Witr and Nawaafil

Q: My question is about the speed of the recitation of the Qur'an during tarawih.

The accent is put on reciting the required amount of verses per night, but it seems nobody cares about  tajweed. In fact for some Asian people, the quickest you recite, the more great you are. That makes asians qurra' and 'ulama look terrible in front of arab scholars, who might not recite the whole qur'an but their recitations are alright.

With Ramadhan coming in summer season and with short nights, these recitations will become the norm. And finally there exists this trend of reciting the Qur'an in one night, where tajwid rules are literally butchered, some 'ulama say it is haram to do so, what do you say on this?

Q: In a book I acquired in 1978 called kitaab-us salaah printed by the young men's Muslim association which has been my guide ever since. I have now recently discovered the performance of Salaatul lail which is not mentioned in this book nor have I performed it previously. Can Mufti please throw some light on this.

Q: If a person is not sure how many times he recited the tasbeeh in Salatul Tasbeeh, should he recite the tasbeeh a few extra times or should he just carry on and remain in doubt?

Q: What is the mas’alah regarding taking money for leading the Taraaweeh Salaah during the month of Ramadhaan? In the country I live in, most people performing Taraaweeh accept the money and gifts that people give them.

Q: I read a mas'alah on http://www.thejamiat.co.za/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id… below:

"It is not permissible for a Hafiz who recited Taraweeh to receive remuneration for his Taraweeh recital. His Salaat will not be accepted if he takes a fee or ‘gifts’ for his Taraweeh performance."

But In the Masjid of our village, people collect money for Imaam (he leads taraweeh), and give him at the last night when he completes recitation of Whole Quran. Is it correct to do what is being done in our village?

Q: Someone said that tashahhud is not required in witr salaah. Is it correct?

Q: If one does not know Dua-e-Qunoot and finds it difficult to learn it by heart then what should he recite in its place in witr salaah?

Q: Kindly advise me which are some of the best Surah's or Ayaat to be recited during Salaatul Haajat?

Q:

1. Could you please provide a hadith with translation  which proves that Prophet Sallalahu alaihe wasalaam recited durood and duaa in the first Qaidah of sunnat e ghair muakkadah salaah &  Sana in the third rakaah of sunnat e ghair muakkadah salaah as what the Fuqaha mention that the above method  is afdhal?
2. Is there a hadith which proves that Prophet Sallalahu alaihe wasalaam didn't recite durood and duaa in the first Qaidah of sunnat e ghair muakkadah salaah &  Sana in the third rakaah of sunnat e ghair muakkadah salaah?

Q: In a four rakaat sunnah ghayr muakkad salaah or a four rakaat nafila prayed with one taslim, if one reads in the first tashahhud after the durood ibrahimiyyah a masnoon dua does this entail sajdah sahw? Or is this permissible?
