Making qadha of salaah missed while travelling

· 6 Dhuʻl-Hijjah 1440 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

If one misses a salaah while travelling, are you allowed to perform qadha salaah by joining (e.g. Zuhr and Asr) and shortening the salaahs as you are still busy travelling? This will mean, for example, performing two rakaats for Zuhr and 2 rakaats for Asr in the time of Maghrib?

Answer

If the salaahs became qadha while travelling then you will shorten them when reading them.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

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.”
