Salaah

Q: I suffer from a sever depersonalisation disorder. It prevents me from praying with reverence. I want to pray and I am now trying to memorize as much as I can of the holy Quran. I am so sad I want to pray but I can't feel that while I am praying I am standing between in front of Allah Ta'ala. I have been struggling with it for 7 years and I always make dua' and do everything I can to stop it from letting me live a normal life. I want to know what should I do? Am I being a bad Muslim because I keep skipping prayers?

Q: If someone believes that the Imam of the Musjid is a Shia, then is it permissible for that person to read Salaah behind this imaam?

Q: I want to know that can a woman offer Salaah before the congregational Salaah in the Musjid or does she have to wait for the congregational Salaah to be done in the Musjid before she performs her Salaah? Similarly what is the ruling for woman's zuhr Salaah on Friday?

Q: Is it permissible to recite two or more Surahs consecutively in a single rakaat of a Fardh or Nafl Salaah?

Q: Could Mufti Saheb please tell me if Salaah should be repeated if one carried a child and afterwards found his clothes to be damp. Thinking the dampness to be sweat he performed Salaah. After that he found that the child's diaper had leaked and it had not been sweat.

Q: Is sajda-e-sahw compulsory if one starts reciting Surah faatiha in qadah or one recites at-tahiyaat at the beginning of any rakaat?

Q: I intend travelling from my home town to Johannesburg. I will stay for four days then leave for Pietermaritzburg where I will stay for 7 days then I will go to Durban for 6 days. I will leave my home town in the state of haidh. If I calculate my cycle, I should take a ghusal in Pietermaritzburg so I will read my Salaah in full. However once I leave for Durban, then will I read qasr or salaah in full as I don't think the distance from Pietermaritzburg to Durban is 77.7km. When I leave Durban I will go back to Pietermaritzburg and then to Johannesburg. Will I read qasr in Johannesburg? Please advise.

Q: Is it permissible to straighten the kurta in Salaah with two hands?

Q: Can women join Salaatul Istisqaa?

Q: When praying our fard salat in the musjid, I was told that we can have the intention of tahiyyatul musjid included in the fard salaah or the sunnahs prayed before the fard. Does this apply also to maghrib salat (i.e. can we combine the fard of maghrib with tahiyyatul masjid), or is it different since that is a three rakaat salah? If it doesn't apply for maghrib, are there any other salaahs for which it doesn't apply too?
