Q.1 No it was not because of Unbelief, he just needed confirmation of what he heard is what God is saying to him Seeking information is when you want to be sure what you heard is really what is required of you , but putting God to test is more of Unbelief I don't think God mind asking for confirmation, if you did not heard correctly God might be upset if asking for confirmation is more of putting God to test to see what will happen
