Q: I am a follower of the Hanafi Mazhab. At the Haramain the Witr prayer during Ramadaan is conducted in Jamaah. At times they pray as 2 + 1 rakaats and sometimes as 3 rakaats. Also they raise their hands during Dua-e-Qunoot which during the night of Shab e Qadr and the night of Quran Khatam which is on 29th night of Ramadhan the Dua e Qunoot goes on for approximately half an hour.
Please advise in the circumstances narrated above:
(1)What type of Niyat should I make for Witr namaaz not being sure whether it is going to be 2 + 1 or 3 rakaats together?
(2) should I also raise the hands during Dua e Qunoot which we normally do not do in Hanafi Mazhab.
In the huge gathering it is practically difficult to move away and not participate in the Witr.
Q: Does reading in salaah "Rabbana lakal hamd" with qalqala at the end break the salaah?
Q: What are the general reprimands and warnings in the Ahaadith against general worldly chat whilst the Adhan is going on?
Q: Should one cease individual recitation of Qur'an and Dhikr whilst Adhan is taking place?
Q: I read Suratul Kawthar reading the letter "th" with a letter "sin" does that break salaah? I read in a fatwa that it does, true or wrong?
Q: In my 'Asr Salaah I recited a verse of Surah Faatihah and whilst reciting I thought I made a mistake, and thought I'd repeat that verse and I didn't
stop reciting until I finished the verse, and then I recited again, but during the verse in which I thought I made a mistake, I was like “Shouldn't I stop?" But I carried on until finishing that verse; now I wonder, does this count as a purpose addition in prayer by finishing the verse in which I thought to have made a mistake? And is my Salaah valid?
Q: If one arrives in the musjid during the first rakat of fajr salah, and one still needs to perform his Sunnats, should he rush to complete his 2 Sunnats so as to try not to miss a rakaat or should he take his time and miss the rakaat?
Q: I know that the sutra of the imam is counted as the sutra for the followers, making it ok to pass in between the rows of the followers. But what if the imam has no sutra, will it then be impermissible to walk in between the rows of the followers?
Q: I am a Parkinson's disease patient. Parkinson's disease is ageing of the brain before time. I am now at a stage where I am unable to go to masjid, I pray at home and it is not easy. I keep having problems concentrating. On the days that my condition worsens my lips hardly move as I end up doing tilaawat in my heart. I sometimes forget which position I am in, usually forget what I have prayed. Often go to sleep and forget which rakah I am on. I try my best to repeat (sometimes until the end of salaat time) I feel helpless. Is my salaah valid? In the above situation could I perform my salaah lying down and how would I do this?
