I have come across differing opinions regarding the timing of Ghusl for Laylat al-Qadr. Some suggest it should be performed before Maghrib while others say after. Which is accurate? If it is before Maghrib, can it be performed at any time during the day?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Ghusl of Laylatul Qadr is highly recommended during the night of Qadr and not during the day before or after Laylat al Qadr.

Is it correct to break my fast at the time of Adhaan or after I pray Maghrib? If this practice is wrong, do I need to perform any expiation or repeat all my fasts?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

It is allowed to break your fast at the time of Adhaan of Maghrib. Although it is recommended to pray before breaking your fast. Recommended is not obligatory. You don’t need to repeat any fast.

Should I leave out the recommended acts during my Salah if my family rushes through Maghrib and Isha prayers during Iftar and scolds me for taking longer while I don't want to rush my prayers?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

If some one is waiting for you to join them in Iftaar, it is recommended to join them, then perform Salah. Joining persons who are waiting for you is more important than recommended acts un Salah.
