Q: If a tourist want to travel at 9:30pm and destination to be at 6:30am. In this case how a tourist can perform fajr Salah without ablution assuming there is no water and the bus is unstoppable unless it reaches its destination? Note: Distance covered 450km.
Q: I have a problem waking up for fajar and most of the time I don't wake up for the Salaah. I really feel very embarrassed why I can't wake up for fajar Salaah. Please give me any dua or wazifa which can help me in waking up for Salaah. I will be grateful.
Q: I work from 2:30 till 10:00pm and salaah is at: Asr 8:00, Maghrib 9:16, Esha 10:00. Where I work is on a production belt so one can't just walk off for salaah. I could possibly only be able to read Asr. What do I do? I am so worried the company can't work around this issue. I am regular in salaah.
Q: A brother travels on an aeroplane for 19 hours from point A to B. He does not perform any salaah on the aeroplane. When he reaches his destination he makes Qadha of the Qasr salaat he missed. Is what he did permissible?
Q: I suffer from a sever depersonalisation disorder. It prevents me from praying with reverence. I want to pray and I am now trying to memorize as much as I can of the holy Quran. I am so sad I want to pray but I can't feel that while I am praying I am standing between in front of Allah Ta'ala. I have been struggling with it for 7 years and I always make dua' and do everything I can to stop it from letting me live a normal life. I want to know what should I do? Am I being a bad Muslim because I keep skipping prayers?
Q: I am from the UK and currently in school. I am baaligh and unfortunately the school does not facilitate for us any place for Salaah. What should I do? It is compulsory to attend school but what can I do if they don't allow us to pray Salaah and we have lessons during Salaah time. Now in winter, we will definitely miss Asr Salaah. They don't allow you even for 5 Minutes to go pray and come back. Please advise me.
Q: There are various scenarios in which there could be difficulty in me performing Salaah at its prescribed time (of which I have noted four examples below):
a) Being kidnapped and held at gunpoint for a couple of hours
b) The little room in my workplace (which the hierarchy of the company have allowed me to use for Salah during my break times) being occupied by others for a one-off meeting they are having
c) Bleeding from a wound or a cut for a couple of hours
d) Waking up about 15 minutes before Fajar time ends to find that nocturnal emission has taken place and realizing that there is not sufficient time for me to have a ghusl and pray Fajar.
My questions:
1. If I become a person of Taqwa, it is absolutely impossible for any of the four scenarios mentioned above (or similar scenarios) from occurring? (The reason for asking this is that in a previous answer, Muftisaab stated that when Allah says in Surah Talaaq “And whosoever fears Allah and keeps his duty to Him, He will make a way for him to get out”, it refers to any difficulty that a person may be in. Surely this would also relate to difficulties in performing Salaah at its prescribed time).
2. Would I become a kafir if I believe or state that such scenarios could – on the rare one-off occasion – take place even if I fear Allah and keep my duty to Him? Having such a belief would surely mean that a person has rejected the second verse of Surah Talaq? Yes? No?
Q: If a person does other good deeds but he doesn't pray his five time Salaah, will his other good deeds be counted and accepted?
Q: We are university students in Canada who have final exams coming up. Some of which are from 2pm to 5pm. However, Asr Mithl to Maghrib is from 2:10 to 4:30. How should we pray our Asr Salah assuming we cannot pray during the exam?
Q: My question is if a person misses his or her salah does he or she become a kafir? Some scholars say that it is kufr.
