Provisions for offering Qaza prayers when time runs out

Religion Desk: Prayer is one of the obligatory acts of worship. The Holy Quran mentions 82 times of prayer. It has been said, 'Then when you complete the Salat (prayer), remember Allah while standing, sitting and lying down. Then when he is sure, he will establish the Salat (as before). Indeed, prayer is obligatory on the believers at certain times. (Surah Nisa, verse: 103).

Again, in the hadith, there is a mention of praying more than once. Along with that, importance has been given on performing prayers on time. Even to Almighty Allah, performing the prayer on time is the most beloved deed.

Abdullah Ibn Masood (RA) narrated, I asked the Messenger (PBUH), which deed is dearer to Allah? He said, performing the prayer at the right time. Ibnu Masud (RA) asked again, which one? He said, then be kind to parents. Ibnu Masud (RA) asked again, which one? The Prophet (PBUH) said, then Jihad in the way of Allah or Jihad fi sabilillah. (Sahih Bukhari, Hadith: 502)

However, if by mistake or for any other special reason, the prayer of a certain time is missed, then that prayer must be performed later. Especially if the obligatory or obligatory prayer is missed, it is necessary to perform its qaza. According to most of the Islamic scholars, the Qaza of the time when the prayer is performed, should be performed before the next time of prayer. That is, if someone misses the time of Zuhr, then he must perform the Qaza of Zuhr before the time of Asr. In this case, only obligatory prayer should be performed. There is no problem in not being circumcised. And in the case of Qaza prayer, Sura-Qaraat is the same as the main prayer.

However, if the Fajr prayer is rushed, then it is better to perform two rak'ahs of Sunnah during Qaza. There is a hadith of the Prophet (PBUH) about this. According to a hadith narrated by Abu Qatada (RA), the Prophet (PBUH) was on a journey. During that trip, he said to his companions, "You should pay attention to our Fajr prayer." But no one can get up at dawn. Later, after waking up after the heat of the sun, everyone went a little away from that place and performed ablution. Later, after Bilal (R.A.) gave the adhan, everyone first performed two rakat sunnah of Fajr and then two rakat fard. (Sunan Abu Dawud: 437).
