Qadha Prayers (3):

Q1: If somebody has not prayed the prayers within the prescribed time, must he pray the ada first or the qadha first? For example, if one misses Salatul Fajr, and the time has come for Salat-ud-dhuhr, must he pray the qadha for Fajr first, or the dhuhr and asr first?

A: It is not mandatory to pray the missed prayer - qadha first.

Q2: Can the qadha for a missed prayer be prayed at any time of the day?

A: Yes, it is allowed.

Q3: If one has missed several prayers, must he recite the qadha in an order (first Fajr, then Dhuhr, Asr etc..) or can he recite in any order he wishes?

A: For a person who missed a full day prayer, it is recommended to make them up in the order that they were missed. For a person who missed a maghrib and isha or missed a Dhuhur and asr, the first prayer must be made up first.
