Calculating qadha Salaah
Question
One is not aware when one became matured i.e. became baalig. To then calculate all one’s missed (Quaza) salaats from when one became mature, should the calculation be deemed from the age of 12 or 15?
Answer
If one did not experience a wet dream before the age of fifteen, then one should calculate from the age of fifteen.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) 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.”
