Q: I have a lot of qadha salaah. Is it permissible to read all the fajr qadha salaah first and then all the zuhr qadha salaah and so on. Or should I read it in order: fajr zuhr asr maghrib esha fajr zuhr....

Q: During salaah, due to anxiety/anger because I heard someone in my family making unnecessary loud noises, I raised my voice in recitation a little. Is my prayer valid?

Q: In a few of my past prayers, I remember I had moments where I’d get confused or make a mistake during prayer due to being nervous and in those moments I’d cough or sniffle without necessity, as a result of embarrassment and me not wanting anyone around me to think that I was struggling during salah. Do these salah’s need to be repeated?

Q: In salah I mistakely thought women were supposed to point both toes towards the qibla in sajdah because I felt like I remembered reading an instruction which said that. My feet were both on the ground horizontally, however the toes were towards the qibla. I’d like to believe my past prayers were ok? Are prayers ok even if women follow the man’s way?

Q: We are going for Umrah. What will be the method to pray there... Can I Pray complete namaz or we can pray qasar namaz during our staying there?

Q: I heard in salah, errors to do with waqf dont matter. Does this apply to stopping in the middle of a word and then resuming?

I attempted reciting waladhaleen twice and every time between the ‘leen’ part, my voice stopped because of an obstruction in my throat. However, the third time I tried again and the same thing happened, after the pause, my voice came back a second later and finished reciting the remaining letters. Because I paused abruptly, is my salah fine?
