Imaam pausing during salaah due to crying

Submitted by user2 on Sun, 2019-06-16 08:19

Q: During the Friday prayer, the imam paused two times during the recitation of Surah Faatihah, and once during the recitation of another surah. The pause was longer than the time it takes to say 3 times سبحان الله , and it seemed that the imam was weeping. Will the Friday prayer be valid?

Performing Salaah with jamaat at home

Submitted by user2 on Tue, 2019-03-19 08:07

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).

Large gap between saffs in jamaat salaah

Submitted by user2 on Tue, 2019-02-26 07:18

Q: For the saffs of the men, we understand that there should be continuity, and a gap larger than 2 saffs between saffs will cause the link to be broken, thus the salaah of those behind the gap will not be valid. (In the situation where there isn't any river, etc. inbetween).

What is the ruling regarding saff continuity for ladies? If a masjid has a room at the back, but between the last saff of the men and the women's room is a large gap, would the ladies salaah be permissible behind the imam? (assuming all other conditions are fulfilled such as the imam making niyyat for leading the ladies).
