Question: Is it necessary to make an intention at night for a Nafl fast? 

Answer: It is permissible to make the intention for a Nafl fast until an hour before mid-day. If, for example, until 10am a person did not have an intention of fasting and had not consumed any food or drink until then and thereafter he decides to fast, the fast will be valid.

Question: Is it permissible to curse specific individuals who are tyrants or disbelievers?

Answer:  It is not permissible to invoke a curse upon a specific person, whether he be a Muslim or a Kaafir.  The essences of a curse is that a person be distanced from the mercy of Allah. One should never desire that for a Believer. As for a non-Muslim, there remains the possibility that he/she may believe before death.  Hence it is not permissible to curse a specific living person. 

 It will, however, be permissible to curse a particular individual who died as a Kaafir, e.g. Firoun, Abu Lahab, Abu Jahal, etc. Similarly, it is permissible to invoke the curse of Allah on liars or oppressors in general. [Shami 3/416]

Question: If a male is performing Salaah at home, is it necessary to call out the Adhaan and Iqaamah?

Answer: For every Fardh Salaah, it is Sunnah Mu'akkadah that the Azaan be called out. If the Azaan & Iqamaah has been called out in the area or town Masjid and one is reading Salaah at home, it will be Mustahab to again call the Azaan & Iqamaah. [Bahishti Zewar Page 137]
