The answer

If someone inadvertently omits a condition () or a pillar (rukn) of prayer due to ignorance, the majority of scholars hold that they must make up the prayer (qada’). However, Ibn Taymiyyah is of the view that making up the prayer is not obligatory. The preferred opinion is to make up the prayers, given that the period (of omission) is short, and to avoid scholarly disagreement.
