Are classes taught in arabic? Is there any muhadiths in the world today that know as many hadith as the early muhadiths? What did the Hanafi ulama that said shrimp to be halal use as their argument against the original opinion of Abu Hanifa RA who said it to be haram, is there evidence to any of this in Quran and Hadith that may be relevant? Is Mahmud Abbas acting according and within the bounds of the Shariah? Is the group hamas correct to reject the peace plan and continue to fight the kufr? What ruling are there as regarding how to pray dua qunoot in fajr salat? Can we make it for the palestinians and if so how do we do that according to hanafi? does it have to be in arabic? do we hold the hands up?

7. According to the Hanafi Madhab, Qunoot may not be recited tafter the Ruku of the second Rakaat of Fajr Salaat only when the Ummah is afflicted with some calamity. The Du’aa should be in Arabic. According to the Hanafi Madhab, the hands should not be raised but should be left on the sides.
