Q: We are curently performing Esha Salaah and Taraweeh Salaah at our home. The closest Musjid is about 4-5 kms away. There is a musallah which is 2 kms away. Someone mentioned to me that it isn't permissible for us to perform the esha Salaah at our home. We have to perform Esha Salaah at the Musjid and then return home to perform the Taraweeh. Please advise?
Q: To recite attahiyaat is waajib in the 1st sitting of 4 rakaats Salaah. If it is missed then sajdah sahw becomes waajib. Sometimes the Imaam recites the attahiyyaat very quickly and then stands up whilst many muqtadees have not finished their attahiyyaat. Should they follow the Imaam immediately or should they complete their attahiyyaat and then stand?
Q: What is the ruling regarding qiyaamul lail / shabeena which is read in jamaat after the taraweeh salaah as is taking place in certain masaajid in durban?
Q: Is it permissible in Islam to have a tattoo on one's body? I performed salaah behind a person who has a tattoo on his skin. Is the salaah valid?
Q: What's the status of the Salaah of the Imaam and the muqtadees if the Imaam is known to be a follower of a certain mazhab eg: Shafi, but when he goes on the musallah he performs namaaz like a Hanafi, when questioned why he does that his simple answer was "I don't want to confuse the people". What is the status of the muqtadis and Imaams Salaah?
Q: Is it permissible to read Salaat-ut-Tasbeeh in Jamaat.

Q: Is it permissible for a person to stand alone in a saff in Jamaat salaah? If not, then what should the person do in this situation?
Q: Are ladies permitted to stand in the saffs of the men in jamaat salaah. In Bahisti Zewar under the section "Prerequisites of Salaah" there is a masalah that says that the Imaam must make niyyat for a woman who intends joining the Jamaat Salaah if she is standing in line with the men. However if she is standing behind them, then the Imaam does not have to make niyyat for her. This masalah seems to show permissibility for the women to be in line with the men?
Q: Is it permissible to follow an Imaam whose trousers is below his ankles and will the Salaah be valid?
