Q: A musaafir joined a muqeem imam in a 4 rakaat salaah. His wudhu broke, so he had to leave. So when he repeats the salaah must he read 2 rakaats qasr or should he perform full 4 rakaats?

Q: We understand that when a person undertakes a journey for a distance of more than 48 Miles/77 km from his city of residence, he is required to offer only 2 Rakaahs of Fard Salaah, if offered alone, up to 19 days of his stay in another city, as confirmed in Sahih Hadith. But, for those who regularly offer Tahajjud Salaah, should they continue offering Tahajjud Salaah for those 19 days while they are in a state of journey to another city? Or is there an exception for them. Please clarify.

Q: Recently I have got married to a boy who lives approximately 100 miles away from me (more than shari' safar distance). However he is working in my hometown until after Ramadhaan but still holds his hometown as his watn-e-asli. We live together in my hometown. My question is that as I haven't moved to his hometown and consider myself as a resident of my hometown until Ramadhaan. Do I have to perform qasr or itmaam when we visit his family in his hometown?

Q: I performed isha whilst being a traveller but I returned home before fajr time. Will it be ok for me to perform 2 rakaats isha followed by 3 witr (and skip the sunnats since they are not emphasized then), or must I since I know that I will return home before fajr also pray the sunnats (either whilst on the journey or when coming home)?

Q: Maulana Fazlur Rahman Azmi Sahab of Madrasah Arabia Islamia, Azaadville, South Africa writes in his book: "A person becomes a musafir by travelling 54 english miles not 48 miles. Is this correct because I was told a person becomes a musafir by travelling 48 English miles?
