If you miss a prayer (Qada), you should make it up as soon as possible. Here’s how to proceed:

• Perform the missed prayer in the same manner as you would have at its prescribed time
• Make the intention to make up the specific prayer you missed
• It is preferable to make up missed prayers in chronological order
• If you missed multiple prayers, make them up as soon as possible

Note that if you missed a prayer unintentionally (e.g., due to sleep or forgetfulness), there is no sin, but you must still make it up.

Prayer times are calculated based on the position of the sun and vary depending on geographical location and season. Several calculation methods exist:

• Union of Islamic Organizations of France (UOIF) method
• Muslim World League (MWL) method
• Islamic University of Karachi method
• Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) method
• Egyptian General Authority of Survey method

Our site uses the UOIF method for France by default.
