Q: I read that in the 3rd and 4th rakaat of qadha salaah (zuhar, asar, maghrib and esha) you can pray subhaanallah three times instead of Surah faatiha and the Salaah will be valid and you will have fulfilled the right of the Salaah. Is this true?
Q: What is the correct manner of reading the dua after Salaah with regard to reading it loud or soft. Should the dua be made audible (loud) or inaudible (soft)? In our musjid the Imaam starts the duaa loud and reads the first part loud then remains silent and reads the duaa silently, thereafter he reads the ending of the duaa loudly again. Is this correct or is it a bid'a?

Q: I wanted to ask regarding takbeer tahreema for Salaah. I have learnt that it is necessary to say it loud enough to hear oneself otherwise the Salaah does not start. I want to ask, do you have to hear the takbeer clearly or is it enough to hear the sound? Also, if I only hear parts of the tahreema, and not others, will my Salaah be valid?
