Raising hands before and after Rukoo’
Can we claim with 100% certainty that doing Raf'ul Yadayn (raising hands before and after Rukoo’) was never abrogated? Or is it an issue about which difference of opinions is permissible?

Pronouncing Takbeerat Al-Ihraam incorrectly
Assalamu alaykum. I was told recently that in the pronunciation of Takbeerat Al-Ihraam, onemust pronounce it 'Allaahu Akbar' and not 'Allaahuwakbar' or else it invalidates your prayer. I have much difficulty in telling the two apart, sometimes I repeat my Takbeerat Al-Ihraam because I cannot tell whether I said it right or not.

Assalaamu alaykum. I recited the Qunoot supplication wrongly in the Witr prayter; I missed one word, then I started it anew but still recited it wrongly. Is my Witr valid, or should I pray it again? Also, does the invalidity of previous prayers affect the validity of other prayers?

About Jilsat-ul-Istiraahah before standing up from prostration
Assalaamu alaykum. Shaykh ibn Baaz, in his book on the prayer, supports the view that Jalsat-Ul-Istiraahah(sitting before standing up) is recommended but that the person should not push himself up from the ground while standing up, but the hadith in which Jalsat-Ul-Istiraahahis mentioned says that the Prophet, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam,pushed himself..

The answer that you gave me in Fatwa No. 2627987, by referring to other two fatwas,does not answer my question. My question was regarding the Taraweeh prayer; the imam does not give us enough time to recite the Faatihah and immediately starts the verses/chapters in high speed in order to complete the Quran in 27 days. Because of the loud volume and.. More

Leaving gap between saying Allaahu and Akbar in prayer
Assalaamu alaykum. I know that when starting the prayer by saying Allaahu Akbar, you must not leave a gap between saying Allaahu and Akbar, but if I left a gap accidentally in a transitional Takbeer (saying Allaahu Akbar), would that be considered an incorrect pronunciation? Would I need to repeat it in a correct way? Additionally, I asked a question.. More

When to say 'rabbana wa laka al-hamd' in prayer
Assalaamu alaykum Shaykh. It has been mentioned that the Sunnah is for the one following the imam in prayer to not say, 'Sami' Allaahu liman hamida', so when does he start saying, 'Rabana wa laka Al-Hamd'? Should he start saying it in the upright position or while coming up? I hope that you understand what I mean? May Allaah reward you.

Placing right hand over left hand in prayer not obligatory
Assalaamu alaykum. Please do not cite other fatwas as I do not understand! In Fatwa no. 324355, you say, "Placing the right hand over the left hand in prayer is a Sunnah and is not obligatory." Is that true? Do you have any hadith(s) regarding the matter? Can we pray while our left hand is over the right hand?

Looking at index finger in Tashahhud
I am aware that one must look at the moving forefinger during Tashahhud. Do we have to start looking at it from the words, "At-tahiyyatu till the salaam continuously," or from the words, "At-tayhiyatu lillahi..." to the words "wa Ash-hadu anna Muhammadan Rasullulah," and then look back at the place of prostration? Another related question is: Is the.. More

Assalaamu alaykum. I read the following on https://islamqa.info/en/82627 concerning the Takbeeraat of movement: "So he should start saying Takbeer (saying: Allaahu Akbar) when he starts to bow and end it before he reaches the bowing position so that his Takbeer comes between the two postures of standing and bowing."
