Salah (Prayers)

Salah ("worship", ‏صلاة‎; pl. ‏صلوات‎ ṣalawāt; also salat), or namāz (Persian: نَماز‎) in some languages, is one of the Five Pillars in the faith of Islam and an obligatory religious duty for every Muslim (Male & Female, with certain exemptions based on Taqwa). It is a physical, mental, and spiritual act of worship that is observed five times every day at prescribed times.

Some doctors advise to go to the toilet before performing Wudhu so that the gas is out of your stomach during your prayers. If the wind is continuous with out stopping,b then you just need to perform one Wudhu and pray even if wind come out. If the wind stops for few minutes, then you need to perform your Wudhu and Prayers during that period before your Wudhu is broken.

Bismillah, 

Asalamu Alaykom, 

If the ink you had on your hand would form a barrier from the water reaching the skin, then yes, you must repeat that Salah and wudu after removing such a barrier. 

May Allah grant you success

Performing the Prayer on the start of its time is highly recommended as believe from the actions of the Prophet (SAWA) and Ahlul Bayt (AS) that nothing can be more important than performing Salah on the start of its time. Even when they were fighting the enemies of Allah, they never postponed Salah.

Every obligatory Prayer is obligatory on you when you have Istehagha blood but you need to perform for it either one Wudhu for every Prayer if the quantity of blood is little which does not fill the pad, or add with one Ghusl before Fajr Prayer if the blood fills the pad but does not leak out of it (Medium Istihadha) or perform three Ghusls daily; one before Fajr Prayer, then one before Dhuhr Prayer then one before Maghrib Prayer, when the bleeding fills the pad and leak out if it (Big Istehadha).

There is no special Prayer named as Istihadha Prayer., but if you missed any Prayer during Istehadha, you need then to perform it as Qadha like any obligatory missed Prayer.

If you are sure that you did miss an obligatory Prayer or an obligatory fasting, then you should make it up and Qadha. If you are not sure that you missed any obligatory Prayer or fasting, then it is not obligatory on you to keep Qadha.

This claim is fabricated. The Prophet (SAWA) never appointed Abu Bakr to lead prayers during his illness, but Ayisha sent her father Abu Bakr to do that with out permission from the Prophet, and when the Prophet came to know what Ayisha did, he went to the Mosque tolerating his illness, supported by Ali and Al-Fadheelat ibn Abbas, and pulled Abu Bakr back from the Mihrab and lead the prayers himself.

Ibn Abi Al-Hadeed, the well known Sunni Mu'tazili scholar stated that he asked his teacher: Do you say that the Prophet never sent Abu Bakr to lead the Prayer but it was A'yisha who sent her father? He replied me: It is not my claim but Ali Ibn Abi Talib said it, and he was present and I was not present.
