Making Up the Regular Voluntary Prayers and Their Time

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is there a ruling on making up the sunnah and the rawatib? And do they have a specific time in the space?

Answer:
Yes, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) made up the sunnah of the 'Asr prayer after it. Likewise, when sleep overtook them during a journey on one of their trips and they did not wake up until the sun had risen, he made up the rawatib of the Fajr prayer with it; he made it up before it. He saw a man praying after the Fajr prayer, so he asked him about it. The man said, "I am praying the sunnah of the Fajr prayer because I missed it." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) approved of that for him. This indicates that making up the rawatib when their time has passed is prescribed.
