Penalty For Sexual Relations During Menstruation
DAILY FIQH
Question: What is the penalty for a man who had sexual relations with his wife while she is experiencing her monthly menstruation?
Answer: To have intercourse during menses is a major sin. It is necessary to repent and ask for forgiveness. Together with that, it is Mustahab (advisable) to give one Dinaar or half of it in charity. [The current estimated equivalent value of a Dinaar is +/- R2100] (17th July 2017)
وطء الحائض كبيرة لو عامدًا مختارًا عالمًا بالحرمة ، أو مكرها أو ناسيا، فالزمه التوبة ، ويندب تصدقه بدينار أو نصفه (الدر المختار ١/٢٩٧)

DAILY FIQH
Question: What is Awwabeen Salaah and how many Rakaats should be performed?
Answer: Awwabeen Salaah is performed after Magrib Salaah. Between six and twenty Rakaats may be performed, in units of two or four.
Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said:
مَنْ صَلَّى بَعْدَ الْمَغْرِبِ سِتَّ رَكَعَاتٍ لَمْ يَتَكَلَّمْ فِيمَا بَيْنَهُنَّ بِسُوءٍ عُدِلْنَ لَهُ بِعِبَادَةِ ثِنْتَيْ عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً ) سَنَن الترمذي ج١ص٩٨
" Whoever performs six Rakaats(units) of Salaah after the Magrib Salaah, without interrupting it with any evil talk, will receive the reward of twelve years of worship." {Tirmizi V1:P98}

Durood Ibrahim
DAILY FIQH
Question: What is the best Durood (Salaat & Salaam) to read in the final sitting of Salaah?
Answer: Sayyiduna Ka’ab bin Ujrah R.A. narrates that once it was enquired from Rasoolullah (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallim) as to how blessings should be sent to him. The Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallim) replied that the blessings be said in the following manner;
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ، وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَعَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ، اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ، وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، كَمَا بَارَكْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَعَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ ".
O Allah! Send Your Mercy on Muhammad and on the family of Muhammad, as You sent Your Mercy on Abraham and on the family of Abraham, for You are the Most Praise-worthy, the Most Glorious. O Allah! Send Your Blessings on Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as You sent your Blessings on Abraham and on the family of Abraham, for You are the Most Praise-worthy, the Most Glorious.'
