What should one do if Madhy, pre-seminal fluid, is emitted during prayer? Is it necessary to repeat the prayer or perform Wudu again?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Mathy مَذي is not Najis and it does not harm Wudu. You don't need to perform Wudu again just because of Mathy.

If someone has knee and ankle issues, can they pray seated in a chair, and is their prayer considered valid? Additionally, how should they perform Sujood while sitting in the chair?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

It depends in what he can do and he can not do. He is responsible to do everything which he can in his Salah, like standing (Qiyaam). If he is unable to do Rukoo’ or Sojood, then he sit in a chair and do whatever he can. While sitting in a chair, Sojood is on a table in front of him, or he can take the Turbah (Mohr) in his hand and put his forehead on it.

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.

For years, I mistakenly prayed my Salah by reciting Surah Al-Fatiha and Surah Al-Ikhlas in the 4th Rakah instead of Subhanallah walhamdulillah. Does this mean my prayers are invalid, and do I need to redo them?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Your Prayers are valid and you don't need to redo them because you did not know the rule. No onward, you need to recite in the third and forth Rak'at either one time Sura Al-Hamd or Tasbeehat Arab's three times., then one time ASTAGHFIRULLAH.

Wassalam.
