Time for Tahajjud Salaah

Q: My question relates to the times of Tahajud. When i was in madressah I was taught that we could read from just after 12am till about 15min before fajar salah. Recently I was told many different things regarding the times. What would be the right time to read Tahajud salah and the cut off time?

Not fasting due to an Ulcers and IBS

Q: Ramadaan is here and I have a bit of a concern about my fasts. I can't keep fasts, the pain in my stomach is excruciating. I can't keep them out of Ramadaan as the same thing happens. Infact on a normal day if I skip a meal or don't eat when I'm hungry then I get that pain. I've been to two doctors and they are of the opinion that I have ulcers as well as IBS (irritable bowel syndrome). During the past Ramadaan I had to stop fasting as I was not responding to the ulcer medication and the pain was unbearable, I'm also told there is no cure for IBS. Am I allowed to not fast and pay for them instead?

Mazi

Q: When checking for mazi if I check on my underwear and on top of the private part for mazi or traces of it and find nothing, but when squeezing the private part then only seeing mazi come out after squeezing, is the wudhu broken from before? Or only when  mazi actually flows out after squeezing? No traces could be seen on the private part head or the undergarment. So will wudhu be broken if mazi is there(inside) but didn't flow out?
