Is a menstruating woman required to make up for missed prayers and fasting after becoming pure?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
A menstruating woman makes up for missed fasts but not for missed prayers, based on what was authentically reported from Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that she said: "We were commanded to make up for the fasts, but we were not commanded to make up for the prayers."
