Salaah

Q: 

1. If the latecomer joins the Imam in the first or final tashahhud for even a moment, then does the latecomer finish his tashahhud before rising up (for either the third unit, or to complete his missed units)? If the Imam rises quite soon after the latecomer joins him in the first tashahhud, then is it a factor that the latecomer may be behind the Imam? 

2. A latecomer makes the opening takbeer while the Imam is in the first tashahhud. If the Imam begins to rise for the third unit while the latecomer is going down, what does the latecomer do? 

3. A latecomer makes the opening takbeer while the Imam is in his final tashahhud. If the Imam says the first Salam while the latecomer is going down to join him, what does the latecomer do?

1. What's the boundaries of Durban? Like a person leaving Overport, when will he start counting? And when returning if he stops in Pinetown, will he read qasr? And what about if he stops in Sherwood? 

2. In each direction where will he read qasr? So if he is going north up the coast where will he be able to read qasr? Going south on the n2? And going north on the N3? 

Basically what's the boundaries of Durban.

Q: I have heard that one should pray Qadha prayer in solitude so that it should not be revealed to anyone that one is praying Qadha prayer. Is this true? 

If so, then there is a problem that in a house where one does not get solitude and it is not possible in the mosque, then what should one do in such a case? 

Then can one pray Qadha prayer in front of the family members or in front of everyone in the mosque.

Q: Can chaast salaah still be performed at 11 am in the morning? I get my break from work at that time but is it permissible at that time?

Q: If sitting down and performing sunnat of Fajr, after the last sajdah of the salah, one puts their hands up again for Surah Fatiha, but remembers before reciting anything, and then goes to continue tashahudd, should a qadha be recited for this salah? And should one have made sajdah sahw in such a case .

Q: What is the ruling on reciting Durood Shareef after the Dua of Qunut in Witr prayer? Should it be recited or not? 

Some say that it is recommended - what is their evidence? And can the general public/people be encouraged to do so or not?

Q: Is it permissible to perform salaah with one's sleeves folded but the sleeves don't go above the elbows? Meaning the elbows are covered but the sleeves are folded.
