Q: I had a bunch of shoes that I needed to wash, leather running shoes and other shoes. One of my shoes had pee drops on it. I put the shoes into a washing machine with soap and then after the first washing was done, I did another wash in the same machine with soap. I was going to do a third but I didn't because I thought it was clean.

Q: I visited a certain website, according to them hanafis can't pray behind Imams of the haramain if they don't take care of the masaail in wudu as hanafis do i.e they should do masah of head to more than quarter of the head, if they don't do we can't pray behind them. I think this is not good, at the time of Sahaba there would not have been such an issue as to not offer salah behind any specific sahabi. Please clarify.
