Various masaail of Salaah

Q: Is there any Hadith that states why there are 2 sajdahs in Namaaz and only one ruku?

Q: In the hanafi mazhab, what is the status of making a single sajdah out of namaaz. I have seen many people do this. I have tried to explain to some that a single sajdah should not be made rather a coplete 2 raka'aat should be read but they don't understand. The reply they give is, "I cannot make a sajdah of shukr?" Should they still be told? And if so, how should they be explained?

Q: Is it permissable to pray in multi faith prayer rooms, such as the ones they usually have at airports? These rooms are mostly used by Muslims but also some non-Muslims use them for praying and apart from Islamic material they also contain bibles and books of other religions. The question came to my mind since, if I remember it correctly, we are not allowed to enter into buildings of worship of other religions?

Q: Someone asked me the following question saying that he was put in a situation when asked as to what is the reason for there being two sajdahs in each rak'at of namaaz?

Q: Our work has a makeshift prayer room with a toilet and hand basin in it - is this acceptable? The room is alongside the female toilets and a meeting room and noises carry through the wall into the prayer room - is this a problem? I use a disabled toilet close to the prayer room (10 metres) and have used a plastic bottle for cleansing. The company has taken the bottle away as they say it is a safety problem. I suggested they instal a hand held bidet (like a shower hose) to remove safety problem.  But they want me to use another disabled toilet that is further away (more than 50 metres and through many doors) because they don't want to upset disabled people. How far away should cleansing be from the prayer room?

Q: In salah, can we repeat the translation of holy quran in the heart for the sake of khushu n khuzu?

Q: I have noticed that in certain Masaajid, where a protruding mic is used as compared to the clip-on mic, the Imam swerves in a crescent like motion as he proceeds from Qiyaam into Ruku. Again, when he returns from ruku, this swerve, clear and deliberate, like a crescent motion , is repeated, again, when he proceeds into Sajda and when eventually returning to Qiyaam, in each and every Rakaat, whenever moving in or out of Qiyaam, this swerve motion is clear and deliberate and apparent. In Some Masaajid, the protruding mic which is positioned lower for the sajda also requires this additional deliberate swerve motion too so this is a new but clear and deliberate 'additional swing motion' to avoid hiting the mic, which has been specifically positioned directly in front of his mouth. Although his chest does not move from the direction of Qiblah at all, this does seem like a new, foreign and additional motion in Salaah. Please comment in general as well as specifically whether this affects the value and or validity of this Jamaat salaah, as it is a 'new norm' of Salaah adopted by the Imam out of necessity, to avoid hitting the mic as he moves from one position of Salaah to another.

Q: What is your opinion on this:

It shows the rakats prayed on near the place of the sajdah, so the one praying can see the number of rakats he has prayed. But according to hanafi fiqh reading and understanding such as from a piece of paper during salaah is makruh? I heard in a lecture that Aisha radiAllahu anha would switch her ring from finger to finger to keep the rakaats in record. And also the qawl of Ibrahim an Nakhai that there is no harm in doing so. True?

Q: What is meant by not receiving the reward of salaah?

Q: I'd like to know if it's true that it's good to change places when we do salaah, because on the day of judgement, all these places where we did salaah will testify for us? For example, in a same home, I do fajar in the bedroom, zohar in another room and so on? Please enlighten me on this subject.
