Q: Is the shape of the forearms and calves of a woman required to be concealed infront of non mahrams?

Q: If a person, due to slip of tongue, said something of kufr while not intending it, is he kafir?
For example, a person wanting to say that "one who rejects God is not a Muslim" but he accidentally says "one who rejects God is not a kafir" but then he realises and corrects it. Does he have to renew his iman and nikah?
Q: There is a couple that recently came from hajj. They did all things correct but they have 1 doubt.
After coming from Muzdalifah, doing 1st rami, and cutting of hairs/halaq, they opened their ihram and after that they thought they are open from ihram and out of ignorance and oversight they did sexual relations just before tawaf e ziarat.
Tawaf e ziarat was done after gusal and proper clean cloths? Would they be required to give damm? If yes, will it be for both or just 1?
