Salaah

Q:

1. How many saffs (rows) can we cross while in the state of namaaz in order to fill the front saffs (rows)?

2. How much can we move horizontally in the same saff (row) in order to fill the gap?

Q: If a person arrives late for salaah and notices that the saff of the children is going to join up with the sufoof of the adults, should he move the children to the back? 

Q: When I offer namaaz in the masjid, when going into sajdah, many peoples heads touch the feet of the person in the front row. Whats the ruling on it?Does it affect the namaaz in any way?

Q: Is sleeping while azaan is going on haraam?

Q: How should sajdah-e-sahw be performed?

Q: I have a lot of gas when I wake up in the morning for fajr. It is almost an everyday thing. Sometimes the feeling for breaking wind is strong and I pray the fardh prayer first then the sunnah 2 rakahs in case I miss the prayer if I have to break my wudu. Is that valid given my situation of having lots of gas in stomach?

Q: If one is physically able to make it to the musjid but has a contagious disease (flu, measles etc.) must he attend?

Q: I understand that if a person is in a Musjid-e-Kabeer, he may pass in front of a musallee, provided there is one saff or more between him and the musallee.

1. Does this rule also apply to a jamaat khana or a musalla that is equal in size to a Musjid-e-Kabeer or larger than it?

2. Does this rule apply in the sehn that is joined to the Musjid-e-Kabeer but is not regarded as part of the musjid?

Q: Does one have to make qadhaa of sunnah salaah?

For example, if a person misses the sunnah salaah for Zuhr, and performs 'Asr, should he perform the qadhaa of Zuhr sunnats?

Q: Can we employ an Imaam who doesn't follow the four most prominent mazhabs as the Imaam of the musjid? Can we perform salaah behind this Imaam and would it be valid? Can the non mazhab Aalim teach in a Hanafi madrasah?
