How To Carry The Deceased
DAILY FIQH
Question: How should the bier of the deceased be carried?
Answer: Four people should carry the four legs of the bier. They will walk briskly without shaking the deceased.
After taking a few steps, the person who is carrying the bier with his right shoulder by the right shoulder of deceased will move back, so that his right shoulder is now by the right foot of the deceased.
Thereafter, he will move to the front on the other side, so that his left shoulder is by the left shoulder of the deceased. He will then move to the back, so that his left shoulder is by the left foot of the deceased. This is the prescribed method of carrying the bier.
فاذا حملوه على على سريره اخذوه بقواىمه الربع ويمشون مسرعين دون الخبب ( القدوري ١٩٤)
وكيفية الحمل: ان تضع مقدم الجنازة على يمينك ثم موخرها علي يمينك ثم مقدمها على يسارك ثم موخرها على يسارك ، إيثارا للتيامن ؛ كذا في الهداية )

Four Sunnah Before Zhuhr
Question: If one misses the four Sunnah before Zhuhr - when can one make it up?
Answer: The four Rakaats before Zhuhr are Sunnatul Mu’akkada (i.e. an emphasized Sunnah which Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wassallam regularly carried out and emphatically encouraged others to do). If one missed these Sunnah Salaah, he should perform it after the Fard, provided that it is done within the time of Zhuhr Salaah. Once the time passes he may no longer perform it. [At Tashil Ad Daruri Part 1/ Page 75]

How To Cleanse Impurities?
Question: If the body or clothing is soiled with impurity, what is the method of purification?
Answer: If the impurity is visible, then the body or clothing must be washed until the body of the impurity is removed.
If the impurity cannot be seen (urine or filthy water), then it must be washed until the person’s overwhelming feeling is that it has been purified. (At-Tashil ad-Daruru Part 1: Page 40)

Islamic Status of Topi (Islamic Headgear)
Question: What is the status of a male wearing a Topi (Islamic headgear)?
Answer: It was the habit of the Messenger Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam to either wear a Topi only or a Topi with a Turban. Hence, wearing a Topi or a Topi & Turban is Sunnah. Love of Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam demands that we strive to adopt every Sunnah.
عن ابن عمر رضى الله عنه قال ؛ كان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يلبس قلنسوة بيضاء ( مجمع الزوائد ٥/١٤٩)
عن ابن عباس رضى الله عنهما ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم كان يلبس القلانس تحت العمامة (مرقاة المفاتيح ١/١٣٥
