Period Beginning at Dhuhr Time Does it(Dhuhr) Need to be Made Up?


Answered by Maariyah Lateef
Question:
A woman’s period begins during the time of the dhuhr prayer but she has not prayed dhuhr yet. Does she have to make up this prayer when she is able?
Answer:
Thank you for your question.
You are correct in your most recent understanding that one’s state at the end of the prayer time is what is most important and determines one’s status regarding whether and how to make up that prayer. [Ibn Abidin, Radd al-Muhtar]
Therefore, if your period begins during the time of the dhuhr prayer, but you have not prayed dhuhr yet, you do not need to make up dhuhr after your period ends. This is regardless of whether you had enough time to pray dhuhr before your period began or not.
