Q: Please provide guidance on Salaah times.

1. I notice that some timetables stipulate Asr (Shafi) and Asr (Hanafi). There is usually a 70 minute difference between the 2 times.

1a. As I am Hanafi, what happens if I perform Asr at the time permitted for Shafi’s?

1b. At what time does Zuhr end, and Asr begin?

1c. As I am Hanafi, can I still read Zohr at the time that Asr for the Shafi’s commence?

2. Until what time can I perform Asr?

3. Until what time can I perform Maghrib?

4. Until what time can I perform Esha?

Q: Four men (A, B, C & D) started a joint halaal business by investing Rs.50,000 each. The business could not be established well and after a year, two of the men (A & B) decides to leave the business as they don't find it profitable.

At this point, how will the shares be given back to A & B, who have decided to discontinue out of their own free will?

Q: I have read somewhere that while making ghusal, if any part of our body gets dry before purifying the other part, I have to repeat my whole ghusal (i.e. suppose if the water output of the tap is too slow and after washing my head, when I reach to clean my legs, some parts of my head or arms had already dried, do I need to repeat the ghusal? 

Q: Can I use that water for ghusal which I have kept in a bucket for ghusal, but while making ghusal, if the water droplets from my body falls into that bucket where I have kept the rest of my water, is that water pure enough to make the rest of the ghusal?

Q: Please explain this Hadith:

Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (radiyallahu ‘anhu) reports that Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam) said: ‘Be quick in increasing your good deeds, before such trials arrive, in which a person who was a believer in the morning will become a kaafir (non believer) by the evening, or he who was a believer in the evening would become a non believer by the morning; because of him selling his deen (religion) in exchange of the acquisitions of the world.’ (Sahih Muslim, Hadith: 309)

Q:

1. If during traveling, an Imaam makes intention of qasr Asr but the muqtadi, who is also a traveler, mistakenly made intention of four rakaats. Will the muqtadi need to repeat the salaah (two rakaats qasr) or the niyyat of Imaam will be the one to supersede over that of the muqtadi and the muqtadi’s salaah behind the Imaam will be valid?

2. As a muqtadi, since I was not sure of the above, I repeated the Asr and prayed two rakaat qasr, was this action, in cases of doubts, correct until I come to know the right maslah?

Q: A 25 year old person suffers from asthma attacks on and off. The only solution is to take an inhaler which contains medications. How will he fast during Ramadhaan?

Q: Presently I have two wives. I married with my first wife while I was studying in Turkey and she got official status of my wife in the online government system in Turkey. I have married again a couple months back. Now I got a job in Turkey, where I can take my first wife only (since she is registered there and two wives are not allowed in Turkey) and cannot take my second wife due to the given reason. I am confused as to what to do?

If I take my first wife only and visit Pakistan in the holidays or call her on a tourist visa off and on, will this be fine and justified? Please advise me as to what I should do so that I may not become sinful?

Q: If a person needs to break his salaah for some reason, how should he do it? Should he make salaam to both sides, or turn his face to one side, or what should he do?
