When I lived in Italy I used to have bread from a company called Mulino Bianco. Here is a link to one of their bread's ingredients: https://www.mulinobianco.it/pan-bauletto-integrale?yxpt-from=search
The ingredients are just your regular bread's ingredient (wheat, water, salt, yeast, oil). but they said they add alcohol to the surface after making bread (as preservative I believe).
Would this make the bread haram?

Can Allah make another God
Many verses in the Quran state that Allah can do everything. The thing is, I don't know if Allah can make another God that's greater than Allah. So my question is: **is it kufr to think that Allah can't make another God greater than him ? Or can Allah actually make a God that's greater than him ?**

According to the belief of Shiite school of thought, Imam Mahdi (Imam Zaman or factually 12th Imam of Shia)) will reappear as the last Imam of Shiite. They believe that he will come to save the world from oppression. According to the hadiths, many people will join his as his soldiers.
My question is that who will be his soldiers to help him to fight against oppressors?
In fact, will all of his soldiers be Shiite or is it feasible that many other people join him from other sects or even from other religions?
*Note: I'm looking for the answer from Shia's perspective.*

Is it okay to BULD UP to praying all 5 prayers?

I am new to Islam and have been trying to get my wife and I to pray more and better.
Seeing as we almost never pray, I decided to make a plan to help us achieve all 5 prayers a day in a way that would teach us habitually and progressively.
To start, we will pray at least once a day at Isha for a month.
Then add another prayer time for the next month.
Than, Do that 3 more times until we are finally doing all 5.
Unfortunately, she hates the idea saying, “praying once a day is worse than not praying at all, either we pray all 5 from the beginning or we don’t pray at all” the problem is I know us! I know we will not be able to keep it up and quit very soon after starting. My method would help us gradually cut the times in our schedules to pray every single day without being overwhelmed and stressed. We would be able to ensure each prayer a spot in the day; 1 by 1 until there is no excuse for not praying and also gradually build and habbitualize our prayer times so there is 0 reasons as to why we didn’t pray.
I understand praying once a day isn’t good but taking the long way around to ensure and solidify all of the prayers one by one is SO much better than…
going in blind getting stressed, not planning, accidentally missing a prayer, getting lazy, forgetting and finding excuses to not pray.
Am I wrong? How should we start praying again so that we can keep doing it?

Salaam,
I came across the following hadith online and was hoping someone could include the arabic version that I believe is found in Musnad Ahmad. The entire Musnad Ahmad hasn't been translated in English online yet for us to view (though I know it is available in book format). JazakAllah khair for the help.
Ahmad (9504) narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) led us in praying Zuhr, and in the last row there was a man who prayed badly. When he said the salaam, the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) called him and said: “O So and so, do you not fear Allah? Do you not see how you pray. You think that you could hide from me some of what you do, but by Allah I can see behind me as well as I can see in front of me.”
