Must prayers performed with a slight feeling of drowsiness be re-offered, knowing that the drowsiness was not overwhelming and out of fear of the prayer's time expiring?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The reason for this is that drowsiness might lead the worshiper to revile himself without realizing it.
