillahi rabbil alamin..." one says "Al..." after 2 seconds "...Hamdulillahi..." or one starts from begining again. Another example when reciting "Ihdinas siraat al mustakim..." one says "siraat al..." then one does restart from "Ihdinas..." Or when reading "...musteqim.." one stops after after "muste..." then one re-reads it. Does such things break salaah? Also if one makes such an error that would break the salaah, if one re-reads the relevant place correctly again, does the salaah become valid again?
