Q: Since last few months there’s minor fluid leaking from my anus, as soon as I clean myself and make wudhu, it leaks again. I think I qualify to be a Ma’zoor.

2. Can I offer Nafl Fasts in this state?

3. As the wudhu expires at the end of every salah time. Is it ok if I perform wudhu 5 mins before Maghrib as the jama’at time starts right after Adhan. I perform wudhu for Tahajjud Salah (20 mins before Fajr), do I have to perform fresh wudhu after Fajr time begins?

Q: Recently my friend took her 2 year old daughter to a Moulana and he apparently checks for nazr. So he makes the child put her finger on a device like a screw driver and the mother must say her name and then the childs name and then if the sandal turns the child has nazr.

So the child apparently had nazr and the Moulana read something and blew, etc. He asked them to give him her outfit that she was wearing so he could check something and he said later on that she has something called a "bad wind" on her and he was going to try to take out the bad wind.

He also gave them 7 small pieces of paper with something written on it an they were instructed to take the paper around her 7 times at maghrib an then burn the paper. He also gave them a paper with something written on it and told them that they must put it in water and make the child drink from the water.

My question is, is it more advisable for the parents themselves to read aayaat an duas from the Holy Quraan on the child for protection from nazr etc. or is it better to seek the help of such Moulanas?
