Hajj & Umrah

Q: From an Islamic point of view which city is better, Makkah Mukarramah or Madinah Tayyibah?

Q: I have witnessed some Muslim brethren offering Zam Zam Water to non Muslims after they return from Hajj or at other times at weddings. Is this allowed? 

Q: A person went for Umrah. After a few days he decided to go for ziyarat to Taif (up to Masjid Abdullah bin Abbaas radhiyallahu anhuma) from Makkah.

1. Was it necessary for him to return with Ihraam back to Makkah?

2. If yes, then what is the penalty as he is now back in South Africa. 

Q: I recently went for Hajj alhamdulillah and I benefited a lot from the audio bayaans of Maulana Saleem Dhorat sahib and also a guide to Hajj booklet by Maulana. May Allah Ta'ala reward him abundantly aameen. It so happened that when we got to Muzdalifah, and after performing our maghrib and Esha prayers, we had something to eat and slept. Our group leader told us to get ready to move and we left Muzdalifah for Mina before Fajr. I was the only Hanafi. I had no alternative but to follow. So as I missed the wuquf from Fajr onwards, is dam wajib on me? 

Q: There is one family and they want to go for umrah but they dont have enough money to go for umrah... So I told them that I will send them for umrah... I just wanted to know what is the fazeelat/benfits from Allah if someone sends another for umrah?

Q: Will my wife be halal for me if I do not perform tawaf ul wida and go back to my country?

Q: If a person wears ihram at the airport and offers 2 rakat ihram salaah and then makes niyyat in the aeroplane before passing the meeqat, is that correct?

Q: I wear a wig due to baldness. I am proceeding for Hajj. Please tell me if I am allowed to wear the wig under my hijab for ihraam. 

Q: I have come for hajj second time with intention to perform hajj-e-badal for my deceased father. My question is that while doing niyat and saying talbiya for hajj, will it be done on behalf of my father by taking his name or what will be the correct procedure?

Q:

1. During hajj, on the 12th, if rami is done early in the morning instead of after zohar then what's the kaffarah?

2. If I mistakenly applied soap on my hands in ihram then I washed it quickly but there was still a slight smell on my hands then what's the kaffarah?

3. If 3 or more hairs fall by itself in ihram then what's the kaffarah? Should it be paid in the boundaries if the haram?
