Summarized Fatawaa

• Is my son who was breastfed one filling time by my aunt considered a brother to her children?
The baby who was suckled five sporadic times by a woman is considered a son/daughter of hers.

• Is Fajr(dawn) Sunnah a confirmed one?
Yes, it is a confirmed Sunnah which the Prophet(PBUH) used to offer regularly.

• How is night prayer offered ?
Night prayer is offering voluntary prayer after Maghrib and before Fajr(dawn). As for Tahajjud, it is offering voluntary prayer at night after waking up voluntarily, and for Allah`s sake as He says: “And pray in the small watches of the morning: (it would be) an additional prayer (or spiritual profit) for thee: soon will thy Lord raise thee to a Station of Praise and Glory!”{Al-Isra`/ 79}. Offering Tahajjud is better than offering voluntary prayer before going to bed.

• How should I be kind to my atheist father?
Allah, The Exalted, has decreed that we be kind to our parents, even if they are polytheists, by honoring and obeying them in all that isn`t sinful, so that they might love Islam and embrace it as a result.
