Qualities of the Imaam

Following an Ibaadi Imaam

Q: In Oman local people follow an ibadi imam and they are not reciting sura's with sure fatiha in the first 2 rakats of zohar & Asr Salaah. Since im not praying with jamat (mostly 2nd jamath (not 1st jamat) inside masjid but juma salaah is not prayed on Friday) If the ibaadi imam leads the prayer during asr and zohar I pray separatly. 

Imaam leading the Salaah with his trousers below his ankles

Q: In the area that I've moved to, the imaam of the local Musjid leads the Salaahs with his trousers below his ankles. Does it diminish from the Musallis reward to follow such an imaam and is it permissible?

Also, after every Salaah, the imaam systematically makes the same short dua after reciting taqdeer once and istigfaar thrice, followed by Ayaatul Kursi, Tasbeeh-e-Fateemi, the fourth kalimaah thrice, and then the same lengthy dua after each Salaah. Is this allowed? And if not, Should I as a Musalli remain in the gathering so as not to create any conflicts with the locals, or rather just leave and perform my Sunnahs?

Performing Salaah behind an Imaam with a beard

Q: I am a follower of Hanafi madhab, I have 2 masjids to pray salaah during Zohar, Asar & Magrib Salaah in my office, kindly advise in which masjid I need to pray according to Hanafi.

Masjid1: Shafi Imam with Sunnah beard but Quraan recitation is not fully tajweed

Masjid 2: Hanafi Imam(Aalim) without Sunnah Beard (i.e. Trimming the beard) but quran recitation is fully Tajweed. 

Till now I am praying behid with Shafi Imam because his beard is according to sunnah.

Appointing a person who trims his beard less than a fist as Imaam

Q: If there is a resident Imaam of a Masjid, who adheres to the Sunnah outwardly and by Mazhab he is a Hanafi and another Imaam from outside who it seems as though trims his beard is a Shafi/Maaliki. The question is that can the Second Imaam who is not the resident Imaam be allowed to lead the Eid Salaah on the basis that the crowd that attends the Eid Gaah is generally Shafi/Maaliki? If not then will the sin of appointing him to lead the Eid Salaah be on the board members? As the resident Imaam had informed them that the sin will be on their shoulder and not his. Is this statement correct?

Imaamat of a person who cuts of ties with people

Q: I live in New Zealand and know that Qata Rahmee for the sake of Dunya is becoming common. I have seen that Imam of our masjid is good at Qata Rahmee. He has not spoken to many for months and years. This grieves me too much as he is not a common person. His place is much higher than a person like me but such act and that is only for petty things (Dunyawi matters) create bad impression. I need your help to know that the Namaz and the imamat of such Maulana is kamil or unacceptable especially since he is a person who knows all that?
