Assalaamu alaykom. When we arrived at the mosque to pray the congregational prayer, the imam had already made the final salutation, but we saw some latecomers who caught some units of the prayer, my question is: What is better: form a second congregational prayer, or take one of the latecomers as our imam.

Praying on muddy ground in workplace
Assalaamu alaykum, Shaykh. I work as a security guard in America in a construction area. The problem is that when the time for prayer comes, I do not find any place to prostrate as it is all filled with rocks and gravel and mudd. So is this a good reason to pray on a chair while still performing the other pillars of the prayer that I am able to do,.. More

Praying with retainers in mouth
Assalaamu alaykum. Can I pray with my retainers inserted in my mouth? I have been having pronunciation issues ever since I adjusted my jawline, and due to the shape of the retainers, they may actually make it easier for me to pronounce my words.

Mistake in saying 'Rabbana wa laka Al-Hamd' in prayer
Assalaamu alaykum. I have noticed during prayer that my instinctive response when the imam says 'Sami Allaahu liman Hamidah' when rising from the bowing position is to say 'Rabbana wa lana Al-Hamd' instead of 'Rabbana wa laka Al-Hamd'. I am trying to make it my instinct to say the proper reply, but sometimes do not paying attention and then when I go.. More

When there is a funeral, we announce through the loudspeakers of the masjids who passed away and when and where the funeral will take place. Is it permissable.. More

Sujood as-Sahw and Tasleem according to Hanbali School
Assalaamu alaykum. I know when the prostration of forgetfulness is due in prayer, but please teach me what to read and how according to Imam Ahmad Bin Hanbal's School of Thought.
1. Let us say that two prostrations of forgetfulness are performed after reading the Tashahhud only? Or should that be after Tashahhud and Darood? Or after Tashahhud, Darood,.. More

With reference to fatwa 105182, it was mentioned that a person must pray two days worth of Qadha prayers, each day, in order to not be considered negligent.

Small part of woman's legs or arms revealed in prayer
Assalaamu alaykum. If I wear loose pants during the prayer, then the leg holes at the bottom are loose as well, so when I prostrate, if someone stands behind me and lies down and puts their face close to the floor, then they might be able to see a little bit of my leg by looking inside the leg holes, would that invalidate my prayer? Similarly, when.. More
