Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a woman is praying and does not know whether she recited Surat al-Fatihah or not, is she allowed to recite al-Fatihah, or must she repeat the prayer?
Answer:
Answer: If this is a matter of obsessive doubt (waswas), she should not pay attention to it. However, if she forgot al-Fatihah, or if she is certain or strongly suspects that she did not recite it, she must make up one unit of the prayer (rak'ah) by performing it in place of the one in which she left out the recitation of al-Fatihah, and then perform the prostration for forgetfulness (sujud al-sahw).
