Ruling on delaying a missed prayer until its time on the following day
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Muhammad ibn 'Abd al-Wahhab mentioned a custom that many people have adopted, which is: if a prayer is missed from its time, they leave it until the time of the second prayer comes. For example, if he misses the Zuhr prayer, he leaves it for the Zuhr prayer of the next day. Do they have anything to rely on for this?
Answer: No, this is ignorance from the saying of some of the common people. It has no basis. It is not permissible to delay it to another time, even if it is close. If he misses the Zuhr prayer, he does not have the right to delay it until the time of 'Asr, nor until the next Zuhr. Rather, it is obligatory for him to hasten to perform it when he becomes aware and remembers. Whenever he becomes aware, it is obligatory for him to perform it as mentioned previously, and he does not have the right to delay it whenever he remembers. Yes.
