Making a mistake in tashahhud
Q:During tashahhud one says "..as salaamu alayna ayyuhan nabiyyu" instead of "..as salaamu alayka ayyun nabiyyu". Does this mistake invalidate salaah?
Method of Salaah

Imaam reciting "Rabbanaa lakal hamd"
Q: In Kitaab al-Asl of Imaam Muhammad it states that according to Abu Hanifa the imaam should not say "Rabbanaa lakal hamd". But in the same book Imaam Muhammad ask Abu Hanifa whether the Imaam should recite basmalah, amin and Allaahumma rabbanaa lakal hamd silenty and Abu Hanifa says yes. Why this contradiction?
Problem reciting a certain portion of Attahiyyaat
Q: I have a problem reciting a certain part of the Tahiyyaat in Tashahhud. The part is: "...wa alaa ibadillaah'is salihin.." I have trouble pronouncing the last letter "n" out. Is it also permissible to read that part as: "...wa alaa ibaadillaah as salihin.." ? Thus "ibaadillaah" and "as" seperately, instead of connected as "ibaadillaah`is"?
Reciting a longer Surah in the second rakaat
Q: Assuming in the first rakaat of witr, one recites Surah Lahab and Surah Ikhlaas in the second rakaat. Is it necessary to make sajda sahu as only Surah Falak or Surah Naas can be recited in the third rakaat but these Surahs are longer than Surah Ikhlaas. Likewise, in any other namaaz, if one recited a Surah in the second rakaat that is slightly or much longer than the surah recited in the first rakaat, what is the ruling?
Dua after Salaah

Hearing one's own recitation in Salaah
Q: When one is performing Salaah, is it necessary for one to hear his own voice and whatever he is reciting?
Minimum amount of Qiraat for the Salaah to be valid
Q: I started praying magrib alone before another brother joined me, so during the second rakaat I recited only one verse from the Quran (sura ghafir verse 44) after fatiha and went to ruku position. Since then I have been having doubts if my salaah is valid or not. If not what should I do because that brother is gone now.
