A non-virgin woman who is divorced doesn't need a wali's permission to marry again but may do so out of respect.

Either way is permissible as long as one doesn't do so in a non-Islamic way. One could for example message a sister directly and ask her to speak to her family.

This is allowed unless doing so would be considered as a type of disrespect or mocking for Muharram which is highly unlikely. Also provided that one doesn't swim somewhere where the environment could be haram

If she can maintain hijab and stay with the Islamic boundaries, then there isn't an issue. If for example there may be some activities such as music and singing, she must avoid such things and only partake in activities which don't go against Islamic teachings and hijab.

Bismillah, 

Both women and men should perform ghusl al-janabah after penetrative sexual intercourse (also inclduing anal intercourse). 
 

Also if a woman has an orgasm or climax without sexual intercourse, then the ghusl al-janabah should be performed. It's worth noting that this type of ghusl would make one in the state of wudu so one could perform Salah after the ghusl without doing wudu again. 
 

if a woman is aroused causing some fluid or discharge, this wouldn't make ghusl al janabah obligatiory unless she reached climax. 
 

May Allah Grant You success

Firstly I commend you for trying to keep up  your Salah while working in an environment which can be difficult and limited in space. 
 

If you are shia Muslim, washing the feet isn't needed; one simply needs to wipe the feet which can be easily done while sitting in a bathroom. Also wearing make up for women in front of non mahram men is not permissible according to most ulema and the make up should not be that which would block one's wudu by preventing water reaching the skin. It could be possible one makes wudu before applying make up however this could be difficult to hold until Salah time. 
 

Also it's possible to delay your Salah until landing if it wouldn't become qada if that would be easier. In some cases, you could wait to pray once you reach a prayer of hotel room.

Bismillah, 

Asalamu Alaykom, 

If your marja and her marja require the father's permission, then you cannot contract the mutah marriage. The majority of maraja state that a Virgin girl must seek the father's permission for any type of marriage. You should perhaps try to get permanently married and try to convince the father to accept. 
 

 He may see that temporary marriage is not in the benefit of his daughter and that permanent marriage is more in her favor. This is usually the case as some sisters may do mutah thinking the man will later on permanently marry them but this does not happen and it can make it hard for her to later permanently marry due to the views of her Muslim Community and society

Bismillah, 

Asalamu Alaykom, 

Firstly I pray that you may come out of the current situation you are in and that you may be blessed with the best of houses.
 

The example you have mentioned would not permit one to shorten their Salahs and doing so would make your Salah incomplete. You should try your best to make sure that you are praying each Salah in full unless you are able to shorten with the correct conditions.
 

These salahs would not be valid as they are incomplete. in terms of combining if you mean praying Asr after zuhr, and isha after Maghreb, then this is always valid regardless of where one is.

What you heard is completely false. The Prophet Mohammad (sawa) is the greatest of all creation and if anyone puts someone above his status, they are out of Islam. Such a belief would also contradict the ahadith of the shia which clearly state not to put anyone above Rasullah (sawa)
