Sleep is made a means of rest, night a cover, and day for livelihood. Seven heavens were built above and the sun made as a light.

A gang of robbers witnessed a sparrow feeding a blind snake and realized Allah's care even for creatures disliked. They repented and embarked on Hajj. En route, a blind woman gave them clothes of her deceased righteous son that the Prophet told her in a dream to give to them.

Khadija, Muhammad's first wife, tested whether the spirit that visited Muhammad was an angel or a demon. She had Muhammad sit in different positions on her lap to see if the spirit remained visible, which would prove it was an angel and not a demon.

Islamic Book in English: The Calls of the RiverIslamic Library
Allah shows immense mercy to those who repent sincerely. A story is mentioned of an Israelite man who committed a sin, repented, but then sinned again. When he went to a stream to bathe, the stream called out to him, reminding him of his repentance. Ashamed, he left and joined 12 men worshipping Allah. When one of the men passed away, the stream instructed that he be buried near it. Trees then grew around his grave, and the men stayed there worshipping until they all passed away. The story demonstrates that Allah forgives those who repent sincerely. It also shows that Allah watches over even secret sins. One should always repent and not lose hope in Allah's infinite

The document provides an explanation of the meaning of "Taaghoot" according to Imaam Muhammad bin ‘Abdil-Wahhaab. It is summarized as follows:
1. The first obligation on mankind is to reject the Taaghoot and believe in Allah alone. Taaghoot refers to anything worshipped besides Allah.
2. The treatise defines rejecting the Taaghoot and believing in Allah, and explains they form the foundation of Ibrahim's religion.
3. It identifies the main categories of Taaghoot as the devil, oppressive rulers, false judges, those who claim knowledge of the unseen, and those who are worshipped.
The document summarizes ten "Nullifiers of Islam" as outlined by Imam Muhammad bin 'Abdil-Wahhaab. The first nullifier is committing shirk (associating partners) with Allah in acts of worship. The second is placing intermediaries between oneself and Allah by calling on them or seeking their intercession. The third nullifier is not considering polytheists to be disbelievers or having doubts about their disbelief. The author explains each nullifier in further detail.

The document discusses the results of a study analyzing COVID-19 case data from March to May 2020 across different US states. It finds that states that implemented stay-at-home and business closure orders earlier and more aggressively were more effective at reducing disease spread. However, lifting restrictions too quickly led to a rise in cases in some states. The precise timing of reopening is important to avoid a resurgence of infections.
This document provides a summary of the Islamic concept of "enjoining right and forbidding wrong" in 3 sentences or less:
The document discusses how enjoining right and forbidding wrong is an integral part of Islam that all Muslims are responsible for upholding through gentle encouragement of good deeds and prohibition of sins.

Muslims are described as the best community for implementing this duty through peaceful guidance aimed at bettering society.

Retaliation against insults and abuse is permitted under Islamic law, but forgiveness is better. If someone curses another or wishes them harm, retaliation in similar terms is allowed, unless it exceeds the initial offense. An insult that mentions true character flaws can be returned, but not false accusations. While hatred of non-believers is understandable, Muslims must still act justly towards all. Retaliation is only permitted for offenses that cause personal harm, not those that violate religious commands, where no retaliation is allowed at all. Most jurists agree that capital crimes like murder may warrant equivalent retaliation, while violations like forced drinking or sexual assault do not allow for retaliation.
This document summarizes the ailments of the heart and their cures according to Islamic teachings. It discusses how the heart can become diseased through doubts, desires, and sins, weakening its perception of truth and strengthening its love of falsehood, just as the body becomes ill. The heart's well-being is even more important than the body's. Sickness occurs through exposure to similar influences that first caused the disease, while following righteous guidance and knowledge can cure it. Cures include the Quran, righteous deeds, avoiding sins and harmful influences, and gaining beneficial knowledge.
This document discusses the dilemma facing youth today. It outlines three types of youth: rightly guided youth who firmly follow Islamic principles; deviated youth who have strayed from religion; and confused youth who are unsure between good and evil.

When the foundations of future generations are built upon strong religious and moral values, it will lead to a bright future for the Muslim community.

This document argues that democracy is a form of disbelief and polytheism that must be rejected and fought against. It claims that democracy's legislative councils are places of polytheism since only Allah can prescribe laws. It asserts that those who believe in or follow democratic systems have taken legislators as false deities and made man-made laws partners with Allah. The document urges rejecting any other system of governance than one ruled by Islamic law as prescribed by Allah alone.
This document provides a summary of the status and importance of the declaration of faith "Laa ilaaha illallaah" in Islam. It discusses how this declaration is central to Muslim life and practice, forming the basis of key rituals like prayer. The summary emphasizes that:
1) Laa ilaaha illallaah is the most fundamental concept in Islam, forming the dividing line between belief and disbelief.
2) It is the reason why creation, scripture, laws and the afterlife exist in Islam. Belief and accountability are centered around this declaration.
3) Uttering laa ilaaha illallaah correctly protects one's wealth, life and faith, while rejecting it removes
This document discusses da'wah (outreach/invitation) to atheists, deists, and agnostics. It begins by defining these terms and noting that belief in God's existence is logical according to ancient philosophers like Plato and Aristotle. It then discusses several arguments for God's existence, including that design indicates a designer, the complexity of living things cannot be explained by chance, and that belief in God is part of human fitrah (natural disposition). The document aims to convince non-believers through reason and argues that atheism and Darwinism fail to provide satisfactory explanations for the origin and purpose of life.
This document discusses various dangers that can exist in the home if proper precautions are not taken. It highlights issues like allowing non-mahram relatives to enter when the husband is absent, having mixed family gatherings where hijab is not properly observed, employing non-Muslim servants who could influence children with beliefs of kufr, and relying too heavily on servants which causes women to neglect their duties and responsibilities in the home. The document advises segregating men and women during visits, avoiding situations where women are alone with non-mahram drivers, and considering the harms that can come from having servants in the home, such as corruption, theft, or spreading kufr beliefs to children.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

A renowned commentator of Quran, a great thinker of Ummah,
Mufti Ahmad Yar Khan has stated regarding verse
number 5 of Surah Al-Maa’oon, ‘There are some cases in which
neglecting Salah is found: For example, never offering Salah,
offering Salah irregularly, not offering Salah at proper time,
offering Salah incorrectly, offering Salah unwillingly, offering
Salah without understanding and pondering, offering Salah lazily
and carelessly.’ (However, not all the above-mentioned cases of
heedlessness are considered sins.) (Noor-ul-‘Irfan, pp. 958)

A leading and legendary scholar of Shari’ah and Tareeqah,
Maulana Muhammad Amjad ‘Ali A’zami ȹ ۡ has

Those who miss their Salah deliberately deserve to be punished
in it.’ (Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 1, pp. 347; summarized)

Sayyiduna Imam Muhammad Bin Ahmad Zahabi ȹ ۡ

Punishment of head-crushing
The Prophet of Rahmah ٖ ʋ ʄ said to his blessed
companions ʝȹ : Two angels (Jibra`eel and Mika`eel
) came to me tonight and took me to the sacred land
where I saw that a person was lying and another person was
standing by his head, holding a stone. The standing person was
repeatedly crushing the head of the lying person with the stone
and every time his head would heal.
I asked the angels, ‘ ۡبُس
ّٰ
ا َنٰح who is he?’ They requested me to
come ahead (and after showing to me some more scenes) they
answered, ‘The first person you saw was the one who had given
up acting upon the Holy Quran after learning it and would
sleep at the time of Fard Salah, (so) he will be punished like
that until the Day of Judgement.’

Deserving of the torment of thousands of years

torment of Hell for thousands of years unless he repents and
offers the missed Salah as Qada. If Muslims utterly give up
meeting, talking and sitting with such a person, he does deserve
it. Allah says:

Flames of fire in grave
A man’s sister died. After he returned from the graveyard having
buried her, he recalled that his pouch of money had dropped
into her grave. So he came to the graveyard to dig it out. When
he dug the grave open, he saw a terrifying scene. The flames of
fire were blazing in the grave. He hurriedly filled up the grave
and rushed desperately to his mother and asked, ‘Dear mother!
What were the deeds of my sister?’ She said, ‘Son! Why are you
asking?’ He replied, ‘I have seen flames of fire blazing in her
grave.’ On hearing this, his mother began to cry and said, ‘Your
sister would show laziness in Salah and would offer Salah beyond
the stipulated time.’ (Kitab-ul-Kaba`ir, pp. 26)

Dear Islamic brothers! When there are such severe torments
for those who offer Salah beyond the stipulated time, then how
destructive could be the doom of those who do not offer Salah
at all!
If anyone forgets to offer Salah then…?
The Noble Prophet ٖ ʋ ʄ said, ‘If anyone misses his
Salah due to sleep or forgetfulness, he should offer it when he
recalls as it would be the time of that Salah (for him).’
(Sahih Muslim, pp. 346, Hadees 684)
The respected Islamic jurists ȹ stated, ‘If anyone
misses his Salah due to sleep or forgetfulness, it is Fard for him
to offer it as Qada. There will be no sin of missing the Salah for
him in this case. However, if it is not a Makruh time, he should
offer the Salah as soon as he recalls or wakes up. Further delay
is Makruh.’ (Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 1, pp. 701)
Missing Salah by chance
It is stated in Fatawa Razawiyyah:
C If a person thinks that he will miss Salah in case of going to
sleep at a certain time, it is not permissible for him to go to
sleep in this situation. However, if there is some trustworthy
person to wake him up, he can go to sleep.
www.dawateislami.net
12. Method of Missed Salah

C If a person habitually wakes up within the time of Salah in
case of going to sleep at a certain time but he could not wake
up some day by chance, he will not be sinner.
(Fawa`id Jaleelah Fatawa Razawiyyah, vol. 4, pp. 698)
Reward of Ada or Qada?
Stated below is a piece of writing taken from a Fatwa about
whether or not one will earn the reward of timely offered Salat-ul-
Fajr in case of offering it after the elapsing of Shari’ah-declared
specific time due to sleep:
My master A’la Hadrat, leader of the Ahl-e-Sunnah, reviver of
Sunnah, eradicator of Bid’ah, scholar of Shari’ah, ‘Allamah
Maulana Al-Haj, Al-Haafiz, Al-Qaari, Ash-Shah Imam Ahmad
Raza Khan has stated on page 161 of Fatawa
Razawiyyah in volume 8: As far as receiving the reward of timely
offered Salah is concerned, it is under the Power of Allah .
If the person is not negligent at all, and he had intended to stay
awake till the time of Salah starts but fell asleep involuntarily,
he would not be a sinner.’ The Noble Prophet ٖ ʋ ʄ
has stated, ‘There is no negligence in case of sleeping. Negligence
is from the person who does not offer Salah (despite being awake)
until the time of next Salah begins.’
(Sahih Muslim, pp. 344, Hadees 681)
www.dawateislami.net
13. Method of Missed Salah

Sleeping in the last part of the night
If anyone goes to sleep after the time of Salah had started and
resultantly, the time (of Salah) elapsed, making the Salah Qada,
he will definitely become sinner. This ruling will apply when he
is not confident enough to wake up nor is there someone else
who can wake him up. In fact, it cannot be permitted to go to
sleep even before the starting of timing of Salat-ul-Fajr if most
part of the night was spent in wakefulness and it is almost sure
that one will not be able to wake up within the time (of Fajr) in
case of going to sleep in the above situation.
(Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 1, pp. 701)
Staying awake till late night
Dear Islamic brothers! If there is a fear of missing Salat-ul-Fajr
due to staying awake till late night in gatherings of Zikr and
Na’at, religious congregations etc. one should go to sleep in the
Masjid in this type of situation with the intention of I’tikaf or
at a place where some trustworthy person will wake him up.
Alternatively, one can set an alarm clock which can wake him
up but one should not depend upon just one alarm as it may
run down or turn off because of being hit by hand in sleep. The
respected scholars ȹ have said, ‘If one fears that he will
miss Salat-ul-Fajr, he is not allowed to stay awake till late night
without Shar’i permission.’ (Rad-dul-Muhtar, vol. 2, pp. 33)
www.dawateislami.net
14. Method of Missed Salah

Definitions of Ada, Qada and Wajib-ul-I’adah
Carrying out commandments within Shari’ah-declared specific
timing is called Ada. Carrying out commandments after the
Shari’ah-declared specific timing has ended, is called Qada. If
there is some fault in carrying out a commandment, repeating
that act of worship to remove the fault is called I’adah. If
Takbeer-e-Tahrimah is uttered within the specific time, Salah
would not become Qada; it is still Ada.
(Durr-e-Mukhtar, vol. 2, pp. 627-632)
But in case of Fajr, Jumu’ah, and both Eid Salah, it is necessary
to perform Salam (of Salah) within the specific time; otherwise
Salah will not be valid. (Bahar-e-Shari’at, pp. 701, vol. 1)
To miss Salah without a Shar’i reason is a major sin. It is Fard
to perform it as Qada and repent of it with the sincerity of the
heart. By means of repentance or an accepted Hajj, the sin of
delay (in offering Salah) will be forgiven, ˠ ȹ .
(Durr-e-Mukhtar, vol. 2, pp. 626)
Repentance will only be valid if one offers Qada of the missed
Salah. Repentance without performing Qada is not repentance
because the Salah which he was required to offer, is still unoffered
and how can repentance be valid without refraining from sin!
(Rad-dul-Muhtar, vol. 2, pp. 627)

Sayyiduna Ibn ‘Abbas ʝȹ stated that the Beloved
Prophet ٖ ʋ ʄ said, ‘The one who repents without
giving up sins is like the one who jokes with Allah .’
(Shu’ab-ul-Iman, vol. 5, pp. 436, Hadees 7178)
Three essentials of repentance
‘Allamah Sayyid Muhammad Na’eemuddin Muradabadi
ۡ ȹۡ has stated: There are three essentials of repentance:
1. Admitting the sin.
2. Feeling ashamed.
3. Determination to give up the sin. If the sin is compensable,
it must be compensated. For example, it is necessary for the
validity of the repentance of the Salah-missing person to
offer the missed Salah as Qada besides repentance.’
(Khaza`in-ul-‘Irfan, pp. 12)
It is Wajib to wake up a sleeping person for Salah
If someone is asleep or has forgotten to offer Salah, it is Wajib for
the other who is aware of it to wake up the sleeping person or
remind the one who has forgotten to offer Salah. (Otherwise, the
one who is aware will be a sinner.) (Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 1, pp. 701)
Remember! Waking or reminding will be Wajib only when there
is a strong possibility that he will offer the Salah, otherwise not.

Wake up, it’s time for Fajr!
Dear Islamic brothers! Reap rich reward by waking up sleeping
Islamic brothers for Salah. In the Madani environment of
Dawat-e-Islami, waking Muslims for Salat-ul-Fajr is called
‘Sada-e-Madinah.’ Though Sada-e-Madinah is not Wajib,
awakening Muslims for Salat-ul-Fajr is an act of reward which
every Muslim should perform. However, care must be taken not
to cause trouble to any Muslim while calling Sada-e-Madinah.
Parable
An Islamic brother told me (the author): Some Islamic
brothers including me were passing through a street calling
Sada-e-Madinah using a megaphone during the time of Fajr.
Meanwhile, interrupting us, a person said that his child who
could not sleep all the night had just gone to sleep. He requested
us not to use the megaphone. We got annoyed with him and
thought, ‘Which type of Muslim is he? We are awaking people
for Salah and he is preventing us.’ By chance, the next day we
again moved towards the same street calling Sada-e-Madinah.
The same person was standing, worried at the corner of the
street. He said to us, ‘Today again my son could not sleep all the
night, he has just gone to sleep, I am standing here to request
you to pass through this street silently.’
This parable shows that Sada-e-Madinah should be called
without using a megaphone. Even when calling Sada-e-Madinah
without a megaphone, one should not raise his voice so loudly
www.dawateislami.net
17. Method of Missed Salah
11
that it disturbs Islamic sisters offering Salah or reciting the
Holy Quran inside their homes, patients, aged people and
children or those who have fallen asleep after offering the Salah
in its initial time. If someone prevents us from calling Sada-e-
Madinah we should humbly beg his pardon instead of arguing
with him. Furthermore, we should have positive opinion about
him because, surely, no Muslim can oppose awaking people for
Salah. Most probably, he would be facing some genuine problems.
Even if he does not offer Salah, we are still not authorised to
behave harshly towards him. Instead, we should politely make
individual effort on any other appropriate occasion trying to
motivate him to offer Salah.
Except for the Azan of Fajr etc., care should be taken in using
Masjid speakers or using sound systems for gatherings in
streets or homes making it sure that the sound of the speaker
should not disturb those worshipping at homes, patients, babies,
sleeping ones etc.
Parable about ‘realization of public rights’
It is very essential to be careful about the fulfilment of public
rights. Our pious predecessors were very careful about it.
Hujjat-ul-Islam, Sayyiduna Imam Muhammad Ghazali
ۡ ȹ ۡ stated that there was a person who spent many
years in the company of Sayyiduna Imam Ahmad Bin Hanbal
ʋ , gaining religious knowledge. One day, as he came,
the Imam turned his face away (expressing his annoyance).
www.dawateislami.net
18. Method of Missed Salah
12
When the person insisted that he should be told about the
reason of annoyance, he ʋ said, ‘You have made an
extra wall at the roadside corner of your house, whereas it is
the pathway of Muslims’.’ That is, ‘How can I be pleased with
you whereas you have narrowed the pathway of Muslims!’
(Ihya-ul-‘Uloom, vol. 5, pp. 96; summarized)
This parable contains lesson for those who narrow the pathway
of Muslims by having terraces etc. constructed outside their homes.

Offer Qada Salah as soon as possible
It is Wajib to offer those Salah as soon as possible that have
been Qada (i.e. missed). However, delay is permissible because
of earning a living for family and fulfilling personal needs.
Therefore, one should continue to earn a living and offer Qada
Salah in spare times until all Qada Salah are offered.
(Durr-e-Mukhtar, vol. 2, pp. 646)
Offer Qada Salah in privacy
Offer Qada Salah in privacy. Do not tell it to others including
even family members and close friends (for example, do not
say: I have missed Salat-ul-Fajr today or I am offering Qada of
missed Salah of lifetime etc.). Remember that mentioning a sin
to others is Makruh Tahreemi and a sin.
(Rad-dul-Muhtar, vol. 2, pp. 650)
www.dawateislami.net
19. Method of Missed Salah
13
Therefore, do not raise hands for the Takbeer of Qunoot while
offering Qada of Salat-ul-Witr in the presence of others.
Lifetime Qada on the last Friday of Ramadan
Some people offer Qada of lifetime missed Salah in congregation
on the last Friday of Ramadan-ul-Mubarak and assume that all
the Qada Salah of lifetime have been offered by offering this
one Salah. It is absolutely wrong. (Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 1, pp. 708)
Calculation of Qada Salah of the whole life
The one who never offered Salah and is now blessed with the
intention of offering the Qada of lifetime missed Salah should
make a calculation from the day when he reached puberty. If the
date of puberty is not known, it is safer that a male should make
calculation from the age of 12 years and a female should do the
same from the age of 9 years according to the Hijri calendar.
Sequence of offering Qada Salah
In order to offer lifetime Qada Salah, one may also first offer
all Salat-ul-Fajr, then all Salat-uz-Zuhr and then ‘Asr, Maghrib
and Salat-ul-‘Isha.
Method of offering Qada Salah of lifetime (Hanafi)
There are 20 Rak’aat of Qada Salah in a day: Two Rak’aat Fard
of Fajr, four of Zuhr, four of ‘Asr, three of Maghrib, four
of ‘Isha and three Rak’aat of Witr. Make intention like this:
www.dawateislami.net
20. Method of Missed Salah
14
‘I am offering the very first Fajr I missed.’ Similar intention may
be made for every missed Salah. If one is to offer a large
number of missed Salah, it is permissible for him to avail the
following relaxations:
1. One may utter the Tasbihat in Ruku’ and Sujood
ْﺒُﺳَﻦٰﺤَ ِّﰉَرْﻟاْﻴِﻈَﻌِﻢ and َﻦٰﺤْﺒُﺳَ ِّﰉَرَ ْاﻻْʋٰʄ one time instead of
three times. However, he must always make sure in all types
of Salah that he start uttering the ْﲔِﺳ of ﻦ ٰﺤْﺒُﺳ having
completely bent for Ruku’ and that he begin to lift his
head up from Ruku’ having uttered the ْﻴِﻣﻢ of ﻢْﻴِﻈَﻋ .
Similar care should be taken in Sajdah.
2. One may utter َﻦٰﺤْﺒُﺳِɟّٰﻠاﻟ three times in the 3rd
and 4th
Rak’at of Fard Salah instead of reciting Surah Al-Fatihah,
but he should remember that Surah Al-Fatihah and a
Surah must be recited in all the three Rak’aat of Witr.
3. In the last Qa’dah, one should perform the Salam having
uttered just ɟِﻟٰاَّو ٍﺪَّﻤَﺤُﻣ ٰʄَʋ ِّﻞ َﺻ َّﻢُɡّٰﻠَﻟاٖ after Tashahhud َﺎتِّﻴﺤَّﺘﻟَا
without reciting the remaining Salat-‘Alan-Nabi and Du’a.
4. One may utter just ْﻏا ِّبَرْﺮِﻔْ ِﱃ one time or three times
instead of the Du’a of Qunoot in the third Rak’at of Witr
after uttering ْﮐَاُɟّٰﻠَﻟاُ َﱪ .
(Summarized from: Fatawa Razawiyyah – referenced, vol. 8, pp. 157)
www.dawateislami.net
21. Method of Missed Salah
15
Remember! Never make a habit of offering daily Salah
with these relaxations (except for point no. 2 mentioned
above). Offer daily Salah fulfilling Sunnah and Mustahab
acts in addition to Fard and Wajib ones.
Qada of Qasr Salah
If the Qada Salah missed in travelling is to be offered in the
state of Iqamat [i.e. stay], it will be offered as Qasr [shortened].
If the Qada Salah missed in the state of Iqamat is to be offered
in travelling, it will be offered completely without being
shortened. (Fatawa ‘Aalamgiri, vol. 1, pp. 121)
Are those Salah to be offered that were missed in
apostasy period
Allah forbid, if someone becomes Murtad1
and then accepts
Islam again, he is not required to offer the Qada of the Salah
missed during the period of remaining Murtad. However, it is
Wajib to offer the Qada of the Salah missed in the state of
Islam before becoming Murtad. (Rad-dul-Muhtar, vol. 2, pp. 647)
1
Murtad is the person who had embraced Islam or was already Muslim but then
denies anything which is from the essentials of Islam, e.g. denying the obligation
of Salah. Similarly, if a person does certain acts such as prostrating in front of idols
or throwing the Glorious Quran at filth, he becomes disbeliever.
(Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 2, pp. 455)
www.dawateislami.net
22. Method of Missed Salah

Salah at the time of delivery
If the midwife fears that the baby will die in case of her offering
Salah, it is a valid reason for her to miss Salah in this situation.
If the head of the baby has come out and there is a fear that the
time of Salah will end before post-natal bleeding starts, it is
Fard for the mother to offer the Salah even in this condition. If
she does not offer Salah, she will be a sinner. Salah should be
offered after the head of the baby is placed in some dish etc. in
such a careful way that no harm is caused to it. However, if
there is a fear of the baby’s death in case of offering Salah even
in this way, delay is forgiven. Qada of this Salah is to be offered
after post-natal bleeding has stopped. (Ibid, pp. 627)
In which condition a patient is exempted from Salah?
The patient who is not in a condition to offer Salah even by
gestures is exempted from offering Salah. This ruling will apply
when the same serious condition of the patient continues till
the next six (consecutive) Salahs. Offering Qada of the Salah
missed under this condition is not Wajib.
(Fatawa ‘Aalamgiri, vol. 1, pp. 121)
Repeating the Salah of lifetime
If there is some fault or disliked act in somebody’s Salah, it is
good for him to repeat all Salahs of his lifetime. If there is no
fault, repeating the Salah is not advisable. However, if he still
www.dawateislami.net
23. Method of Missed Salah
17
wants to repeat, he should not offer such Salah after Fajr and
‘Asr. A Surah should also be recited after Surah Al-Fatihah in
all Rak’aat. In Witr, after reciting Du’a of Qunoot and performing
Qa’dah in the third Rak’at, he should add one more Rak’at to
make four in all. (Fatawa ‘Aalamgiri, vol. 1, pp. 124)
If someone forgot to utter the word ‘Qada’, then...?
A’la Hadrat, leader of the Ahl-e-Sunnah, Maulana Shah Imam
Ahmad Raza Khan has said, ‘Our scholars have
approved that offering Qada with the intention of Ada and
offering Ada with the intention of Qada, are both valid.’
(Fatawa Razawiyyah – referenced, vol. 8, pp. 161)
Offer Qada Salah of lifetime in place of Nawafil
It is stated in Fatawa Shaami: It is better and more important
to offer Qada Salah than to offer Nafl Salah. However, one should
offer Sunnat-ul-Muakkadah Salah, Chasht Salah, Salat-ut-Tasbih
and the ones narrated in Ahadees. For example, Tahiyya-tul-
Masjid Salah, four Sunnat-e-Ghayr Muakkadah Salah before
‘Asr and six Rak’aat after Maghrib may also be offered.
(Rad-dul-Muhtar, vol. 2, pp. 646)
Remember! It is not permissible to miss Sunnat-ul-Muakkadah
Salah in order to offer missed Salah. If one offers Sunnat-e-Ghayr
Muakkadah and Nafl mentioned in Ahadees, he will deserve
www.dawateislami.net
24. Method of Missed Salah
18
to be rewarded but he will not be sinner in case of missing
them regardless of whether he is required to offer missed Salah
or not.
Offering Nafl is not permissible after Fajr and ‘Asr Salah
After Fajr and ‘Asr, it is Makruh (Tahreemi) to offer all the
intentional Nawafil including Tahiyya-tul-Masjid and every
such Salah that becomes obligatory because of a certain reason
such as Nawafil of Tawaf and Nazr. Likewise, there is the same
ruling for every such Salah that is invalidated after being
initiated even if it is Sunnah Salah of Fajr or ‘Asr.
(Durr-e-Mukhtar, vol. 2, pp. 44, 45)
There is no specific timing for offering Qada Salah. One may
fulfil this obligation at any time during his life but it should not
be offered at sunrise, sunset and mid-day (Zawaal) as Salah is
not permissible at these times.
(Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 1, pp. 702; ‘Aalamgiri, vol. 1, pp. 52)
What to do if four Sunan of Zuhr are missed?
In case of offering the Fard of Salat-uz-Zuhr first, offer two
Rak’aat Sunnah Salah after the Fard Rak’aat and then offer four
Rak’aat Sunnah Salah. A’la Hadrat ʋ has stated, ‘The
four Rak’aat Sunnah Salah, if not offered before Fard Salah,
should be offered after Fard Salah preferably after offering two
www.dawateislami.net
25. Method of Missed Salah
19
Rak’aat Sunnah Salah provided that Zuhr timing has not yet
ended. This ruling is preferred by Islamic Jurisprudence.’
(Fatawa Razawiyyah – referenced, vol. 8, pp. 148)
What to do if two Sunan of Fajr are missed?
If there is a risk of missing the congregational Salah of Fajr in
case of offering Sunan of Fajr, one should join congregational
Salah missing the Sunan Salah. But offering the missed Sunan
Salah after the Salam (of Fard Rak’aat) is not permissible. It is
Mustahab to offer it twenty minutes after the sunrise but before
Dahwa Kubra.
Is time for Salat-ul-Maghrib really short?
The time of Salat-ul-Maghrib starts at sunset and ends as soon
as the timing of Salat-ul-‘Isha starts. The duration of Maghrib
timing increases and decreases according to the location and
date. For example, in Bab-ul-Madinah Karachi, minimum
duration of Salat-ul-Maghrib is 1 hour and 18 minutes as per
the calendar of Salah timings. Islamic scholars ȹ have
said: Except for cloudy days, offering Salat-ul-Maghrib in initial
time is Mustahab. Making a delay for as long as two Rak’aat
of Salah may be offered is Makruh Tanzeehi and delaying –
without a valid reason such as journey or sickness – to such an
extent that clusters of stars appear is Makruh Tahreemi.
(Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 1, pp. 453)
www.dawateislami.net
26. Method of Missed Salah
20
A’la Hadrat, Maulana Shah Imam Ahmad Raza Khan
stated: The time to offer Maghrib Salah remains Mustahab unless
stars appear clearly. Making so much delay that small stars (in
addition to the big ones) start shining is Makruh Tahreemi.’
(Fatawa Razawiyyah – referenced, vol. 5, pp. 153)
The Sunnah Salah offered before Fard Salah of ‘Asr and ‘Isha
are called Sunnat-e-Ghayr Muakkadah. It is not necessary to
offer them as Qada, if missed.
What is the ruling regarding Qada of Taraweeh?
If Taraweeh Salah is missed, one is not required to offer it as
Qada; neither in congregation nor individually. If someone
offers Qada of Taraweeh, these will be regarded as Nafl Salah
which has nothing to do with Taraweeh.
(Tanweer-ul-Absaar Durr-e-Mukhtar, vol. 2, pp. 598)
Fidyah for missed Salah
[Those whose relatives have passed away must read the
following details.]
Ask about the age of the deceased person. If the deceased is a
female, subtract 9 years and if the deceased is a male, subtract
12 years from the total years of their age as the non-puberty
period. Now, for the remaining years, make a calculation
considering how long the deceased person missed Salahs or
www.dawateislami.net
27. Method of Missed Salah
21
fasts of Ramadan i.e. find out the number of Salahs and fasts of
Ramadan whose Qada is obligatory on them. Make an over-
estimate. You can even make a calculation for the whole life
excluding the non-puberty period. Now donate one Sadaqah
Fitr to (any Shari’ah-declared) Faqeer for each Salah. The
amount of one Sadaqah Fitr is 1.920 kg of wheat or its flour or
its price. The number of Salahs is six in each day; i.e. five Fard
Salahs and one Witr Wajib. For instance, if the price of 1.920
kg wheat is Rs. 12, the amount of one day’s Salahs will be Rs.
72 and that of 30 days’ Salahs, will be Rs. 2160. For 12 months,
the amount will be Rs. 25920. If the Fidyah [expiation] of the
Salahs of 50 years is to be paid for a deceased person, Rs.
1296000 will have to be donated.
Obviously, not everyone possesses enough money to donate
this amount. In order to resolve this problem, our scholars
ȹ have described an alternative mechanism known as
Shar’i Heelah e.g. one may make some Shari’ah-declared
Faqeer owner of Rs. 2160 and give it under his possession with
the intention of Fidyah for all the Salahs of 30 days. In this
way, Fidyah of Salahs of 30 days will get paid. Now, that Faqeer
should gift that amount to the payer. Having taken the amount
in his possession, the payer should again make the Faqeer
owner of it and give it under his possession with the intention
of Fidyah of Salahs of another 30 days. This exchange should
continue till Fidyah of all Salahs gets paid.
www.dawateislami.net
28. Method of Missed Salah
22
It is not necessary to perform the Heelah with the amount of
30 days. It has been stated just as an example. Suppose that the
amount for the Fidyah of 50 years is available, a single
exchange will be sufficient. It should also be noted that the
calculation for the amount of Fidyah will have to be made
according to the latest price of wheat. Similarly, there is one
Sadaqah Fitr for each fast. Having paid Fidyah of Salahs, the
Fidyah of fasts may also be paid in the same way. Poor and rich
both may avail the facility of Heelah. If inheritors carry out this
deed, it will be a great help for their deceased. In this way, the
deceased person will be relieved of the obligations and the
inheritors will also deserve reward, ˠ ȹ . Some people
donate a copy of the Holy Quran to a Masjid etc. assuming that
they have paid Fidyah of all the Salahs of the deceased person.
It is their misconception. (For details, see referenced Fatawa
Razawiyyah, volume 8, page 168.)
Rulings about the Fidyah for a deceased woman
At first, subtract 9 years from the total years of the deceased
woman’s age. Then, if her monthly menstrual period is known,
subtract the number of days equal to the total period of menses.
If the monthly menstrual period is not known, subtract three
days from each month. However, the days of menstrual period
will not be subtracted from the months of pregnancy. Moreover,
if the duration of deceased woman’s post-natal bleeding is
known, the days equal to the total period of post-natal bleeding
www.dawateislami.net
29. Method of Missed Salah
23
may be subtracted for each pregnancy. If it is not known,
nothing will be subtracted as there is no limit on minimum
period of post-natal bleeding. It is possible that bleeding may
have stopped in a minute and she may have become pure.
(Derived from: Fatawa Razawiyyah – referenced, vol. 8, pp. 154)
Fidyah for Salah cannot be given to the descendants
of the Holy Prophet
My master A’la Hadrat, leader of the Ahl-e-Sunnah, Maulana
Shah Imam Ahmad Raza Khan was asked a
question whether the amount of Fidyah for Salah may be given
to the descendants of the Holy Prophet and to the non-
Muslims or not, so he ʋ replied, ‘This charity (i.e. the
amount of Fidyah for Salah) is not worthy of being given to
the descendants of the Holy Prophet and [remember that] the
disbelievers of the Indian subcontinent such as the Hindus etc.
are not worthy of being given this charity. It is not permitted at
all to give it to these two types of people. If given to them, it
will not be valid. Giving it to Muslims and relatives who are
Masakeen and are not the descendants of the Holy Prophet will
earn the giver double reward.

Heelah of 100 whips
Justification for Shar’i Heelah is seen in the Holy Quran, Hadees
and authentic books of Hanafi school of thought. For example,
once the noble wife of Sayyiduna Ayyub ʎ ʄ was
late in reaching his blessed court during the period of his illness,
so he swore to hit her 100 whips after recovering from
illness. When he recovered, Allah ordered him to
hit her with a broom made of 100 straws. The Holy Quran says:
ۡۡۡ ۡ
ٖ
ۡ ۡ
And take a broom in your hand, hit with it and do not
break your oath.
[Kanz-ul-Iman (Translation of Quran)] (Part 23, Surah Saad, verse 44)
There is a complete chapter on the topic of Heelah titled
ِ
ۡ
ال ُابَِتكلَي [Kitab-ul-Hiyal] in the famous Hanafi book ‘Aalamgiri.
It is stated in the same book: It is Makruh to perform a Heelah
to deprive someone of his rights; or to create doubt in it; or to
deceive anyone unlawfully. However, the Heelah that is aimed
at preventing someone from committing Haraam or at attaining
something Halal is good. The following Quranic verse is a proof
for the permissibility of such types of Heelah:

(Fatawa ‘Aalamgiri, vol. 6, pp. 390)
When did the tradition of ear-piercing start?
Presented here is another proof for the permissibility of
Heelah. Sayyiduna ‘Abdullah Ibn ‘Abbas ʝȹ stated:
Once there was a discord between Sayyidatuna Sarah and
Sayyidatuna Haajirah ʝȹ . Sayyidatuna Sarah ʝ
swore that she would cut a bodily organ of Sayyidatuna
Haajirah ʝ if she got a chance. Allah sent

Cow’s meat as gift
The mother of the believers, Sayyidatuna ‘Aaishah Siddiqah
ʝ has reported that once some cow-meat was
presented in the court of the Holy Prophet ʄȹ ٖ .
Someone told the Beloved Prophet ٖ ʋ ʄ that this
meat was donated to Sayyidatuna Bareerah ʝ as Sadaqah
(charity). The Beloved and Blessed Prophet ٖ ʋ ʄ
replied, ‘ َّو
ٌ
ة
َ
قَد َص اَه
َ
ل َو
ُ
ه
ٌ
ةَِّيد
َ
ه اَ َ
ل (i.e. it was Sadaqah for her but
it is a gift for us).’ (Sahih Muslim, pp. 541, Hadees 1075)
Shar’i Heelah for Zakah
The above Hadees clearly indicates that the meat donated as
Sadaqah to Sayyidatuna Bareerah ʝ who was deserving
of Sadaqah was doubtlessly Sadaqah for her. However, when
the same meat, after being given in her possession, was
presented in the court of the Holy Prophet ٖ ʋ ʄ its
ruling changed completely and it was no longer Sadaqah.
Similarly, after a Zakah-deserving person has taken Zakah in
his possession, he may gift it to anybody or donate it to Masjid
etc. because this donation from that deserving person is now a
kind of gift, not Zakah. Islamic scholars ȹ have
described a Shar’i Heelah for Zakah that is as follows: The money
of Zakah cannot be used to pay for the burial or shrouding
expenses of a deceased or for the construction of Masjid because
Tamleek-e-Faqeer (i.e. making the Faqeer owner of Zakah) is
www.dawateislami.net
33. Method of Missed Salah
27
missing here. However, if the money of Zakah is to be spent on
such matters, give Zakah to some Faqeer so that he become
its owner and now that Faqeer may spend the money (on the
construction of Masjid etc.); both will gain reward.
(Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 1, pp. 890)
Dear Islamic brothers! Did you see! The amount of Zakah can
be spent on shrouds, burial and even on the construction of
Masjid by means of Shar’i Heelah. The amount of Zakah remains
Zakah unless it is given to Faqeer. Once the Faqeer has taken
possession of it, he will become owner of it and will be able to
spend it wherever he likes. By the blessings of Shar’i Heelah,
the Zakah of the person who has given it has got paid and the
Faqeer has also become deserving of reward by donating it to
Masjid. The ruling of Heelah can also be explained to Shar’i
Faqeer.
Definition of ‘Faqeer’
A Faqeer is the one who possesses at least a few things but
those things are less than the amount of Nisab; or Faqeer is the
one who possesses things valued up to the amount of Nisab,
but these things are being currently used for the fulfilment of
his basic necessities e.g. a house for living, household items,
animals (scooter or car) for travelling, tools for a craftsman,
clothes for wearing, male and female slaves to serve their master,
and necessarily required Islamic books for anyone interested in
religious study. Similarly, if someone is in debt and, on
www.dawateislami.net
34. Method of Missed Salah
28
deduction of his debt, the amount of things would be less than
the amount of Nisab; so such a person is also Faqeer, no matter
the value of the things he possesses as a whole is equivalent to
many Nisabs.
(Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 1, pp. 924; Rad-dul-Muhtar, vol. 3, pp. 333)
Definition of ‘Miskeen’
A Miskeen is the one who does not possess anything and who
has to beg others for food to eat and for clothes to cover his
body. Begging is Halal (allowed) for him.
For a Faqeer (i.e. the one who possesses food to eat at least for a
day and clothes to wear), begging without need and compulsion
is Haraam. (Fatawa ‘Aalamgiri, vol. 1, pp. 187-188; Bahar-e-Shari’at,
vol. 1, pp. 924)
Dear Islamic brothers! It became obvious that the beggars who
beg habitually without Shari’ah-approved need and compulsion
despite being capable enough to earn a living are sinners. Further,
if anyone is aware of the real condition of these people, it is not
permissible for him to give donation to them.
