We thank you for your question and it is our please to answer them.

In the name of Allah we seek his help, guidance and forgiveness in everything we do.

The wife’s approval is not a condition for plural marriage, and it is not obligatory for the husband to have the approval of his first wife if he wants to marry a second wife. But it is good manners and kind treatment to approach the issue in such a way as to reduce the pain which women naturally feel in such cases, by smiling at her, greeting her warmly, speaking nicely to her and spending money on her according to his means, in order to gain her approval. Fataawa Islamiyyah, 3/204.

If a husband takes a second wife, he has to treat his wives equally as far as possible. If he does not treat them equally then he is exposing himself to a stern warning, for it was narrated from Abu Hurayrah that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whoever has two wives and inclines more towards one of them than the other, will come on the Day of Resurrection with half of his body leaning.” (narrated by al-Nisaa’i, ‘Ushrat al-Nisaa’, 3881; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh Sunan al-Nasaa’i, no. 3682).

Allah knows the best.

You have to do wudoo’ using water from whatever is around you of the river or sea. The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) was asked about doing wudoo’ from the sea and he said: “Its water is a means of purification and its dead meat recovered from it is permissible .” So, praise be to Allah, if you took a dip in the sea to cool off or to remove dirt and the like, it is not sufficient; rather you have to do wudoo’.

But if you were in a state of janaabah, and you intended to remove both major and minor impurity by doing ghusl, it is sufficient. However, it is better to do wudoo’ as for prayer, then do ghusl to remove janaabah. This is what the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) used to do. The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) would start with wudoo’. He would clean himself first, then he would do wudoo’ as for prayer, then he would do ghusl. This is the Sunnah and that is sufficient.

Thank you very much for your question. It is our pleasure to answer it.

Tahajjud means specifically praying at night, and some scholars have said them to be prayers that are offered at night after sleeping. 

Al-Hajjaaj ibn ‘Amr al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) said: One of you thinks that if he gets up at night and prays until morning comes that he has done tahajjud. But in fact tahajjud means praying after sleeping, then praying after sleeping. That is how the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah upon him) prayed. 

The other view from different scholars is this Ibn Baaz (may Allah have mercy on him) said:

The time for tahajjud begins after ‘Isha’ and ends with the break of dawn. When the people have prayed ‘Isha’, the time for tahajjud begins and lasts until the break of dawn. The Sunnah is to pray qiyaam al-layl between the end of ‘Isha’ prayer and the break of dawn, even if it is one rak‘ah of Witr.

However, the best time for performing Tahajjud prayer is the last part of the night, because of what has been reported on the authority of 'Amr ibn 'Abasah that he said, I asked: O Messenger of Allah, in which part of night the supplication is more likely to be accepted?

He replied: In the last part: Pray as much as you like, for the prayer is attended by the angels and it is recorded till you offer the dawn prayer the Fajr prayer ..." (Sunan Abi Dawood)

Now the specific timing for this varies based on seasons and the actual region of the world you live in.

A simple way to calculate the exact time, would be to divide the night in three portions. It is calculated from sunset so Maghreb time, to the break of dawn before fajr prayer.

Let’s say there are 9 hours between the two, so each 1/3 of the night would be 3 hours.

Now, how many rakats, Generally, two rakats is seen as the minimum necessary for Tahajjud, but it's possible to pray as many as you wish to be prayed 2 by 2. There are hadiths which say the prophet (saws) prayed 8.

God willing In sha’a Allah this video was clear about the Tahajjud prayer.
