Is it permissible to shower late at night, such as before Fajr or Tahajjud prayers? I have heard that bathing at this time can be dangerous due to potential Jinn possession. Is there any truth to this belief?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Yes it is permissible to have a shower or bath at any time including Fajr or before Fajr or after midnight. There is no question of any danger and such claim of danger is baseless.

If the sunrise time for a location is listed as 6:40 AM on Google, when would Fajr time conclude? Would it finish precisely at 6:40 AM?

If someone wakes up for Fajr and prays at the masjid, should they make supplication before going back to sleep, or is it permissible to sleep without making any supplication?

It is highly recommended to recite Ta'beebaat and supplications after every Peater , especially after  Fajr Prayer. It is not obligatory but highly recommended.

Would it be more beneficial to prioritize completing my missed Qadha prayers over performing Salat al-Layl, considering that I currently make up for them by praying one Qadha Fajr Salah and another Qadha Salah daily?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

The reward of performing Qadha Prayer is greater than performing recommended prayers. No doubt, performing both is much better, but if you have no other option but perform either Qadha or recommended prayer,b then Qadha is first because it is obligatory.

Wassalam.
