Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a man returns to his prayer after leaving it due to an interruption, such as the presence of ritual impurity, for example, does he complete what remains of it, or does he start over from the beginning?
Answer:
No, he starts over from the beginning, because he cut off his first prayer; he left, he cut it off, and he turned away from it. How can he build upon it? Yes.
