Question:
The questioner says: If I said the opening takbir with the imam for the Maghrib prayer, and then I remembered that I had not yet prayed Fajr, should I break off the Maghrib prayer and pray Fajr, or what should I do?
Answer:
Yes, if you remember before the taslim, your prayer is invalid. You should exit it. If you wish to intend it for Fajr and say the takbir again with the intention of Fajr, there is no harm, but you must continue with it, not continue with the previous one.
