If ejaculation occurred before Fajr of the night of Ramadan but Ghusl was still not done until after Fajr, will the upcoming fast be valid?
Zaid Alsalami

Bismihi ta'ala

If one had enough time, and intentionally did not perform ghusl before Fajr time, then their fasting for that day will be invalid, and they must redo that day as qadha` and pay kaffarah. 

If they did not have enough time, or it was not intentional for them to stay in janabah, then their fasting is valid.

And Allah knows best. 
Will my night prayer become invalid if I am mid prayer and it is time for Fajr? Can one make Qadha for the night prayer? And are there any Duas which could help me wake up easily for it?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

1.Your Night Prayer (Salat Al-Layl) is valid even if time of Fajr starts while you are still praying Night Prayer.

2.Night Prayer can be performed as Qadha and it is recommended for those who missed it to perform it as Qadha any time during day or night.

3. Last verse of Sura Al-Kahf has been mentioned in our books to be recited to wake up easily قُلْ إِنَّمَا أَنَا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْ يُوحَىٰ إِلَيَّ أَنَّمَا إِلَٰهُكُمْ إِلَٰهٌ وَاحِدٌ ۖ فَمَن كَانَ يَرْجُو لِقَاءَ رَبِّهِ فَلْيَعْمَلْ عَمَلًا صَالِحًا وَلَا يُشْرِكْ بِعِبَادَةِ رَبِّهِ أَحَدًا
الكهف ١٨ | الآية: ١١٠]Sura 18, verse 110.

Are my Fajr, Maghrib, Isha salah valid and Adhan or Iqamah valid if I recite them all in a low clear voice which I can clearly hear but others in different rooms may not?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

It is obligatory on Muslim male to recite Sura Al-Hamd and another Sura in clear voice in Fajr, Maghrib and Isha Prayers. Clear voice does not making others hear you, but it means that you voice is clear even if it is low but can be heard by those who are just near you.

If the time is very tight for the Fajar prayer, can one pray Farz 2 units, and pray the Sunnat 2 units after sunrise?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Yes. It might be obligatory to pray the Farz of Fajr before sunrise, then pray the Nafila after sunrise as Qadha. Praying Nafila (Sunnah) is not permissible if it makes you miss performing the obligatory Prayer within its time.

Wassalam.
