Various masaail of Jamaat Salaah and Imaamat

Q: If I miss saying "​Aameen" when the Imam finishes Surah Faatihah, will it affect my namaz? 

Q: At what stage should the Imaam commence reciting the Takbeer when going into ruku and sajdah? Should he commence as he changes posture or is it permissible for him to recite this Takbeer after going into ruku or sajdah? 

Q: I want to ask about my prayer. Can I pray at home as my mother is bedridden for the last 5 years and she needs a lot of care the whole day; from eating, drinking, changing, etc. like a toddler. Its very difficult for me to join fard prayer on time. Please advice.

Q: It has been observed in madaaris, khanqaas, marakis and masaajid in general that students, mureeds, mamoors and general musallies at the time of iqaamat forego their place of the front saff by stepping backward into the second saff to give preference to the ustaad, shaikh, ameer or another Muslim in general, to take their place in the front saff. At times these individuals are in the saff well before hand. On the other hand the one given preference comes much later or even a short while before salaah. Can Mufti Sahib please explain if it is correct to do this? Can one forgo one's reward for another? Please shed any other information you have on this subject.

Q:

1. I just wanted to ask that if I, as the son lead my mom in prayer while she stands directly behind me, is that fine?

2. If I make my nephew stand with me or my son who has not yet reached the age of puberty yet in Salat, will it still count as if I did my Salat in Jamat? Will I get the rewards mentioned for praying Salat in Jamat. 

Q: When I was in my prayer (I was waiting for the Imaam to end the prayer with salaam) in congregation,

1. I needed to use the washroom urgently. In that condition, is it permissible to end the prayer by myself and go to the washroom, or is it not permissible?

2. My stomach was well. If my stomach had been upset, would it be permissible to end salaah before the Imaam (the same act which is asked in Question 1)?

Q: If a person comes lates to the masjid and misses the jama'ah, will it be best for him to:

(a) perform salah individually in the masjid or

(b) go home and perform a jama'ah together with his wife or mother?

Q: I have a ghair muqallid relative. He doesant adhere to a madhab and he was saying how is my Salaah accepted if I don't recite faatiha in quiet Salaah behind the imaam. I gave him the verse of the Qur'an to prove but he said how can the imam be heaed if he is quiet. He confused me. Please clarify what should I do? I sometimes doubt.

Q: Should a person recite faatiha if he joins the Imaam in the third and forth rakaat?

Q: Is it permissible for a person performing Nazar Salaah to follow a person offering Fardh Salah?
