Q: A few weeks ago an email was sent under the heading azkaar after salaah. It mentions putting the hands on the head and reading for the removal of worry and grief. Can Mufti saheb please send me that azkaar.
Q: In the Holy Mosques of Makkah and Madinah, outside the mosques, there are big verandas (open space). It is seen that the people walk in these verandas with their footwear on.
1. Can we pray on the floor without a prayer mat?
2. Will our salah be valid?
Q: What is the ruling regarding jahari and sirri salah behind an Imam? Does the muqtadi (follower) recite anything in both salah?
Example: The last one and two rakats of Maghrib and Esha farz respectively. Should he recite surah fatiha or should he remain silent?
Q: Many women join the men in jamaat salaah in the areas outside Musjid al Haraam in such a way that they stand adjacent to the men. Is the salaah of the men and women valid?
Q: Nowadays, some people are performing salaah in the hotel near the Musjid al Haraam while following the jamaat of Musjid al Haraam. The hotel has speakers installed and the recitation of the Imaam of Musjid al Haraam can easily be heard. However, since the Imaam is not present infront of the muqtadis, I am doubting whether the salaah is valid or not. Is it permissible for people to follow the Imaam in salaah while in their hotel rooms? Similarly, is it permissible to follow the Imaam in the hotel jamaat khaana?
Q: My question is regarding the method of jamaat namaz:
1. If someone is offering namaaz with jamaat, should he be required to recite “Surah-fatiha” and a surah after that if the imam is reciting it?
2. Now in the case of Zuhr and Asr prayers (when imam is not reciting loudly Surah fatiha and Surah) do the people have to recite it or should they simply stand quiet?
3. In the last 2 rakats of a farz namaaz, I know that surahs are not recited after surah fatiha, I just want to confirm this from you?
4. If I join the jamaat in the rukooh of the first rakaat, I don’t need to repeat the 1st rakaat (this is what I understand); now when will I recite the thana “subhanakaALLAH...” ?
Q: Can you appoint a person who has the latest style short cut beard much shorter than a fist length to make jumah.
Q: Can the Imaam make a juma khutbah and perform the salaah with his scarf covering his face so much so that only his nose is exposed. When he goes into ruku the scarf hangs down both sides onto the ground.
Q: Is saying 33 SubhanAllah, 33 Alhamdulillah and 34 times Allahu Akbar after each prayer rewarding?
Q: If I prayed along with the imam and when he got up from ruku I got up along with him, I did not wait till he got up fully. Is my prayer valid?
