If somebody in our family passed away, what are the supplications which one should recite for the departed soul?
There is no specific narrated supplication for the deceased but it is better to remember him by praying for his forgiveness. Also, it is better if one were to perform some good deeds on his behalf like certain worships and charities as this will benefit him, God willing.
Is it allowed for a Muslim to pray for a dead person's forgiveness if the dead person is not a Muslim? Let me add that the non-Muslim dead person is not hostile to Islam but simply follows another religion.
It is not permissible.
How many times is it recommended to recite Talqeen for the deceased?
It is recommended to do Talqeen when the person is dying, when buried and after the burial when the mourners leave.
What are the limits of the relationship between the husband and wife after the wife dies? Is it permissible for the husband to touch the skin and hug her, etc. after her death?
It is prohibited to have sexual pleasure with the deceased wife. It is not prohibited to look at her, or touch her. It is permissible for him to give her the Ghusl.
On which days or nights does the soul of a dead person visit his/her home?
It is narrated that every soul, whether it is of a believer or a non-believer, visits their relatives at mid-day (Dhuhr time). if the soul see them doing good deeds, it thanks Almighty Allah for that if it was of a believer, and that of the non-believer regrets what it had committed.
When any Muslim dies we say "Inna Lillahi wa Inna Ilaihi Raji'oon"; can we say the same when a non-Muslim dies?
The mentioned wording is an indication of the fact that we are human beings owned by Almighty Allah and that His power manages us and we are under His ruling. There is nothing wrong in saying the mentioned words when hearing of the death of a Muslim or a non-Muslim since God's power is all-encompassing.
What is the evidence that Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him and his family) used to recite Al-Fatiha for the deceased Muslim?
There are some narrations reported from the Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them) that tell us that it is recommended to recite the Surah al-Fatiha for the deceased, alongside the many other benefits that its recitation has.
