Saahib-e-Tarteeb coming to know of the invalidity of a past fardh salaah

· 6 Shaʻban 1447 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

A person one day prayed Maghrib and it wasn’t valid but he didn’t realise until a few days later that the prayer wasn’t valid. Does he only have to repeat the Maghrib prayer or are there other prayers after this he has to make up because of sequence of prayers?

Answer

Since he did not know that the salaah was not valid but only came to know later on, he will only have to repeat the Maghrib salaah.

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