I also have to transport her to and from school and work as we only have one car. Often the only prayers I make on time are Fajr and Isha.

Is it permissible to recite Ayat (verse) al-kursi in one Rak’ah of Salah? Ayat al-kursi consists of only one Ayat and I have heard that one should recite at least three verses from the holy Quran in one Rak’ah of his prayer.

If a Muslim is in outer space or on another planet, how should he go about-facing Mecca while praying? In the movie pitch black, the Muslim characters look up while praying from the surface of another planet.
