Q: I rush from work to catch Asr salaah. I normally get there when salaah has already started. If I make sunnah wudhu, I will miss jamaaat. If I make fardz wudhu, I can catch jamaat with still one or two rakaats. Should I make sunnah or fardz wudhu in this case?
Q: In todays measurements of kilometers, what is the minimum distance a person has to be from the musjid for salaah to become fard on him in the musjid. In other words, when will it be permissible for him to perform salah at home.
Q: I live just more than 4.9 km from the nearest Masjid. Am I sinful in not attending the Masjid for Salaah?
Q: My mother does not want me to go to the Masjid for Maghrib and Esha Salaah. Though we only live 15-20 minutes from the nearest Masjid, our house is in a somewhat isolated area. So my mother fears me being hijacked or something similar. Hijackings etc. are common at these times and in our area, so the fear of my mother is valid. However, I do not feel it is so dire. But I could be wrong. Though I also want to perform all my Salaah in the Masjid Insha-Allah. Please advise if I have to follow this command of my mother and thus perform Maghrib and Isha Salaah at home?
Q: Can I perform Salaah with my wife if I miss jamaat? Will we get the sawab of jamaat.
Q: I perform most of my salaah with my family at home. The musjid is not very far away from where I live. Will I receive the reward of performing salaah with jamaat through making jamaat with my family at home?
Q: In the UK the weather is often cold and wet and I am a young teenager. Sometimes I want to go to pray salah with the jamaat but due to the weather my mother stops me fearing that I will become ill. Shall I disobey her and fulfil Allah Ta'ala's command or obey her and read at home? Would I get a sin for not obeying my mother or missing salah with jamat?
Q: My parents sometimes ask me to do some work for them and it happens to be at the same time as jamaat salaat at the Masjid. If I do their work, I will miss salaat with jamaat and if I go to the Masjid, I can't do their work because it had to be done at that time. Should I do their work and miss jamaat or give preference to jamaat?
Q: What is the explanation of takbeer-e-ula? Will you still call it takbeer-e-ula if you get the Imaam in the qiraat of the surah?
Q: In the Hadith it comes to read Esha and fajr with jamaat, one would get all night reward, does this mean in the masjid or if one reads at home with jamaat would he get all night reward?
