Q: A person one day prayed Maghrib and it wasn’t valid but he didn’t realise until a few days later that the prayer wasn’t valid. Does he only have to repeat the Maghrib prayer or are there other prayers after this he has to make up because of sequence of prayers?
Q: If a person is performing Nafl Salaah and he makes several intentions, and thereafter he breaks his Salaah or it is nullified, what is the method of Qadha?
Q: If you have missed salaah for years but are now unable to make them up (qadha) because you are sick, what should you do? Is seeking forgiveness enough?
Q: When performing multiple qadha salah, does the qadha of the Witr have to come after the Isha qadha?
Example, you must perform the 4 rakats of Isha and then the 3 rakaats of Witr? Or is it permissible to read multiple sets of the qadha of Isha and then multiple sets of the qadha of Witr? So you read 4 rakaats a few times and then you read 3 rakaats a few times
Q: Do I have to makeup for salaah if it was led by a child who is not a mukallaf?
Q: I had many qadha salaahs and I had made the qadha of my witr salaahs before all my esha salaahs. Will the witrs have to be repeated, and if so, must I repeat just the witrs or the eshas as well?
Q: My husband passed away last year. The total of his missed salaah in his lifetime is 29 132. He asked that this be paid from his estate. If I cannot afford to pay this amount, what should I do?
Q: I have heard that one should pray Qadha prayer in solitude so that it should not be revealed to anyone that one is praying Qadha prayer. Is this true?
If so, then there is a problem that in a house where one does not get solitude and it is not possible in the mosque, then what should one do in such a case?
Then can one pray Qadha prayer in front of the family members or in front of everyone in the mosque.
Q: A man passed away, leaving behind his wife, a son, two daughters, a brother and a sister.
Let's say he left an estate valued at $100,000. He had verbally expressed his wish to give one-third of the estate to charity, but there is no written will.
How should his estate be calculated and distributed according to Islamic inheritance laws?
Additionally, because the deceased was ill for the last six months and suffered from dementia, he was unable to perform Salah (prayers) during that time. Should Fidyah be paid for the missed prayers, and if so, from which portion of the estate?
Q:
1. With regards to paying fidyah for the deceased person's missed salaahs, what is the minimum amount in the form of wheat?
2. An alternative to discharging the fidyah in the form of wheat or money is to feed one poor person 2 meals to their full for each salaah. Does it have to be the same poor person that is given two meals or can it be 2 poor persons given one meal each? Also, can one person be fed multiple times or given more than the stipulated amount of wheat? (E.g. Giving him 6 meals or a 10kg bag of wheat)?
3. How would fidyah be calculated if given in the form of rice or maize?
4. Are their any criteria for the recipients of the fidyah? Do they have to be Muslim and can children be fed as well or do they have to be adults?
5. As these calculations come to quite exhorbitant amounts, is it permissible to discharge the fidya in a country where the price of food is cheaper such as India, and does mufti know of anyone in India who can assist us in having this done?
