Jamaat Salaah and Imaamat
Performing Salaah behind an Imaam with a beard
Q: I am a follower of Hanafi madhab, I have 2 masjids to pray salaah during Zohar, Asar & Magrib Salaah in my office, kindly advise in which masjid I need to pray according to Hanafi.
Masjid1: Shafi Imam with Sunnah beard but Quraan recitation is not fully tajweed
Masjid 2: Hanafi Imam(Aalim) without Sunnah Beard (i.e. Trimming the beard) but quran recitation is fully Tajweed.
Till now I am praying behid with Shafi Imam because his beard is according to sunnah.

Joining a second jamaat of musaafirs for Asr Salaah
Q: I went to a musjid late, when asr namaaz was over. However, I noticed a second jamaat taking place in the sehen,so I joined it. I got the last rakaat. So after salaam I completed my 3 rakaats. Now, after a few days, I discovered that the jamaat namaaz which took place was by musaafirs, so they read 2 rakaats, and I completed 3 rakaats, what is the condition of my namaaz?
Reaching into sajdah before the Imaam
Q: It takes our imam a bit long to go into sajdah, standing up from sajdah, etc. So what happens, for example, is that after qaumah, as the Imam goes down into sajdah, he says Allahu Akbar, and we also go into sajdah, but some of us reach sajdah before him. Is his and our salaah valid? Should we request him to rather try and do his postures slightly faster? I think it is because of his weight problem.
Joining Maghrib and Esha Jamaat in the last rakaat
Q: In a maghrib salaah, if I join the jamaat in the third rakat, the next two rakats do I have to recite a surah after surah fatiha? Do I have to sit in tashahud in both the remaining rakats? Similarly, how do I do it in isha if I joined in the last rakat?
