Is it permissible to make up a large number of missed 'Isha prayers by distributing them throughout different times of the day (after 'Asr, after Maghrib, after 'Isha) each day until completion?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

According to the majority of scholars, which is the preponderant opinion, one must make up for prayers deliberately missed. As for one who missed a prayer due to an excuse, such as sleep or forgetfulness, making it up is obligatory upon him by agreement of the jurists. The making up must be done immediately, at any time of night or day. It is permissible to make up a night prayer during the day and vice versa.
