Ruling on the traveler making up the prayer of the resident during travel
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I prayed the 'Asr prayer in my city, then I traveled. While on the road, I remembered that I had prayed it without being in a state of ritual purity. Should I make it up as a shortened prayer or as four rak'ahs? What is the ruling if the opposite happens, meaning that after I returned from my journey, I remembered that I had prayed the 'Isha' prayer shortened without being in a state of ritual purity? Should I make it up as four rak'ahs or as two rak'ahs?
Answer:
If you remember while traveling that you prayed the 'Asr prayer or any other prayer while a resident without being in a state of ablution, you must make it up as four rak'ahs, because it was obligatory for you as four rak'ahs. Likewise, if you remember that you prayed the Dhuhr, 'Asr, or 'Isha' prayer while traveling without being in a state of ablution, and then you remember this while a resident, you must pray it as four rak'ahs, because the reason for shortening the prayer has ceased, which is travel. And success is from Allah.
