Qur'an

Q: Can I read the Quran without wudhu and without a head scarf? I read Quran from my phone in English transliteration as I cannot read Arabic.

Q: Hadhrat Musa (alaihis salaam) prayed to Aallah: Rabbish rah li sadri. Allah Ta'ala says to Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam): Alam nashrah laka sadrak. Here the main point is to open the chest. So please tell me what is the exact meaning of opening of chest?

Q: Is it allowed to use a smartphone whilst reciting the Quran?

Q: I am 18 years old and my father forces me to read Quran online for 1.5 hours every week at set times. I am busy in my studies so this is an annoyance to me and I think it's unnecessary because I have already finished the Quran and sill don't know it's meaning because I've never read it in English and I am reading it in Arabic again. Is this wrong of my father to force me into this? Is it minor shirk? 

Q: Is it permissible to give a non Muslim a tafsir of the Quran with ayat in Arabic? 

Q: Can we read Quran without wudhu. Is it farz to make wudhu before reading Quran?

Q:

1. What is the status of reciting surah Yaseen after Fajr and Maghrib (Sunnah/nafl)?

Q: Volume 6, Book 61, Number 512: Narrated by Al-Bara: There was revealed: 'Not equal are those believers who sit (at home) and those who strive and fight in the Cause of Allah.' (4.95) The Prophet said, "Call Zaid for me and let him bring the board, the inkpot and the scapula bone (or the scapula bone and the ink pot)."' Then he said, "Write: 'Not equal are those Believers who sit..", and at that time 'Amr bin Um Maktum, the blind man was sitting behind the Prophet. He said, "O Allah's Apostle! What is your order for me (as regards the above Verse) as I am a blind man?" So, instead of the above Verse, the following Verse was revealed: 'Not equal are those believers who sit (at home) except those who are disabled (by injury or are blind or lame etc.) and those who strive and fight in the cause of Allah.' (4.95) is this how revelations change, based on a blind man's question?

Why did not the all knowing Allah consider the verse in a perfect manner in its first verse?

Q: I have a question on behalf of my mother. She has been told that she cannot leave her Quran in her bedside drawer as it is below the level of her bed and she shows her back towards it whilst sleeping. I do not agree with it as she is not disrespectful (and it's above the ground), keeps it close to her so as to read more often during the night. Her intention is Paak.

Q: I am unable to get how Hafiz ibn Kathir explained Quran in detail in his Tafseer, ie. Introduction of new words like bin kind etc... From what source ibn Kathir rahimahullah learned these things, I am very curious to know about that.
