Salaah

Q: Can we read two (2) separate Surahs in one rakat of a farz namaaz? For example, I read Surah Kafiroon and Surah Ikhlaas in the first rakaat of Fajr farz namaaz. 

Q: A person used to be a thief and had stolen over $100 000. He does not have any of the wealth left and has about 7 years of qadha salaah. He has reformed his ways and wants to gain nearness to Allah Ta'ala. How does he compensate for the $100 000 he stole? How does he perform the 7 years qadha salaah in a timely manner?

Q:

1. If one prayed salaah while wearing clothes with a human picture which one missed to see and saw only after looking at them carefully, would those salaahss be valid? Does one need to repeat those salaahs?

2. What about praying salaah in clothes which have clear human/animal pictures?

3. If one prays next to or in front or behind someone wearing such clothes or wearing a work ID with visible picture of the person (around 2 inches in lenth and 2 inches in width) would the salaah be valid due to being in close proximity of a picture?

Q: Its been 7-8months since I’m not praying regularly like most probably 3-4 times a day. For the last 2-3 weeks I’m not getting any fear of Allah and not praying regularly. I’m also feeling bad about not praying but still I’m not getting that fear and praying. Please can you suggest some tips.

Q: How will qadha be read for: Fajr, Zuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Esha?

Q: Will salah be valid if there's najasat less than the hollow of the palm on one's clothing?

Q:

1. If I missed the prayer with jamat, can I pray with my family members (wife, sons, daughter) at home?

2. Can I miss the congregation prayer at the masjid and pray in congregation at home because the imam of the masjid makes masah on normal socks?

3. If I am sure that I will miss the jamat, is it compulsory to go to the masjid and pray alone or second jamat?

4. I hear the azan and iqamat and complete namaz but I am very tired to go and pray in the masjid, can I pray at home later with my family?

5. For Asar prayer, instead of praying with jamat in a Hambali maslak time, can I delay the prayer and pray (alone or with my family) at home after the Hanafi maslak time begins. (I listen to the complete azan and iqamat and jamat from the masjid's speakers).

Q: Sometimes when I'm offering my salaah, my kids start to argue with each other or start reciting some surah. As a result my attention gets diverted. In this situation I read Allahu akbar (when going into ruku or sajadah) in a bit loud voice to stop them from disturbance. Is this a sin?

Q:

1. Is it compulsory to pray sunnat-e-muakkadah namaaz immediately after finishing the farz namaz?

2. Can I pray farz namaz with jamat in the masjid and then go home and pray the sunnat-e-muakkadah namaz?

Q: I am working on a ship for 6 months at a time. Sometimes we go from America to China and I cannot find the qibla. On sea, our normal application does not work properly so it is difficult to find the qibla. I am performing salaah without knowing qibla direction. Is it permissible?
