If I prayed Isha, or any other prayer, and then 1 hour later I see a cut with dried blood around it, does it mean I have to pray Isha again? I didn't notice any blood from the cut until then.

Question

If I prayed Isha, or any other prayer, and then 1 hour later I see a cut with dried blood around it, does it mean I have to pray Isha again? I didn't notice any blood from the cut until then.

Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatoh

If one noticed najaasah (impurity) greater than the size of a dirham sometime after praying salah, and did not notice it or know of it until then, the salah will be valid and will not have to be repeated.

ومشايخنا قالوا في البول يعتبر من آخر ما بال وفي الدم من آخر ما رعف وفي المني من آخر ما احتلم أو جامع كذا في البدائع ومراده بالاحتلام النوم ؛ لأنه سببه بدليل ما نقله في المحيط عن ابن رستم أنه يعيد من آخر نومة نامها فيه واختار في المحيط أنه لا يعيد شيئا لو رأى دما

When do Fajr and Esha times start and end?

“According to the Mufta-Bihi view that is practiced upon in the Hanafi Madhab, when the Shafi’ee Asr time sets in, the time of Zuhr is still remaining; therefore in principle yes, the Zuhr Salaah will be valid if a Hanafi delays…”
