Q: Nowadays we use a prayer time chart but we hear from Darul Uloom Deobond that this is not accurate and they quote a hadith that for calculating the time of Esha salah we have to calculate the time difference between the rising and setting of the moon in every 3rd day of the current lunar month. Suppose the difference is 1 hr 47 minute then Esha will be 1 hr 47 minuets after Magrib for the same complete month and the process will continue. What is the truth?
Q: Is ishraaq and chaast salaah the same or we should read both because I am regularly reading ishraaq but chast I read some times. Someone said it is the same, if you read it in the early morning it is ishraaq and if you read it later than it is called chasit. Please explain.

Q: For Sunnah Salaah does one have to make it with the niyyah of the Fardh Salah one is praying it for? E.g making niyyah that I am performing 2 Sunnah of Zuhr?
