Assalaamu alaykum.

Our honourable scholars, assalaamu alaykum, my question is about this hadith: Whoever catches a Rak'ah (unit of prayer) of a prayer before its time has expired has caught the entire prayer in its time.
Abu Hurairah reported that the Prophet, sallallaahu ʻalayhi wa sallam,said, "Whoever catches one Rak'ah of the prayer has caught the prayer.".. More
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.

Is he sinning while.. More
