Making up a missed rak'ah of the eclipse prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a person misses a rak'ah of the eclipse prayer, how does he make it up? Does he bow once, prostrate, and conclude the prayer, or does he pray it as it was reported in the Sunnah?
Answer:
If he misses the first bowing of the rak'ah, he has missed the entire rak'ah. The second bowing is a recommended practice (sunnah). The first bowing is a pillar. So if he misses the first bowing of the rak'ah, he has missed the rak'ah. However, he joins the imam, and when the imam concludes the prayer, he stands and performs a rak'ah. If he wishes, he performs a rak'ah with one bowing and two prostrations, and if he wishes, he performs a rak'ah with two bowings. Yes.
