Ruling on making up the regular voluntary prayers for one who was occupied with other duties
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
By virtue of our work as teachers, when lining up for the midday prayer, we need to organize the students at the beginning and the end, so we are unable to perform the regular voluntary prayers. Do we make them up, or what?
Do you line up the students from the moment the call to prayer is made, or is there an opportunity to pray? Before you start lining up the students, do you pray the regular voluntary prayer?The questioner: We need time.
The Shaykh: In any case, strive to do so, and if it does not work out, your supervision of these students is undoubtedly a great benefit. You can, after the prayer, perform the last regular voluntary prayer and then make up the regular voluntary prayer that comes before the prayer.
The questioner: And is it reported that the pre-midday regular voluntary prayer is only two units?Answer: Yes, it is reported as two units, and it is also reported as four units with two closings of the prayer,As for two units, it is in the hadith of Ibn 'Umar: (I preserved from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) ten units, and he mentioned two before the midday prayer and two after it), and as for twelve, that is also authentic from the Prophet (peace be upon him) from the hadith of Aisha and others.
