Q: Can children play ball in the masjid and what is the proof of it?
Q: The masjid in our area is fairly new. We have, for Jumu'ah, about just over a dozen musallis. It is a mixed congregation of Shaafi and Hanafi. Our imaam for Salaah passed away in September. Since then, while we are looking into appointing a new Imaam, we have invited other Ulama to conduct Jumuah.
The last imam who came, informed us that our Jumuah is problematic as per Imam Shaafi, there should be at least 40 men.
Is it correct? Or can we continue with Jumuah Salaah?
Q: I have problem. Last year I had a panic attack while performing salah. From that day I am unable to pray salah in a masjid. Whenever I went for salah in the masjid, my situation becomes very worse. A lot of times I had to cut my salah and come home and then I performed salah at home.
My question is, can I perform my salah at home till my situation becomes good.

Q: Who is responsible from both parents to assist a baligh boy who is mentally challenged, to assist him in shaving, scrubbing and bathing. He is 24, but looks like a 14 year old. His hands cannot reach out to even wash himself in the toilet, hasn't got flexible fingers to use properly.
The mother does everything as the father shows very little or no interest. Please advise.
She doesn't mind taking care of her son, but also wants the father to share in the reward Allah will grant, in sha Allah.
Q: If one felt the taste of blood in the mouth and eventually so he went to bathroom and spat out and there was discoloured saliva and didn’t seem to see blood and swallowed intentionally as he didn’t think there was blood but it tasted like blood. So most likely he would have consumed blood but not intentionally. Does this mean his salah may not be accepted for 40 days because of consuming this blood?
