Do I have to repeat the salahs?
Published as Should one repeat salaah that was read without pulling the madds
Question
Some time ago, I did not know that I have to read salah with tajweed. So for like almost 5 years I read salah but did not follow the proper rules of elongation and madds. Do I have to repeat the salahs?
Answer
No.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
