Qadha Salaah

Q: My mum passed away a month ago and someone told me that we need to pay for any Salaah that she might have missed.  She was very regular with her Salaah, however, in the last few weeks before she passed away she became very ill and wasn’t able to perform her Salaah.  I’ve been told that we need to pay R10.00 for every Salaah missed.  Please would you advise whether this is correct and also how should this be paid, i.e. is it Lillah, Sadaka, etc. and which organization would be the best to pay it to or can we give it to someone who is poor.

Q: I have missed out many farz prayers in the past and would like to make up for them. Please let me know at which times is it not permissible to pray qaza namaz?

Q: If Salah is not valid, how does one then repeat it thereafter individually or what should be done?

Q: I have many years of qadha salaahs. I need to know if I can read my qadha salaah instead of the sunnah salaah. I know that when I am a musaafir, I am exempted from reading sunnah. What about when I am a muqeem? When fardh salaah is more important then sunnah, then please advise if I can read all my fardh qadha salaah in place of my sunnah of zuhr, maghrib and esha.

Q: I travel daily from Midrand to Witbank +- 110kms daily to work. I need to know whether the salahs I have to perform daily are in the Qasr state and also if I return home and if I have missed my salahs during the day I have to perform Qaza in a Qasr state.

Also if the Juma salah is missed then whether qaza for the fard salah is 2 or 4 rakaat.  (also in above state)

Q: Is it permissible to read qadha after fajr and after asr salaah?

Q: Someone missed Dhuhr for a valid reason, then without forgetting he did knowingly not make it up but prayed, Asr, Magrib, Isha+Witr, then next days Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr then Maghrib time entered, then he made his missed Dhuhr up. In this situation all the prayers he has prayed (before making the missed Dhuhr up) are they valid? Also what if he prayed Asr, Maghrib then Isha time entered then he prayed the missed Dhuhr. In this situation are Asr and Maghrib valid?

Q: With the Mercy of Allah, I have recently starting reading all my qadhaa salaah that i have missed since i became baaligh, this being a few years of salaah. I am able to read my fajr qadhaa before leaving for work, then my zohr qadhaa after performing zohr salaah, magribh qadhaa after magribh and esha after esha salaah. I have not been able to fit in my asr salaah as I am aware that one cannot perform any salaah afer asr. However, I have been advised, that if i am performing my qadhaa salaah then i can perform it after asr. Is this correct or permissable?

Q: Can a person read any nafl or qaada when tahajud time end before the fajr azaan.

Q: My friends insist that there is qadha for missed Salaah during haidh just like there is qadha for saum. I tried explaining to them that there isn't but all they say is that I am not learned and the learned have told them. Its reached a stage where they are calculating their missed Salaahs and making qadha of it.
