Salaah

Fidyah for a person who suffered from dementia

Q: A man passed away, leaving behind his wife, a son, two daughters, a brother and a sister. 

Let's say he left an estate valued at $100,000. He had verbally expressed his wish to give one-third of the estate to charity, but there is no written will. 

How should his estate be calculated and distributed according to Islamic inheritance laws? 

Additionally, because the deceased was ill for the last six months and suffered from dementia, he was unable to perform Salah (prayers) during that time. Should Fidyah be paid for the missed prayers, and if so, from which portion of the estate?

Good actions of a woman who travels without a mahram being affected

Q: There is a hadith about women travelling, Abu Hurairah (radhiyallahu anhu) reported: The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said, 

"It is not permissible for a woman who believes in Allah and the last day to make a journey of one day and night unless she is accompanied by a mahram (husband or male relative whom she is prohibited to marry)." (Al Bukhari and Muslim) 

According to the hadith, if a woman travels alone will her prayers not be accepted?

Missing salaah due to shopping

Q: If a woman is out with her family to a hotel to eat and went to a mall to enjoy some time... So what must she  do if salah time is due? She prayed asr at home and went outand now it's maghrib time and she can't pray because there is no women's prayer room in the malls or hotels... So what must she do in this situation?

If she does jama' salah in her home, like praying 4 rakah of asr and then 3 rakah of maghrib in the same time because she won't get a place to pray maghrib, is this correct?
