Q: Many are of the view that the congregational du'a after fardh salaah is not an established practise. Is there any Ahadeeth e.t.c indicating that it was the practice of Rasulullah (S.A.W) or the sahabah i.e. congregational du'a after fardh salaah? Is it sunnah? If it is, how and what is the sunnah method of carrying out this ibadah?

Q: My son is a final year kitaab student at a Darul uloom. During the breaks he is given the opportunity to make imaamat at our local Musallah. He does not make a loud duaa after the farad salaah as he is taught at his Darul uloom. He was reprimanded recently by one of the senior aalims for not making a loud duaa. What is the ruling on the making of loud duaa. Is this a bidah practice or is it permissible at times?

I would appreciate if Mufti Saheb can please respond to the following:
1) Are the above mentioned Fatawa correct? If not, can Mufti Saheb please respond to their arguments.
2) Is there any clear hadith which shows that Nabi (Sall Allahu alayhi wassallam) and Sahabah or anyone in the Khair al quroon used to supplicate in this manner?
3) Since we are muqallids, is there any mention in the classical Hanafi works (books between 150 A.H to 1250 A.H; before the Ulama of Deoband) concerning CONGREGATIONAL dua after Salaah?
4) There are numerous harms which comes about because of the congregational supplication. Amongst others are:
Can Mufti Saheb please respond to the above questions for the pleasure of Allah Ta'ala and the benefit of the Muslim public. May Allah Ta'ala reward Mufti Saheb.

Q: When you say that the minimum of reciting the quran for a hafidh, you mean the one that has already completed his hifz? Is it the same for the one who isn't hafidh yet. In my case, i've memorised 5 siparas. What 's the minimum for me to revise daily?
Q: "Dua when setting eyes on the Ka'bah Shareef". Is it only for the hajis who are in makkah and see the kabah? Or is it also valid when we see the kaaba on the tv, or on a video, or on a frame, or on a picture and so on?
Q: "Dua for one's Muslim brother in his absence" What does it mean exactly?
Q: When the Hadith says: "Dua between the Azaan and Iqamah" what about women? (except for maghrib) zohar and asar azan are given 15 minutes before men start the fardh salat. Esha and Fajar, its not allowed to give azan here. So as a girl, i'd like to know when this hadith is valid for me because I don't know exactly when the iqamah is done in the masjid. Should I make dua just after azan?
