If a person has made up the prayers they delayed beyond their prescribed times, repented, and committed to performing prayers on time, then they are not required to make them up again, as their obligation has been fulfilled by the make-up. It is not prescribed to make up a prayer twice. They must be careful not to be negligent with prayer or delay it beyond its time without a valid legal excuse, as that is a great sin that necessitates immediate repentance.
