Jumuah

Q: I try to follow Imam Abu Hanifa's (rahimahullah) madhab here in USA. Please provide reference for my heart to be satisfied. The following are my questions

1. How many Sunnah mu’akkadah are there in Salat ul Jummah? My understanding is 4 before the fard and 4 after the fard.

2. Can we pray Salat ul Jummah 4 Sunnah mu’akkadah as units of 2 rakat or do we have to pray all 4 rakat with one taslim in the end?

3. Do we have to recite Quran after surah Al fatiaah in 3rd and 4th rakat of 4 Sunnah mu’akkadah (if prayed with one taslim in the end)?

Q: I am working on a ship and I cannot come to shore for a minimum of 5 months. Is it permissible to perform Zuhr instead? I am the only Muslim on the ship. Please guide me.

Q:

1. I am working on a ship where I am the only Muslim. Please guide me on how to perform the Jum'uah salaah and the Eid ul Fitr and Eid ul Adhaa salaah.

2. Sometimes, I cannot find the qiblah direction. Is it okay for me to perform salaah facing in any direction?

Q: The Khateeb in our district Masjid in the Arabic sermon - khutbah, he reads it as "fakheemil ithm" instead of "ism". A scholar says that this is totally incorrect as Naoozoobillah you are saying that Allah Ta'ala commits great sins. The Khwateeb was asked to correct it, but doesn't do it. He continues to recite in this manner.

1. Is it true that the meaning actually changes and it can lead to kufr?

2. Should the Khateeb be allowed to continue giving the khutbah if he fails to correct this mistake?

Q: Is it true that there is no jumma salah for women? If in the past I read jummah in jamat, do I have to repeat the salah?

Q: I know that if you miss three Jumuah salaah, Allah Ta'ala will place a seal on your heart. I am a student and I only have Friday and Saturday as holidays. Is it ok if I miss just one Jumuah salaah (not three) and go back to Jumuah the next week?

Q: Is it allowed to say salam and durood to رسول الله صلي الله عليه و سلم during the Friday khutbah, especially if the Khateeb asks us to send salam.

Q: If I pray Zuhr as a musafir on Friday, and then come back to my home town when there is still some time remaining of Zuhr time, will Jum'ah salah become binding upon me?

Q: What's the masnoon dua and preferred sunnats during the two khubahs in the Jumma Salaah?

Q: I would like to find out what is the significance of sitting in the tashahud position while listening to the khutbah (with ones hands on ones lap). I witness it on jummah's often.
