Imaan

Having love for Hazrat Muaawiyah (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) and all the Sahaabah (radhiyallahu ‘anhum)

Q: A few days ago, Salmaan Nadwi of India passed away. Some people were praising him, whereas he was a person who spoke ill of the Sahaabah (radhiyallahu ‘anhum) – especially Hazrat Muaawiyah (radhiyallahu ‘anhu). He made many derogatory statements about Hazrat Muaawiyah (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) and disgraced him. Is it permissible to praise this man seeing that he reviled the Sahaabah (radhiyallahu ‘anhum) and Hazrat Muaawiyah (radhiyallahu ‘anhu), and he showed them great disrespect until the end of his life?

Renewing one's imaan

Q: If you see a Muslim doing kufr by mocking Islam as an example or doing something else that is kufr, then he later does the 2nd kalima, perhaps for wudhu, but then gets informed that what they did in the past was kufr, is it fine if they just repent without doing the 2nd kalima again? If they don't, are they considered as disbelievers?

Actions to repeat after re-entering the fold of Islam

Q: If someone does kufr or shirk (but later makes tawbah and comes back), do they have to re-do all of the following? 

- previous valid zakat 

- previous valid fitrana+qurbani 

- previous valid prayers + fasts (what if they were in the middle of making up many years worth of qadas?) or can they ignore it and focus on the present and future acts they must do?
