Incorrect pronunciation in tashahhud
Q: I have one major problem during salaah and that is that I cannot pronounce in the tahiyyaat the last letter (n) of the word " as saliheen" especially during the first tashahhud. So I keep repeating it, until I manage to pronounce it. If I will recite it as "as salihee" without the last letter "n" would that be also valid and the meaning still correct? Or should I recite like "as salih" without "een" at the end, like the tanween we do not recite at end of ayaats?
Taking a breath after every Aayat
Q:
1. When reciting surahs in salaah, does one have to take a breath after every verse or can they just pause slightly and go onto next verse.
2. What if they stop and take a breath on a part they should not and carry on reading. Like in Surah Fatiha, I sometimes take a breath just before 'ghair ril maghdoobi alaihim' even though there is no pause there. Is my Salah ok in both cases?
Sunnah method of dua after Salaah
Q: Is it permissible for a muqtadi to offer dua after jumma namaaz instead of the Imam? Please advise.
Waking up to adjust one's leg while sitting in Salaah
Q: When I am Salah in the first sitting, I cannot point my big toe forward sometimes as it cramps up so I have to move forward and just sit with my toes on the floor. Sometimes I do it just before it happens even though it has not cramped up I do it in preparation for it. Will this be regarded as too much movement and invalidate my Salaah? I sort get half up and then readjust my toe and sit down.
