Question

Is it permissible to perform a missed prayer after the Asr and Fajr salaah?

Also is it permissible to perform nafil salaah after Fajr and Asr salaah?

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salamu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullahi wa-barakatuh.

It is permissible to perform Qadha Salaahs (missed Salaahs) after Asr and Fajr Salaahs.

However it will be Makrooh ( disliked ) to perform Nafil (optional ) prayers after Asr until Magrib and Fajr until sunrise.

And Allah Ta’ala Knows Best

How do I make up missed salaah (qadha)?

“Performing Qadha salaah in one's home or in the musjid is permissible. However, after the time of fajr enters and after performing your asr salaah, if you wish to perform Qadha salaah, then perform it in your home.”
