Witr and Nawaafil
Performing nafl salaah before the fardh of Fajr
Q: After the Fajr Azaan one is only allowed to perform the 2 Sunnats. If we performed our 2 Sunnats of Fajr after the Azaan at home then when we enter the Masjid:
1. Can we perform 2 Rakaats Tahiyyatul Masjid or will it fall away?
2. Can we perform other Nafl Salaah during this time before the Fardh Salaah commences?
Performing salaah in the musjid if it is nearby
Q: I am praying taraweeh in a place where five times prayers are offered throughout the year but not the Jumuah prayer. It is a small place with fixed Imam.
Can we pray Esha here or should I pray Esha in a bigger nearby masjid and then go there for taraweeh?
Reciting other duas in the Qunoot of witr
Q: In Mabsoot and Sharhu Mukhtasarul Kharkhy, it comes that qunoot of witr is not a specified dua but it should be as long as Surah Taariq. One Aalim says that if you are in a rush, you can just read rabbana aatina dua, so is this correct? Is it being as long as Suraah Taariq waajib?
Facing the left side and reciting the dua after the witr salaah
Q: Is there any hadith or fiqh'hee ibaarat which states that the dua after Witr Salah (Subhaanal Malikil Quddoos) should be read while a person is still facing the left side upon making the second Salaam?
Performing the witr before going to sleep
Q: It was the practice of Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) to read his witr salaah after he slept and woke up for tahajjud. I would like to follow this Sunnah, however there is fear that I may not wake up for tahajjud and miss my witr.
Is it permissible and will I get the same reward as following a Sunnah of Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) if I delay my witr till before I go to bed, read my witr and then sleep? Do I get the reward of following Sunnah?
The eclipse being a sign of Allah Ta'ala
Q: What is the correct understanding of an eclipse and performing Salaatul Kusoof?
Is this a warning of azaab? Is it something a person should look forward to seeing? What should be told to children?
