Question
My question is about making Qaadah salaat. What must one do if he is unsure of which, and how many, salaat he has missed? My situation is such that due to school, work, etc I have missed various Salaat in the past 10 years, but obviously do not remember which ones. What should I do? Jazakallah Khaire.
Answer
If a person does not remember the date, month or year of the missed Salaats, he should apply his honest discretion and follow that.
If the person is satisfied that he has fulfilled all his Qadhaa Salaats, then he may discontinue making Qadhaa Salaats.
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
