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.

Is he sinning while.. More

Imaam does not leave time for congregation to recite al-Faatihah
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

Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu. Specifically regarding the Iqaamah (second, small call to the prayer), not the azan.

View of Maaliki school on impurity in prayer
Assalaamu alaykum. When does the domino affect of wet impurity end? Otherwise everything can become impure! If you have a lot of problems with impurities, can you follow Maalik, who I believe said that impurity does not make the prayer invalid? If you did follow him in that, would you have to follow all Maalik's rulings related to the prayer.
