The Ruling on Making Up Missed Sunnah Prayers Along with the Obligatory Prayers

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Regarding the Sunnah prayer of Dhuhr or the regular voluntary prayers (rawatib) attached to the obligatory ones. For example, if I missed a prayer and prayed the obligatory one, do I pray the Sunnah or not? Do you pray the Sunnah?

The Shaykh : By Allah, before I answer this question, I want to know how you missed the obligatory prayer?

The questioner : Yes, for example, or regarding combining prayers? On Friday of the week.

The Shaykh : Stop, stop, stop, do not stop.

The questioner : Yes.

The Shaykh : So, you missed the obligatory prayer.

The questioner : I missed its obligatory time, so I made up the obligatory prayer.

The Shaykh : How did you miss the obligatory prayer?

The questioner : For example, suppose I was sleeping and sleep overtook me.

The Shaykh : It takes time to think about it. Yes.

The questioner : I was sleeping, and the Dhuhr prayer passed, and then 'Asr passed.

The Shaykh : Are you neither a student of knowledge nor working in a profession?

The questioner : No, I was working, for example, I was on night duty as a guard, and I slept, and for example, the Dhuhr prayer was missed, and I arrived at the time of 'Asr.

The Shaykh : On your head, the answer is: I did not enter. Yes. Yes. Based on your explanation, we say that the jurists, based on the Sunnah, say that the missed prayer is made up as it was missed. Yes. This means that if you missed a night prayer and remembered it during the day, you pray it as if you were praying it at night, meaning it is a loud prayer, so you pray it loudly during the day. And if you remembered a daytime prayer at night and prayed it at night, you do not pray it loudly, but you pray it quietly. Likewise, if it is your habit to pray the obligatory and the voluntary prayers, and you missed both the obligatory and the voluntary, you pray them together.

The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh : May Allah keep you safe.

The questioner : Regarding combining prayers as well, regarding combining, do you accompany the Sunnah?

The Shaykh : The Sunnah between the two combined groups is dropped.

The questioner : Yes, the hadith was reported.

The Shaykh : Yes, indeed.

The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh : May Allah keep you safe.

The questioner : May Allah keep you safe.

The Shaykh : Welcome. Peace be upon you, and upon you be peace, and Allah's mercy and blessings. Peace

The questioner : How are you?

The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah, I am well.
