Q: I normally refer to the sunrise timing from the salah timings in Dubai which I Google. However sometimes there are differences of sunrise timings when compared with calendars. Some say 6:19, some state 6:17, some say 6:15.
So if I finished my Fajr Salah at 6:17am, which exact time should I use. I get confused which table should I refer to.
Q: My father is ill and unable to perform his salaah. I understand that I cannot perform the salaah for him. Is there any other way for me to cover up his salaah for him, and if so, how much will it cost to pay for his salaah? We estimate around 50 years without salaah. He has a house which just got paid off to the value of approx R800 000 and a car to the value of approx R40 000.
Q: Is saying transitional takbeer (Allahu Akbar) when going to ruku, sujood, qiyaam obligatory upon the individual praying behind an imam or can he just follow the imam.
I have performed many prayers behind the imam and I thought I wasn’t obligated to say the takbeer besides takbeer al ihram. Would my previous prayers be invalid otherwise even if I were unaware?
Q: I was sitting after performing salaah when I noticed that there is a black, sticky substance on my foot through which water could not pass. It was the size of a whole round fingernail, and I had not seen it before.
Then, my brother told me that he saw it since 3 or 4 days on my foot. I had also led jamaat during these days. Will I have to repeat all the salaah that I had offered on these days? Will those who followed me in jamaat also have to repeat their salaah?
