If I mistakenly perform a Qada prayer as a regular Salah, do I need to redo it with the Qada intention?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Qadha prayer is in fact just like a regular Salah with intention of Qadha. Intention is in your heart and you don't need to pronounce it or mention it on your tongue. When you performed the Qadha prayer, you were aware that it is a Qadha prayer for the sake of Allah. This is enough.

If I arrive at work before Fajr while fasting and can't pray due to a busy morning, can I perform my Fajr Qada prayer later with my Dhuhr and Asr prayers? Will my fast still be valid in that case?
Zaid Alsalami

Bismihi ta'āla

You would definitely have enough time in your busy morning, while being awake, to take a 2 minute break and fast. If your employer does not allow it, remove yoursel from this job.

It is a major sin to deliberately not pray, and all the blessings and positivity will be taken away and drained from you if you were to intentionally not pray and take it lightly.

And Allah knows best
Does the distinction between Qada’ and Ada’ in Niyyah apply solely to obligatory prayers? Do voluntary prayers like Salat al-Layl, when performed after Fajr, remain voluntary and not subject to Ada’ or Qada’, with the intention being Qurbatan ila Allah?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

As obligatory Prayers have Adaa' when it is performed within its time, and Qadha; when it is performed after its time, recommended prayers also have Adaa' when it is performed within it's time, and Qadha when it is performed after it's time. Qurbatan ilallah is a condition in every worship, yet Adaa and Qadha should be in your intention.

Is there a concept of Qaza for Zakat? Does money remain Haram until Zakat is fulfilled?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

All financial dues like Zakat and Khums must be paid as soon as possible even for those who did not pay it on its time. The responsibility is to pay all the unpaid dues as soon as you can.

Money remain mixed with Haraam until all dues are fully paid.

Wassalam.
