Salaah

Q: I travel 150 km daily for work. Should I pray qasar or normal?

Q: Can we delay isha after midnight? If not, what is the last time to pray isha?

Q: I am inquiring regarding the prayer of an old woman in her 80s, who forgets daily essentials. For example, she forgets when it is time to eat food or did she already eat or not etc. She forgets her family members, for example if any name of her daughter or grand child is mentioned to her then she would hesitate to say who that person is; family member or stranger. But if she is reminded then she would know the person but again in a minute she would forget completely.

If she hears the Azan being called out then she quickly starts getting ready for salah and performs according to the best of her ability. Then, if she hears another masjid calling azan ~15 minutes later for the same prayer, she prays this salah again because she thinks she hasn’t prayed this salah yet.

Is this woman obliged by shariah to perform her five daily prayers? 

Q: Can small children (non baaligh) stand at the end of the adult staff where an adult cannot stand due to musalla being small?

Q: In the final sitting if one says: اللهم صل على محمد وآله وصحبه وسلم, is the prayer valid?

Q: Is it correct that with regards to Salaah of a woman whose haidh ends after reaching her destination (Safr distance) that she should follow her husband and perform Qasr Salaah.

Does this apply to all Mahaarim?

If this is not correct, what is the correct ruling.

Q: I prayed salah from puberty with proper wudhu but without ghusl for 7 years because I was not aware of the masalah of ghusl. Should I reperform those salahs?

Q: Can a woman only where a scarf whilst performing salaah? The hair is exposed in front?

Q: Is it permissible to pray the two sunnah e muakadah of Esha before the fard as well as of Zuhur and Magrib?

Q: What is the correct procedure when a Hanafi imam makes mistakes or gets stuck during qiraat of the fardh salaah? It occurs often with our imam reciting his weak portions in our fardh salaahs with many times him repeating the same aayat 6/7 times as he cannot continue. Are we allowed to correct? Or should he proceed into ruku? Even if someone does correct he tends to need the same lukhmah a few times before continuing.
