Do I Have to Repeat the Prayer After Finding Out it was Performed After Expiry?


Answered by Mawlana Ilyas Patel

Question

Is my prayer valid if I, as a Shar’i excused (Ma’dhur) person, prayed outside the prayer time due to OCD causing a delay in wudu?

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful and Compassionate

I pray you are well.

No, you will not have to repeat your prayer. It will now be classed as a missed (qada) prayer. You will not have to renew your wudu due to the expiry of the prayer time.

[Ibn ’Abidin, Radd al-Muhtar]
