No. Supposedly modern refrigerators can handle hot food without allowing other food to go bad. Personally, I'd allow it to cool so that the meat is not steaming hot, which should take no longer than 30 minutes. Then refrigerate it.

It depends on when you are going to eat it. If you eat it two hours later, it would be wise as for putting it in for two days later. if just a few minutes, dont bother.

Why is it bad to refreeze raw chicken meat?

Refreezing meat isn't a good idea. But if you must, the meat should not have been old the first time it was frozen, it should have been thawed under refrigeration and then frozen again shortly after being thawed. Realize that the quality of the meat will be negatively affected. The flavor will likely degrade and the meat will be drier and tougher when cooked.
