Does almost laughing break prayer?
If you have the urge to laugh and try to stop yourself but make a slightly sneaky noise with your throat for a second, without smiling, does that break your prayer?

is laughing of women in front of non mehram men okay?

I have to ask whether a female can laugh in presence of non mehram men. I used to think that it's not correct as females must use stern or strict voice with men as is mentioned in Quran 33:32. In this verse, laughing is not mentioned but it seemed obvious to me that laughing is going against being having stern voice.
But recently while discussing this with someone, I realised that I may be wrong. He said that talking in loving manner is wrong but laughing is not wrong and it's not non-stern thing according to him, specially when the conversation is related to work only [casualness pops up even in work related talks].
So what's correct and how is it derived?
And what is its level of importance like farz, wajib, recommended or optional?
Jazakallah.

One day my mother insisted on knowing why I was laughing, after she saw the picture of big chungs she immediately turned off my computer and told me that what I was doing was haram and she refused to explain why.

Should I make up Eid prayer after quietly laughing?
During the Eid prayer I laughed because of something a little girl did. It was a very quiet laugh. Do you know if I have to make this prayer up? Should I make it up at home?
