Question

Aslm Alkm

Question 1

When I make istinja after usrination I do the following:

- Keep my penis in my left hand and wipe the urine with toilet paper using my right hand until there is no wetness noticed on the toilet paper

- then I pour water and repeat the procedure until there is no wetness and then once again pour water.

By this method I am certain that no urine comes out as I don;t feel anything later on and can comfortabily do my wudhu etc.

Is this a permissible method?

Question 2

When I make salaah in jamaat the imam normally finishes fatiha when I still have say 3 verses to complete. I normally try to pronounce it as perfectly as I can. This causes me to feel stressed and once done in jamaat I sometimes reperform just because I feel it was fast and not appreciative to ALLAH. Can I do this and will I still obtain reward for Jamaat?

I am Shaafi.

 

Shukran
