Reward for Salaah with Jamaat and Salaah after using miswaak

Q: It is stated in the Ahadeeth that if one performs his Salaah with Jama'ah then he receives up to 27 times more reward than one who doesn’t perform with jama'ah.  It is also mention in ahadeeth that one who perform salaah having used Miswaak prior to performing wudhu, he would receive 70/72 time more reward than one who performs salaah without using miswaak. 

Therefore, do the relevant ahadeeth suggest that one who performs Salaah having used Miswaak, will receive greater reward than that person who performed his Salaah with Jama'ah (not using miswaak)?

I have had this confusion in my mind for a while.  Please enlighten through your superior knowledge.

Obtaining the intercession of Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam)

Q: What is the reference for the following Hadith and can we tell people the virtue contained in it?

The Messenger of Allah  (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) has said ‘whosoever recites ten duroods upon me in the morning and ten duroods in the evening, my intercession will definitely reach him on Day of Judgement".

Could you explain the reference of this Hadith and whether it is authentic?

Spitting in the direction of the qiblah

Q: What does the following hadith mean and is the hadith sahih?

عن حذيفة أظنه عن رسول الله -صلى الله عليه وسلم- قال « من تفل تجاه القبلة جاء يوم القيامة تفله بين عينيه ومن أكل من هذه البقلة الخبيثة فلا يقربن مسجدنا ». ثلاثا. (أبو داود #3826)

Practising Deen entirely from the time one accepts Islam

Q: At the time of the Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam), some laws of Islam were revealed in steps, for example regarding the prohibition of alcohol. I saw that a part of a Hadith of Aisha (Radiyallahu Anha) says that "If the first thing to be revealed was: 'Do not drink alcoholic drinks.' people would have said, 'We will never leave alcoholic drinks'". My question is: is there any consideration given also to the situation of converts to Islam in our time, or do all rules of Islam become binding on them directly? For example, a woman that has lived all her life “freely” by travelling here and there, speaking to people of the other gender etc, will niqab and purda become obligatory on her the same moment she converts to Islam or will it be permissible for her to follow some more lenient rulings during a transition period, e.g. by only wearing a scarf covering the hair?
