"Verses missing from the Qur'an"

Anyone heard of this hadith?

[Narrated 'Aisha] "The verse of the stoning and of suckling an adult ten times were revealed, and they were (written) on a paper and kept under my bed. When the messenger of Allah expired and we were preoccupied with his death, a goat entered and ate away the paper."
Musnad Ahmad bin Hanbal. vol. 6. p. 269; Sunan Ibn Majah, p. 626; Ibn Qutbah, Tawil Mukhtalafi 'l-Hadith

I was guessing it's fabricated but someone said Sunnis believe in it. Not really someone I could trust... but yeah has anyone heard of it and the explanation given about it?

Conduct of congregation prayers and khutbah

Just want to mention that for congregation prayer, rows start at the middle.

The only time it should start at a side is if it is the last row that is against a wall and the entrance to the hall is to a side - in which case starting in the middle could constrict other people from getting into the row past the people in the middle.

Otherwise it starts in the middle.

Secondly, the second adhaan at jum'ah is part of the khutbah. Unlike normal adhaan where there are set responses etc that people can read in response to all the calls, this is not the case when it is a part of khutbah, when people should listen attentively.

Individuality and prayer

A question can sometimes be asked - if we are all individuals with individual needs, thoughts and lives, why is prayer a ritual which we all adhere to in a similar fashion?

There are small differences in how to pray that people use, but overall, the main fardh actions are the same and all the different forms of prayer are recogniseable as forms of prayer.

So where is the space for individual expression?

Here, there are two issues.

one is that in dua there is no such rigidity, just in salaah.

The second issue is of purpose.

A purpose of Prayer is to remember God (swt) and try to remember him in all His glory.
