Question

The question text was not published separately; the title stands in for it.

After sunset, how long (minutes?) do I have to complete Maghrib Salaat before I have to make Qadha niyyat?

Answer

In principle, Maghrib Salaat terminates upon the expiry of twilight.

In order to determine the expiry time in minutes, you may consult the perpetual timetable which has computed commencing and terminating times for each Salaat. The perpetual timetable is available from our offices.

How do I make up missed salaah (qadha)?

“Performing Qadha salaah in one's home or in the musjid is permissible. However, after the time of fajr enters and after performing your asr salaah, if you wish to perform Qadha salaah, then perform it in your home.”
