 *Repayment Issues*

--------------------------------

Questions asked - copied & pasted below:

"Salaam Alaikum brother, please I have a question regards to the prayer, someone forgot to pray Asr until he prays magrib and Ishai he now recall that he haven't pray Asr, how can someone make up that prayer?? Thanks jazakAllah Khaira".

Response:

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

If a person forgets to do anything - eg, he or she forgets to change the dress which is having Najas (impurity) and pray with the impure dress *(out of forgetfulness)*, or person forget a prayer and he or she does not remember it until he or she has performed another obligatory prayer, then, he or she is not sinful as the Prophet said: *''Allah has forgiven my nation for things they forget, or do by mistake, or which they are forced to do.''* 📚[Ibn Maajah]

Besides, Allah (swt) Says

لَا يُكَلِّفُ ٱللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَاۚ ..."

{"Our Lord, Do not impose blame upon us if we have" forgotten or erred...} 📚[Quran 2:286]

However,

You are obliged to make up the prayer that you forgot to perform, as the Prophet (saw) said: *''Whoever forgets a prayer should perform it as soon as he remembers it"* Then the Prophet (saw) recited the verse in which Allah The Almighty Says:

".... وَأَقِمِ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ لِذِكْرِىٓ

"So worship Me and establish prayer for My remembrance. -  Quran Ta Ha, 20:14 📚Al-Bukhari and Muslim

Therefore,

If you forgot to pray the Asr prayer until after praying Magrib & Ishai, then you are only required to pray the Asr prayer and you do not need to repeat the Mabrib & Ishai prayer. Yes. You are not considered sinful and your prayer as well even if you led people in prayer as Imam, your prayer & theirs is valid - In Shaa Allah.

Although,

Very few number of scholars are of the opinion that you pray the prayer you forget and then, repeat all the ones you have prayed before you remember.. *But, this verdict is not correct, and they don't have convincing evidence or evidences backing up this opinion*.

So,

If you forgot to pray any prayer until after praying the next prayer or prayers, then you are only required to pray the forgotten prayer and you do not need to repeat the next prayer or prayers already established.

Allah alone knows best



سبحانك اللهم وبحمدك نشهد ان لا اله الا انت نستغفرك ونتوابوااليك

NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Arba'a. 29th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Wednesday 8th May 2024). *_NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH_*. BismilLah.  Even though feelings of Panic, stress/worries etc are part of life, they must not reduce our acts of worship or trust in ALLAH. The more a man turns to ALLAH and focuses on HIM, the more he will feel a sense of peace and comfort, to an extent that no one knows except ALLAH. Hence those who know ALLAH, are close to HIM and fear HIM are the happiest of people, to such an extent that one of them said, in a well-known expression: “If the kings and the sons of kings knew what joy we have, they would fight us for it with the sword.” This is also what is expressed in the Qur’an, as ALLAH says: “Whoever works righteousness, whether male or female, while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him ALLAH will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and ALLAH will ...

HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaum Al-Khamis, 22nd day of Jumaadal Uula 1447AH, Thursday, 13th November, 2025.  *_HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN_*. BismilLah.  When we help our brothers and sisters in Islam, in reality, we are helping ourselves. The Messenger of ALLAH (S.A.W) said: He who relieves the hardship of a believer in this world, ALLAH Azzawajallah will relieve his hardship on the Day of Judgment. He who makes easy what is difficult, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will make it easy for him in the world and the hereafter. He who conceals the faults of a Muslim, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will conceal his faults in this ALLAH Azzawajallah world and the Hereafter, for ALLAH helps the servant as long as he helps his brother. Source: Ṣaḥīḥ "Muslim 2699. AlhamdulilLah.  With this I hope with immediate effect we will all strive to help each other in any possible way such as making dua for each other, supporting our relatives and those in need in ou...
