Jumuah

Q: Should Jumuah be prayed in USA or other non-Muslim countries or one should pray Zuhr instead?

Q: The problem is that my husband has gone to Bahrain for work after 2 years of our marriage and many hardships. Till now all was well, Alhamdulilaah, but since the last 4 months the manager of his company doesn't give him holiday on Fridays as well as he also doesn't allow him to go to jumma prayers. The manager is a non-Muslim. My husband tries to go for jumma by hiding but sometimes he can't. Whats the ruling regarding this? According to shafee mazhab, whats the ruling or any solution regarding it? There is no masjid near to the place where he works. So he has to go some 15 to 20 mins by riding bicycle. We don't want to go away from our deen..

Q:

1. On the day of jumuah, after the first azan, can I still have a bath and thereafter proceed to the masjid? Or should I just suffice on wudhu?

2. Which azan should I consider, the azan of my masjid which is a little later, or the azan of the jami masjid of my area which is earlier?

Q: I try to follow Imam Abu Hanifa's (rahimahullah) madhab here in USA. Please provide reference for my heart to be satisfied. The following are my questions

1. How many Sunnah mu’akkadah are there in Salat ul Jummah? My understanding is 4 before the fard and 4 after the fard.

2. Can we pray Salat ul Jummah 4 Sunnah mu’akkadah as units of 2 rakat or do we have to pray all 4 rakat with one taslim in the end?

3. Do we have to recite Quran after surah Al fatiaah in 3rd and 4th rakat of 4 Sunnah mu’akkadah (if prayed with one taslim in the end)?

Q: I am working on a ship and I cannot come to shore for a minimum of 5 months. Is it permissible to perform Zuhr instead? I am the only Muslim on the ship. Please guide me.

Q:

1. I am working on a ship where I am the only Muslim. Please guide me on how to perform the Jum'uah salaah and the Eid ul Fitr and Eid ul Adhaa salaah.

Q: The Khateeb in our district Masjid in the Arabic sermon - khutbah, he reads it as "fakheemil ithm" instead of "ism". A scholar says that this is totally incorrect as Naoozoobillah you are saying that Allah Ta'ala commits great sins. The Khwateeb was asked to correct it, but doesn't do it. He continues to recite in this manner.

1. Is it true that the meaning actually changes and it can lead to kufr?

2. Should the Khateeb be allowed to continue giving the khutbah if he fails to correct this mistake?

Q: Is it true that there is no jumma salah for women? If in the past I read jummah in jamat, do I have to repeat the salah?

Q: I know that if you miss three Jumuah salaah, Allah Ta'ala will place a seal on your heart. I am a student and I only have Friday and Saturday as holidays. Is it ok if I miss just one Jumuah salaah (not three) and go back to Jumuah the next week?

Q: Is it allowed to say salam and durood to رسول الله صلي الله عليه و سلم during the Friday khutbah, especially if the Khateeb asks us to send salam.
