To offer `Isha'' Prayer behind

Q 8: If a person forgets to perform the Fajr (Dawn) Prayer for example, (Part No. 7; Page No. 403) and does not remember except after the Zhuhr (Noon) Prayer commences or forgets the Zhuhr Prayer and does not remember except after the time of `Asr (Afternoon) Prayer. Should he offer Salah with the Imam with the intention of making up for the missed obligatory Salah or the intention of the current Salah and then make up for the missed Salah?


A: He should offer the Salah which he forgot behind the Imam. There is no harm if there is a difference between his intention and the intention of the Imam according to the most preponderant view of scholars.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
