Q: With regards to Tawaaf, when making Istilaam (besides the 1st and last Istilaam) while making the remainder of the Istilaams in between:
1. Does a person stop and face the Hajre Aswad with his entire body face and chest?

Q: During the last Hajj, me and my mother went to Muzdalifah and performed Maghrib and Isha salah. Then our group leader told us to leave Muzdalifah as it was very crowded and he thought there will a lot of delay in getting the transportation back to Mina. So we left Muzdalifah before Subah Sadiqh. Is Damm wajib on me and my mother?
Q: A person is traveling to Jeddah and wants to go to Madinah 1st when he lands. Then:

Q: There are people who throw umbrellas, water bottles, shoes, etc. at the jamaraat. Please comment on this practice. Some say "Masha Allah" and praise those who do so.
Q: I had istihadha but not a mazoor. I placed cotton wool like a khursuf but only after completing my umrah and coming out of Ihraam I saw that it messed through. What will I do?
Q: There is a couple that recently came from hajj. They did all things correct but they have 1 doubt.
After coming from Muzdalifah, doing 1st rami, and cutting of hairs/halaq, they opened their ihram and after that they thought they are open from ihram and out of ignorance and oversight they did sexual relations just before tawaf e ziarat.
Tawaf e ziarat was done after gusal and proper clean cloths? Would they be required to give damm? If yes, will it be for both or just 1?
Q: This year while performing hajj, the Saudi Government directed the pilgrims to start performing the 12th dhul hijja rami after Fajr due to excessive heat and overcrowding to avoid any untoward situation. So, we performed the rami before zawal on 12th dhul hijja.
Is my hajj acceptable or do I need to perform anything to compensate for performing rami before zawal? Are there any rulings or views of scholars on performing rami before zawal?
Q: While in a state of Haidh, it is makrooh to remove unwanted hair/nails. However, I will also be entering into ihram during Haidh. Can I shave/trim nails when tying ihram? Is there any sin for having not shaved or long nails during ihram?
