It does not create any problems!

Hibernation usually saves time. It is faster than booting.

Hibernation is a very safe and good option particularly to be exercised on Laptops because it helps in restarting the OS faster and hence saves Battery power too.

No, It cannot cause any problem .

Only thing to remember is that no hardware changes should be done when the lappy is down in hybernation else there are booting problems.
