The Ruling on Making Up Missed Prayers in the Times When Prayer Is Prohibited
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you and make your knowledge beneficial. A listener who referred to himself by the letters A and H sent a number of questions. In the first one, he says: Some time ago, I was admitted to the hospital and underwent a surgical operation. I stayed in the hospital for a period and then left. I did not pray, neither in the hospital nor at home. What is obligatory for me? And if I am required to make up the prayers, is it permissible for me to pray them in the times when prayer is not permissible?
The Shaykh:
You made a mistake in abandoning the prayer.
The presenter:
We seek refuge in Allah.
The Shaykh:
During the period of your illness and your stay in the hospital or at home; because the prayer is not dropped under any circumstance. Rather, the Muslim prays according to his condition. The sick person prays standing, and if he cannot, then sitting, and if he cannot, then on his side, and he indicates the bowing and prostration. The prayer is not dropped under any circumstance. So you made a mistake in abandoning the prayer. You must make it up. You must make it up in order, starting from the first prayer to the last prayer, with the sequence. You pray them as they come, and there is no specific time for making up prayers. Rather, whenever you are able to hasten, you must make up the prayer. In this case, there is no time of prohibition for you. Yes.
