Salaah

Q: I want to ask a couple of questions regarding qadha prayers.

1. What should be my niyaah when praying qadha namaz and what time of the day should I offer it?

2. How should I offer my qadha prayers, given that I have the following ones left? (I have only made an estimation, because I don't remember the count exactly): Fajr-4, Zuhr-6, Maghrib-1, Isha-Salaat-ul-witr of 2-2.5 years (around 800)

3. Do I need to offer all of the witr prayers or is there any alternative to it? I request you to outline the complete method, so that I can offer them as quickly as possible.

Q: I would like to find out if we can give Azaan with shoes on.

Q: What is the duration of zawaal, sunrise and sunset?

Q:

1. The musjids are closed, can I perform Jamaat at home with one wife, son 12 years, 2 daughters 11, 9 years old?

2. Can I perform Friday prayers with family holding Khutba and all? Musjids are closed due to cronavirus.

Q: Is it possible to make intention during nafl salaah that the nafl salaah be accepted for any qadha salaahs that one may have - specifically qadha salaahs that one may not be knowing of e.g. when ghusl after menstruation has been delayed or when a salaah may not have been performed in a state of wudhu unintentionally or one's ankles/hair may have been exposed, thus rendering salaah invalid?

Q: I missed one rakaat of jamaat salaah. I would like to know if sajdah-e-sahw should be made or not in the following cases after the Imaam made salaam to end the salaah:

1. I made one salaam on the right and then stood up to complete the missed rakaat

2. I made both salaams on the right and left and immediately stood up to complete the missed rakaat

3. I made both salaams and sat in the same position, and after one minute I stood up to complete the missed rakaat.

Q: In the recent wave of Corona virus everyone is directed to use mask regularly. My question is do we have to remove mask for prayer because when we do sajda our forehead and nose are supposed to touch the ground. So shall we remove the mask for prayer? Or if we keep wearing mask then our nose won't be touching ground due to wearing of mask.

Q: For the four rakaats sunnah before isha, do we pray in pairs or four rakaats with one salam and for the four rakaats after esha is that in pairs or four rakaats with one salam and what intention do we make for these four rakaats?

Q:

1. Regarding any nafl salaah, I would like to know if it is permissible to read the qiraat aloud, for purposes of dhor?

2. If it is, should one perform the salaah as though leading a jamaat, i.e. say takbeer for postures aloud, etc.

3. Do the same rules above apply for qadha salaah as well?

4. What are the rules for performing nafl salaah in jamaat, e.g. with one's spouse or household?
