The ruling on one who forgot a prayer yesterday and did not remember which one it was
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: He forgot a prayer yesterday, and when the next day came, he remembered that he had forgotten a prayer yesterday, but he did not remember which prayer it was. He has neither doubt nor certainty. What is required of him, and what is his situation?
Answer:
He has neither doubt nor certainty? How so? If he is certain that he has a prayer he did not perform, (peace and blessings be upon him), it is obligatory for him to make it up based on his ijtihad (independent legal reasoning). And if he prays something in it, yes.
