Q: I was always of the impression that the muqtadee should recite tahmeed in qaumah after the imaam completes reciting tasmee. However, I was lately informed by certain Ulama that the muqtadee should recite tahmeed at the same time that the imaam recites tasmee. I would like to know whether this is correct? I also wish to know whether all my past salaah are valid since I have always been reciting tahmeed in qaumah after the imaam completed reciting tasmee.

Q: There is a girl whom I like very much and when my family met her family, my parents didn't like her family much because they don't follow parda. My parents said they don't like the girl but if I am persistent with the girl they don't have any problem. The girl is pious and committed to deen except that she doesn't wear burqa and wears all modern dresses like t-shirts and jeans. I tried explaining to her about the importance of hijab but she used to get irritated listening to it. I feel I will be able to convince her for hijab and parda in a long-term i.e. if we get married. So my questions are first, should I marry her or not? Second, if I marry her am I disobeying my parents?
