Question

Asalaam Alaikum wa Rahmatullah.

When calculating qaza e umri namaaz and specifically the namaaz of Friday, should we calculate 2 qaza farz of Jummah or should we calculate 4 qaza farz of Zohur for Friday.

JazakAllah.

Answer

Wa alaykumussalam.

To make Salah qaza without a valid Shar’i reason is a major sin. It is obligatory upon the one who misses any Fard salah to make up for the Salah he has missed and sincerely repent.

When calculating qaza e umri, one will only include the Fard and Wajib of each day. Per day, there are in total 17 Fard rak’ats (Fajr: 2, Zuhr: 4, Asr: 4, Maghrib: 3, Isha: 4) and 3 Wajib rak’ats (Witr of Isha). One does not include the 2 Fard of Jumu’ah in this calculation, but instead will include 4 Fard of Zuhr, as there is no qaza of Jumu’ah Salah.

And Allah knows best.
