How can I maintain consistency in observing the practice of Parda as an Indian Shia Muslim and a lover of Ahlebait, despite my current struggles and temporary attempts?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Being a Shia Muslim means you are trying to follow Lady Fatima (AS) and Lady Zainab (AS) and other great ladies from Ahlul Bayt (AS). These great models are the best models of piousness and noble values in the whole history of mankind. Your suffering in facing your surroundings will increase your reward and enhance you status in front of Allah (SWT). Always remember our Great leaders from Ahlul Bayt (AS), you will see then that every difficulty will turn easy for you as far as you are trying to follow the great ladies Fatimah (AS) and Zainab (AS).

Sincere believers have always faced challenges and hardships in the way of obeying Allah (SWT), but overcome and won when they continued seeking help and support from Allah (SWT) with the intercession of Ahlul Bayt (AS). Take the example of lady Asia, wife the tyrant Firaon and many other sincere believers.

Can men and women in Hijab sit together as a whole family during a wedding celebration and engage in singing songs without using music?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

It is not allowed at all. Singing itself is not permissible in any case even if the person is alone, what about with other gender. Family gatherings must be away from any sinful act.

I live in USA and I work in hospitals. I wear scrub pants and shirt and I am fully dressed and also wear Hijab but when I do my prayers can I do in pants or I have to change my clothes?
Zaid Alsalami

Bismihi ta'ala

As long as you are covered within the shar'i requirements for prayer, and your clothes are tahir, you can pray in those clothes, with no problem, in shaa Allah. 

And Allah knows best. 
Is it permissible for a husband, as part of a ritual after Nikah, to pray on the Chadar of his wife in a similar manner as a praying mat?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Yes it is permissible to pray on the Chadar of his wife like a praying mat if she allows him to do so. He is not allowed to do so if she does not allow him pray on her Chadar because she is the owner of the Chadar.
