The Sunnah of Duha: Is it made up?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The Sunnah of Duha.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : The Sunnah of Duha, if its time is missed, is lost, because the Sunnah of Duha is restricted to this time.
However, the rawatib (the regular voluntary prayers attached to the obligatory ones) are made up because they are attached to the obligatory prayers. Likewise, the witr (the odd-numbered night prayer) is made up, as it is established in the Sunnah that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), if he was overcome by sleep or illness at night, would pray twelve rak'ahs during the day, so it is also made up.
