Must the 'Isha prayer be made up after menstruation ends if menstruation began before the prayer's time commenced?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

However, if she did not pray Maghrib until her menstruation began, there is a difference of opinion on this matter, and the more cautious approach is to make it up.
