Method of Salaah

Q: When performing namaaz, in the second rakaat before you say Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim, do you have to say Audhubillahi Minashaytanir Rajim first? Just like the first rakaat?

Q: I am a Sunni Hanafi. While praying four rakaat sunnah, I recite Surah Mutaffifin. I recite first 6 ayahs is first rakaat, ayahs 7 to 17 in second rakaat, ayahs 18 -29 in 3 rakaat and ayahs 30 to 36 in the last rakaat. Am I doing it correctly? Kindly advise.

Q: I require clarification on the following

1.During Dhuhr and Asr, when we say our Salaah in silence, must the Imam and the Musallis recite the Surah/Ayats in silence, each on their own or must the Imam alone recite the Surah/Ayats and the Musallis must keep quiet?

2.On Jumu’ah Day why is the Adhaan said twice instead of one as in the other days of the week?

Q: I just want to ask when praying where should I place my hands? Is it below or above the navel? I follow Imam Abu Hanifa. Jazakallahu khayr.

Q: In salah if I make a pronounciation mistake in sajda or ruku while reciting the tasbeeh first time or second time and if I correct it in the third time, will the salaah be still valid or the moment I make a mistake in sajda or ruku the salah becomes invalid. If the mistake happens in sajda or ruku, if I correct it the total tasbeeh becomes 4 times and in other sajdas it will only be 3 times. Does this difference effect the validity of salah and how to correct myself when I make mistake in sajda.

Q: Further to your advice that arms should be fully stretched during ruku' in Salat, please advise me further. I am a tall person with long arms, therefore in ruku' my back does not become horizontal without slightly bending my elbows. Am I excused from levelling by back, or it is not a requirement at all?

Q: I just wanna ask about the sunnat-e-muakadah before fardh of zuhr. I should perform it with salaam at the end and now my question is on the third rakaat am I only going to recite fatiha and also in the forth rakaat just like praying fardh or I should recite another surah in the third rakaat and another surah in the last rakaat after faatiha?

Q:

1. I just want to ask in the zuhr and asr salaah when you are behind the Imam are you going to recite the surah fatiha and then after fatiha do I need to recite another surah? Or only the surah fatiha?

2. Another question of mine in magrib and isha salaah on the first and second rakaat after we say ameen behind the imam, do I need to repeat the surah
fatiha silently while the imam is reciting another surah? I follow Abu Hanifa.

Q: Is it permissible to read surah qadr in the first rakat of salah and surah bayyinah in the second. What is the number of aayats that make a surah longer than another one?

Q: I just want to ask when is the perfect time to make du'a? Is it after salaah? I mean after you make tasbeeh or after performing sunnatul muakadah?
