I live in a non-Muslim western country and genuine non-Muslims sometimes attend the Jumu‘ah (i.e. Friday) prayer with us.

They argue that it is not conditioned for the one giving the.. More
Some people listen to the Khutbah (sermon) and pray outside the mosque during the Friday prayer (on the sidewalk or in the street) due to the crowd inside.

Salam alaikum, Ihave two questions regarding "Fatwa No 177145". 1. You said, that it is not allowed to engage in things before prayer, which are unnecessary, when prayer time is near to expiry. Does it also apply to sunan, which are related to the prayer itself? For example, you would recite the seeking of refuge from shaytan or the basmala before al-fatihah... More
As Salam Alaykoum,Recently I would get lots of Waswas from shaytan and I tried removing them by reading, hearing learning the Quran eveyday and learning more about the dinn and going to the masjid for almost every prayer when possible.

I incidentally saw dry traces of semen on my underwear. This means that I must have had a wet dream, but I did not feel it. I cannot remember when this happened. What is the ruling on my prayer, fasting, and recitation of the Quran if my wet dream happened some time ago, maybe two days back, since the last time I made ghusl (ritual shower for purification)?
