How to Make Up Missed Prayers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner, Abu Ali, says: If a person has missed prayers to make up, and I do not know the number of these missed prayers, and now I am praying one obligatory prayer with each current obligatory prayer, should I pray the current obligatory prayer first, or should I pray the missed prayer first? May Allah reward you.
Answer:
It is obligatory for you to hasten to make up the missed prayers; do not combine a missed prayer with a current obligatory prayer, but rather hasten to make them up and list them out. List out what is upon you in the Duha time, in the Dhuhr time, or at night, until you are rid of them. It is not permissible for you to delay. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan ad-Darimi 2:45.
So it is obligatory for you to hasten to make up the prayers that are upon you by estimating the number you think it is, whether five, ten, or twenty, whatever you think it is, and hasten to make them up. Do not make them up with every prayer, but rather hasten to make them up, listing them all out in the Duha time, or in the Dhuhr time, or at night, until you are finished with them. Yes.

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