What is the ruling on building upon a prayer?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, there is a question about prayer. When you say the takbir for prayer and you pray, for example, you prayed the midday prayer, you prayed two rak'ahs, and then you remembered that you were not in a state of wudu'... do you perform wudu' and then build upon what you prayed?
The Shaykh : Yes, you build upon what you prayed. You build, you build upon what you prayed.
The questioner : You build upon what you prayed.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good. And even if, may Allah forbid, you had a hadath during the prayer and your wudu' was invalidated, you still build upon what you prayed.
The Shaykh : Yes, also, also.
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : And beware of that.
The questioner : One last question, if you please.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : One last question.
