Question: I read a hadith from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in which he says: "Whoever misses a prayer in his lifetime and does not know how many, let him stand on the last Friday of Ramadan and pray four rak'ahs with one tashahhud, reciting in each rak'ah the opening of the Book, and Surat al-Qadr fifteen times, and Surat al-Kawthar likewise,And he says in the intention: I intended to pray four rak'ahs as expiation for the prayers I missed", so what is the authenticity of this hadith?
Answer: This has no basis in the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). What is established from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) is that he said:Sunan ad-Darimi 2:45 The prayers I left behind in the past, if you left them due to sleep, for example, or fainting, or for an excuse you thought permitted you to delay them, then it is obligatory for you to make them up, and to pray them in order. If you left them intentionally, then the correct
of the scholars' statements is that you must repent to Allah; because whoever leaves the prayer intentionally, his matter is serious, even if he did not deny its obligation, the correct view is that he becomes a disbeliever by doing so. So you must repent to Allah if you left it intentionally, and you must be careful to maintain the prayer in your future, and Allah accepts the repentance of whoever repents.
As for if you left it due to sleep or fainting, or anything else that prevented you from performing it at its time, then you must make it up, without fail. As for praying this prayer you mentioned at the end of Ramadan, in this manner, this has no basis in the religion of Islam, and it does not expiate the prayers you left.

Whoever forgets a prayer or sleeps through it, let him pray it when he remembers it. There is no expiation for it except that.
