Answer:
Missed prayers
In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask
for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever
He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that
there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that
Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 4 Surah
Nisaa verse 103:
Indeed the Salaat is a prescribed duty that
should be performed by the believers at (their) appointed times.
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 2 Surah
Baqarah verses 45-46:
45 Nay seek (Allah's) help with patient perseverance and ‘salaah’: it
is indeed hard except to those who bring a lowly spirit.
46 Who bear in mind the certainty that they are to meet their Lord and
that they are to return to Him.
The Prophet (saws) said, "The head of
the matter is Islam, its pillar is the prayer, and the top of its hump is Jihad
in the Way of Allah."
Jabir reports that the Prophet (saws) said,
"Between a person and disbelief is discarding prayer."
Related by Ahmad, Muslim, Abu Dawud,
at-Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah.
Abdullah ibn 'Amr ibn al-'Aas reported that
the Prophet (saws) one day mentioned the prayer and said, "Whoever guards
and observes his prayer, they (his prayers) will be a light and a proof and a
savior for him on the Day of Resurrection. Whoever does not guard and obvserve
them, they will not be a light or a proof or a savior for him. On the Day of
Resurrection, he will be with Qarun, Fir'aun, Haman and Ubayy ibn Khalf."
Related by Ahmad, at-Tabarani and Ibn Hibban.
A man came to the Prophet (saws) and said “ O
Prophet of Allah (saws), what is the
act or deed most loved by Allah?”
The Prophet (saws) replied: “To pray ones prayers on time.”
The man asked further: “What (deed or act most loved by Allah)
next?”
The Prophet (saws) replied: “Obedience to ones parents.”
The man asked further: “What (deed or act most loved by Allah)
next?”
The Prophet (saws) replied: “Jihaad in the
Way of Allah.”

Intentionally missing an obligatory prayer beyond its
appointed time is not even given as an option in the deen of Islam! If one accidentally or unintentionally misses
one’s prayer through sleep or forgetfulness, one should pray it as soon as one
wakes up or remembers it.
One should strive as hard as one can to make intention to
offer one’s obligatory prayers on their appointed times, and if Allah forbid,
one misses a prayer, then the absolute least one can do is expiate and atone
for that lapse by praying it ‘qada’ in the sincere fear and hope that the Lord Most
High will accept it.
Whoever sleeps through or has forgotten to
pray a certain prayer should pray it when he wakes up or remembers the prayer. Abu Qatadah related that sleeping through the
prayer time was mentioned to the Prophet (saws) and he said, "There is no
negligence in sleep, but negligence occurs while one is awake. If one of you
forgets a prayer, or sleeps through its time, then he should pray it when he
remembers it."
Related by an-Nasa'i and at-Tirmidhi.
Anas related that the Prophet (saws) said,
"Whoever forgets a prayer should pray it when he remembers it, and
there is no expiation for it save that."
Related by al-Bukhari and Muslim.
The offering of the five obligatory prayers at its
appointed times is such a duty unto the Lord Creator that a believer is not
permitted to miss them even in a life and death situation like war, or severe
illness, etc.
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 2 Surah Baqarah
verse 238:
238 Guard strictly your prayers, especially
the middle (Asr) prayer and stand before Allah in a devout (frame of mind).
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 107 Surah
Al-Maun verses 4-5:
4 So woe to the worshippers
5 Who are neglectful of their prayers
To intentionally miss an obligatory prayer or delay it
beyond its appointed time would indeed constitute severe negligence and a grave
sin in the Sight of Allah Subhanah.
Your Question:……I heard from one of mufti sahib that can offer shortly
means starting from surah fateh and just can say once suhana rabbi yalaala and
similarly no need to read ataheyaat just drood etc.
There is absolutely nothing in the authentic and
established Sunnah which even resembles the ruling given by the ‘mufti
sahib’! If one (Allah forbid) were to
miss one’s obligatory prayer on time, the one and only expiation or atonement
for that missed prayer is to pray it as soon as one remembers it!!
Your Question: I am Hanafi (Duyu band) would like to know about best
tafseer of holy Quran with Urdu translations.
Although there are several good ‘tafseers’ of the Glorious
Quran in the Urdu language available today, in our humble opinion the best
amongst them is: ‘Tafeemul-Quran’ by Syed Abul Aala Maududi published by
Islamic Publications (Pvt) Ltd., 13-E Shah Alam Market, Lahore, Pakistan.
Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to
Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me alone. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only
Source of Strength.
