Q: Is it permissible to recite the Quraan Shareef whilst reclining (e.g. when seated in a moving car)?
Q: I have learnt that Sayyiduna Uthman (Radiallahu 'Anhu) used to recite the whole Quraan Shareef in Tahajjud Salaah. If one takes 5 minutes to properly recite a 1/4 para and hence 20 minutes per para then it takes 600 minutes (10 hours) to recite the whole Quraan Shareef. Since the night is not always 10 hours long, does it mean that Sayyiduna Uthman (Radiallahu 'Anhu) recited a para in less than 20 minutes?
Q: Is it permissible for someone who has some understanding of the meanings of the Quraan Shareef to not follow the waqf signs (e.g. ط in the IndoPak mushaf) and make waqf where he wishes (provided he does not make a big error)?
