• Is it permissible to treat one's mother with severity if she does not pray, slanders, hates her son, and curses him, and does that contradict the teachings of Islam?
• Does my saying to my mother, "For God's sake, did you wake me up just for prayer?" constitute mocking prayer and lead to apostasy?
• What is the ruling on someone who prayed Asr twice by mistake, and what is your guidance for whoever mocks that?
• Who has more right to lead the people in Tarawih prayer: a Hafiz of the Qur'an who does not recite well, or one who recites very well but has not memorized the entire Qur'an?

• What are the mistakes that invalidate prayer and necessitate its repetition?
• What is the ruling on someone who added a prostration to the Dhuhr prayer and did not sit for the Tashahhud? Is he required to perform a pre-emptive prostration (sujud qabli) due to the deficiency, and a post-emptive prostration (sujud ba'di) due to the addition?

• What is the ruling regarding my mother's prayer, as she is unable to perform it correctly, forgets her invocations, and makes mistakes in reciting Al-Fatiha despite her ability to pronounce the emphasis (tashdeed)? She does not master Arabic and forgets what she has learned. What are the simple formulas she can memorize for her prayer?
• What should I do to avoid the temptation of women and return to religious commitment, especially since I find it difficult to interact with my wife due to not being attracted to her beauty, and I feel that my choice of her was driven by circumstances and fear of temptation, rather than complete conviction?
• Why is prayer invalidated if Surat Al-Fatiha is recited incorrectly, whether due to ignorance or forgetfulness, despite Allah overlooking mistakes and forgetfulness for the Ummah of Muhammad (peace be upon him), and His (the Most High) saying: "Our Lord, do not take us to task if we forget or make a mistake"?
• Is he sinful who delays the Fajr prayer, thinking that the time has not expired, while the time has in fact expired by a few minutes?
• Is the Imam rewarded more than the worshippers for the prayer, and does he bear their mistakes?
• Does the prayer become void by inadvertently inverting some letters due to an approaching memorization deadline, and is the reciter sinful for doing so outside of prayer? Does this fall under the forbidden inversion? Is it permissible to continue reading to aid memorization if a mistake occurs inadvertently, or must the prayer be repeated? Is it permissible to stop before the mistake, complete the prayer, and perform prostration without repeating it?
• Is one who prolongs the Sunnah of Fajr sinful if the time for the obligatory prayer expires unintentionally?
• What is the ruling on praying in a mosque where a barrier separates foreign worshippers from Malaysian worshippers, especially given the possibility that the Imam is a Sufi who sometimes makes mistakes in pronouncing letters, and considering that the Malaysian government has prohibited foreigners from praying in mosques to limit the spread of the epidemic?
