Repeating the Salaah due to it becoming invalid

· 18 Jumada I 1436 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

If I carry out my fard salaah and later after the time where the salaah is valid, find out that I did an action that would have invalidated the salaah, is it sufficient for me to not repeat that mistake in all future prayers or must I make up the salaahs that I unknowingly carried out the mistake in?

Answer

If the action you did invalidated the Salaah, then the Salaah will have to be repeated.

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