Q: While in sujood, can I make dua in my own language? For example, I ask Allah's help for my work, or ask for betterment for my family's health or ask for jannah? If yes then in nafl sujood only or even fard/sunnah?
Q: In a video I have heard a scholar say that if a person, whether a man or a woman, only prays namaaz during Ramadaan but does not pray the rest of the year is a Kafir. Is it true that if a person does not offer namaaz the whole year but only prays during the month of Ramadaan is a Kafir?

Q: I wanted to ask that, I must have bled a little from my finger which I didn't know about. I saw it after I put clean clothes away and it seemed dry. I don't know if this blood touched my clothes that I was wearing or the clean clothes I put away or anything I my have touched and with most clothes being black it's hard to tell.
1. Please can you tell me if I need to wash the clothes again or would they be considered pure?
2. Is my namaz counted in the same clothes I was wearing?

Q: From your Namaaz chart (http://muftionline.co.za/node/11013) I have seen that there are total 15 rakaats in Esha salah. But I have heard that there are total 17 rakaats in Esha salah i.e. 4 sunnah, 4 fard, 2 sunnah muakadah, 2 nafl, 3 witr and 2 nafl. Please clarify.
Q: It has been observed in madaaris, khanqaas, marakis and masaajid in general that students, mureeds, mamoors and general musallies at the time of iqaamat forego their place of the front saff by stepping backward into the second saff to give preference to the ustaad, shaikh, ameer or another Muslim in general, to take their place in the front saff. At times these individuals are in the saff well before hand. On the other hand the one given preference comes much later or even a short while before salaah. Can Mufti Sahib please explain if it is correct to do this? Can one forgo one's reward for another? Please shed any other information you have on this subject.
