Finding a food particle between one's teeth after performing ghusal
Q: I did ghusl, but afterwards I found out that there were some food particles in my teeth. Do I need to do ghusl again or just rinse my mouth again?

Q: I have heard that oil prevents the water from reaching the roots of the hair. Now I am confused. If oil is applied to the hair will the ghusl be valid or do we have to use shampoo or soap to remove the oil?
Q: I have got a fat pimple or wound, which is still open. Its on my hand. It does not bleed when it is dry but when water passes on it, it gets wet, and water sits on it. When I put a tissue on it, the tissue gets stained with a dot of red or yellow colour, a little bigger than a dot. So my question is that since its on my hand, how do I do my wudhu? And the water that touches the wound is paak or napaak?
Q: In an automatic washing machine we just have to put the clothes and the detergent and it automatically fills water and washes the clothes as well as it automatically drains the water after washing. Will the impure clothes become paak or pure? Some scholars say that washing impure clothes in an automatic washing machine does not make it paak.
Q: I understand that a Ma'zoor has to renew his wudhu for each salaah.
1. My question is that when the time for fajr ends, can I make a new wudhu as soon as fajr ends or do I have to wait for the sun to completely rise.
2. When does this wudhu end (from sunrise to what time)?
Q: If the salah time is about to end, should a person make tayammum and perform salaah or should he search for water and make qaza of his salah?
Q: I am a male and I follow the Shafi'i madhab. I need some advice for the following problems: I get clear sticky leakage in little amounts from the male organ and I cannot be sure when it will come out but I know it's bound to come out at some point. I always try to make instinja before wudu but even then the leakage is random and it occurs everyday at different times without any arousal. This problem really hinders my worship because I fear that if I make wudu and walk to the masjid it would come out and not feel it because most of the time I cant feel it come out. When reading Quran it may also come out and then I don't know it. When Jumuah comes around I fear that my wudu would break before jumuah salah then I don't even know it. I'm not sure if I'm excused or not. If I am an excused person what is the difference between the Shafi'i and Hanafi way. I once wiped my phone with methylated spirits because I needed to stick on a screen protector. Is my phone napak?
Q:
1. I live in a complex and the gardeners have over the weekend put fertilizer on the grass. I am not sure what fertiliser it is but I do know that some fertilisers contain animal faeces. With everyone walking all over the complex the fertiliser is now on the floor on many of the passages and common areas. I have tried my best not to walk on it but am not certain if I have been successful. Please can you let me know the following:
a. If I have stepped on it does it make my shoes and everywhere I subsequently walked (e.g. in my home and car) napaak?
b. Can my kids still paly and walk on the grass, given that the fertiliser has been put on or will it make their shoes and clothes napaak?
2. I sometimes leak urine, therefore I wear a sanitary pad so not to make my clothes napaak, when I sit somewhere for a long period of time or sleep, I perspire. I am therefore concerned that given that urine is on the sanitary pad when I perspire between my legs this is making my bedding or the chair that I am sitting on napaak. Please can you let me know if this in fact the case and whether I have to clean these items every time this happens?
Q:
1. Today I found a lizard in the utensils cupboard and in trying to kill it, it hid inside the cupboard and traveled from one to another. I did not know where it went, so I took out all utensils. Still I did not find it. I washed all utensils of all the cupboards by pouring water once. It took around 3 to 4 hours in doing all the effort. I am not worried that if I place the utensils again and i find it again, do I have to wash all the utensils again? It was really so hectic. Is lizard najis?
2. A cockraoch ran over my leg in the washroom. I poured water over there three times. Had I become paak? I read in an islamic website that a cockraoch in the washroom is napaak. Is it true?
3. Last year a mouse used to come from Indian toilet and roam around the washroom. We somehow managed to get rid of them. But once a shirt piece of my suit fell down over the washroom floor place where it used to come every night. I washed it many times but I don't feel like wearing it as I feel that the mouse used to come from such a dirty place with traces of dirty water from the flush and my cloth fell down on the floor. Am I doing right by not wearing it?
Q: If a male had an op and the wound is in a bandage and then he has intercourse with his wife, how will he make ghusal as he cannot remove the bandage since water cannot be put on the bandage or the wound? Will masah be made over the bandage.
