Safar

Musaafir mistakenly performing 4 rakaats Zuhr Salaah while leading a congregation for an entire week

Q: If a musaafir mistakenly leads a congregation in Zuhr Salaah for an entire week whilst performing 4 rakaats, and only realizes after that, then what is the status of the other musaafirs' Salaahs - those who performed salaah behind such an Imam?

Will their Salaah be valid/complete due to the passing of time?

Calculating safar distance from the boundary of one's town

Q: Please advise on the following with regards to qasr salaat. I reside in the Phoenix area and go visit my in laws in Umzinto which is about 90km from Phoenix.

Phoenix is in the Ethekwini (Durban) municipality which extends from Tongaat in the north to Umkomaas in the South and to Camperdown in the West. Where do I count the boundary, from the town of Phoenix or from the Ethekwini municipal boundary? Umkomaas to Umzinto is about 20km but it is about 70km from Phoenix. Please advise.

Musaafir muqtadi making the intention of four rakaats behind a musaafir imaam

Q:

1. If during traveling, an Imaam makes intention of qasr Asr but the muqtadi, who is also a traveler, mistakenly made intention of four rakaats. Will the muqtadi need to repeat the salaah (two rakaats qasr) or the niyyat of Imaam will be the one to supersede over that of the muqtadi and the muqtadi’s salaah behind the Imaam will be valid?

2. As a muqtadi, since I was not sure of the above, I repeated the Asr and prayed two rakaat qasr, was this action, in cases of doubts, correct until I come to know the right maslah?
