Safar

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: What is the Shariah ruling of women travelling more than 48 miles in there menses, when will they be counted as travellers and will have to do Qasar for salah and when will they be counted as not travellers and will have to pray full salaah (not do Qasar for salaah)?

Q: I will be going on a journey and staying for longer than 15 days (depart on 24/12/2013 return on 11/01/2014). Must I perform full salaat from the time I leave home? Also while on the road to my destination. Kindly clarify for me.

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?

Q: A woman travels with a mahram to another country. Her mahram returns. Now she stays alone in the foreign country without any mahram or any male relatives? Is this permissible?

Q: When a person is a musaafir, what is the status of the Sunan-e-muakkadah?

Q: I am going for charity work abroad for 14 days. I am the only support for my wife and kids and mother who is abroad. Do I need permission from my mother and wife before I undertake this journey?

Q: In safar we read two fardh. Do we have to read sunnats if we have time? If so than why don't we read full fardh when we have full time?

Q: I work in Fort McMurray, Alberta and my home city is Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The road distance from Fort McMurray to Calgary is around 700KM and flight duration is little over an hour. I work for 10 days and then take 4 days off. In this condition, would my Salaah be qasar at Fort McMurray and full while I am at home for 4 days?
