The Ruling on Making Up Missed Prayers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the questioner asks about the ruling on missed prayers for a person: does he have to make them up, or what should he do? Because I heard a hadith from Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever misses a prayer and does not pray it, he may stand at the end of Friday in Ramadan and pray four rak'ahs."
Answer:
This has no basis; this statement has no basis. Whoever has missed prayers must make them up in order until he is finished, thereby clearing his conscience of them, unless they are very numerous and difficult for him to make up; in that case, he should maintain the prayer for the rest of his life, and that is sufficient for him. Yes.
