What is the validity of making up missed prayers on the last Friday of Ramadan?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original

This is a letter received by the program from Muhammad Hashim Sa'id, an Egyptian working in Yemen. He says in his letter: I found in the book *Al-Majmu'ah al-Mubaraka*, authored by 'Abduh Muhammad, a chapter on a benefit that states: It was narrated from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said:

Whoever misses a prayer in his lifetime and does not know how many, let him stand on the last Friday of Ramadan and pray four rak'ahs with one tashahhud. In each rak'ah, he should recite al-Fatihah and Surat al-Qadr fifteen times, and likewise Surat al-Kawthar the same number of times. And he should say in his intention: I intend to pray four rak'ahs as expiation for the prayers I missed.

من فاتته صلاة في عمره ولم يحصها فليقم في آخر جمعة من رمضان ويصلي أربع ركعات بتشهد واحد، يقرأ في الركعة الواحدة الفاتحة وسورة القدر عدد خمسة عشر مرة، وكذلك سورة الكوثر مثلها، ويقول في النية: نويت أن أصلي أربع ركعات كفارة لما فاتني من الصلاة

Is this correct? Please issue a ruling for us, may Allah reward you.
Answer: This has no basis; rather, it is a fabricated lie. It has no basis; rather, it is among the lies and falsehoods. If a person misses a prayer and does not remember it, he should estimate, estimating whether it was Zuhr, 'Asr, 'Isha', Maghrib, or Fajr. He should act on his estimate and pray what he believes to be the case, and praise be to Allah, at any time. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you.
