Making up missed prayers for one who missed them on a plane due to major ritual impurity
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner says: He was traveling by plane and was in a state of major ritual impurity, but he did not find anything with which to perform dry ablution. He missed the midday, afternoon, and sunset prayers. When he arrived in Madinah, he performed the full ritual bath to remove the major ritual impurity. He caught up with the night prayer in congregation, but he forgot to make up the missed prayers. A period of time passed, and he says days passed until he remembered them. He asks: What should he do? He must make them up.
Answer:
He must make them up. If one forgets a prayer or sleeps through it, he should pray it when he remembers it. There is no expiation for it other than that.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh,
