Salaah

Forgetting to recite a Surah in the third rakaat of Sunnat Salaah

Q: I performed the four sunnah of Asr salaah however in the 3rd rakaat I forgot to read a Surah after Surah Fatiha only realised this in ruku. I intended to make sajda sahwa but after the 4th rakaat I read the tashahud, durood and dua and made both salaams. Whilst making the second salaam I remembered the sajda-e-sahw and immediately made a sajda after then completed the Salaah. Was I correct or did I have to repeat the Salaah?

Forgoing Salaah

Q: I want to ask that I am a university student and often it happens to me that I miss prayer due to classes. So I want to ask that how I can I perform my prayers after the time of that particular prayer has ended?

Tahajjud Salaah

Q: I want to know is it compulsory to sleep before performing tahujjud Salaah? If a person is awake till 3 am, can he/she then perform the Salaah? I have heard from many people that it's necessary to sleep before.

Qasar Salaah

Q: I was born in Jeddah. I have been living in Riyadh for almost 13 years. A little while ago, my family and I decided to visit Medinah, then after 13 days of visiting Medinah, we would visit Makkah. We live in a home provided to us by the hospital (as my father is a doctor) for over 9 years. Now, in 7 days' time, we will visit Makkah insha'Allah. The question is, during this period of time, so we have to offer Qassr prayer or normal 4 rakahs of prayer?
