Q: I need to confirm the rules pertaining to the reading of sunnat and nafil Salaah, etc. whilst an individual is a traveller and also while a person is visiting Mecca and Medina for 10 days each. Is there anything wrong if these additional Salaahs is performed whilst being classified as a traveller?
Q: Could you elaborate on the rules pertaining to Salaah being performed in the haram of Mecca and Medina.
Q: Due to travelling by bus for lengthy hours, can a Hanafi read his Asr after Zohr in the time of Zohr if he knows for certain that the bus stops occasionally for 2 mins only (which is insufficient time to perform salaah) & the next lengthy stop will be after maghrib. There is no place to stand & read salaah on the bus, there is place to sit. If Yes, he can perform the Asr early, then can he make jamaat in Zohr time with other passengers who are in the same position as him? & now, suppose the bus suddenly stops for 10 mins during Asr time (which is sufficient to read Farz of Asr), does the Asr performed earlier on during Zohr time become null & void?
Q: If a musaafir mistakenly reads four rakaats as Imaam of Zohr, should all repeat the salaah? What if he reads four rakaats intentionally?
Q: What is the Hanafi proof for making the heels touch in sajda? Is this applicable to followers of other madhabs as well?
Q: Seeing that people are hasty in salaah, should one enforce the reading of the Mustahab duaahs between the sajdas & after ruku or should one stick to the hanafi Madhab by reading these duaahs in the nafl salaahs & merely encourage people to be mindful of the Waajibaat etc?
Q: What should one recite in the four rakaats of Zuhr and Asr behind the Imaam according to the hanafi Maslak? Also, if one does not know dua-e-qunoot then what he should recite in witr prayers can he recite rabbana atina fiduniya 3 times or not?
Q: Is prayer valid behind a imaam who pronounces the letter TA as a D and the letter KAF as a G (the farsi GAF)? For example he recites "...ihdinas siraDal musteGim siraDallezine..."
Also on the soft sounded letters he reads the dammah as a german ü i.e. ue and not like u in umar. Also the letter DHAD he reads it sounding to Z.
Q: What is the Sunnah method of going down in sajdah? Should we go down into sajdah without placing the hands on the knees, or go down with placing the hands on the knees?
Q: In the area which I live in is a Barelwee Musjid. I read most of my salah in this Musjid. For Fajr Salah the Muazzin, who is a Shafi'ee, performs the Salah. The thing is that the trustees don't allow him to read Qunoote Naazila because they are Hanafee so he is forced to leave it out. I heard that Qunoote Naazila is like wajib for Shafees. I feel that the Salah is deficient so I read Fajr at home. Will it be better for me to read Fajr in this Musjid or should I continue to read it at home?
