Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu

Do we have to pray salah in order. For example for juhar salah; 4 Sunnah, 4 Fard, 2 sunnah, 2 nafil. Can we pray 4 sunnah at the end or can we pray 4 Fard at the end. Same question apply for all 5 salah.

Jazakallah

Jazak'Allah for your question and my apologies for the delay in the reply. I hope your attention is not diverted from asking any more questions.


All salaah must be read in order. If there are sunnahs before the fard salaah, then care must be taken, that these sunnahs are prayed before the fard salaah. If however, one misses the sunnahs, before the fard salaah, then if they are the 'mu'akkidah', then they must be prayed after the fard salaah. The order for missing the 'mu'akkidah sunnahs', in salaah, are as follows:


Where a person misses, the two sunnah of Fajar salaah, then he must perform them after the fard salaah, but not at the time of zawal, but after the time of zawal as 'mu'akkidah' sunnahs carry a great importance.


Where a person misses the four sunnah-e-mu'akkidah for Zuhr salaah, then he must pray these last. i.e. He must pray the fard, then two sunnah, then two nafil, then he must pray the four sunnah-e-mu'akkidah.


Where a person misses the four sunnah of 'Asr prayer, then it is not obligatory or necessary to perform them after, as no salaah may be prayed after 'Asr salaah, not even fard salaah. They are regarded as not necessary as the sunnah-e-mu'akkidah. They are known as the 'ghayr mu'akkidah'.


The two sunnah of Maghrib prayer will be prayed normally, after the fard, as for 'Isha' the four sunnah at the beginning are 'ghayr mu'akkidah', again the same rule applies to these, as does for the four sunnah of 'Asr. However, the two sunnahs after the fard salaah, are sunnah-e-mu'akkidah, and these should be prayed after the fard salah. There is no need to pray the 'ghayr mu'akkidah', but to pray the nafil salaah will compensate for what has been missed.


May Allah the Almighty give us all the tawfiq, to stay firm upon our five times salaah, and may He make us perform as much salaah as possible. May He make us punctual in our salaah, and may He accept our order of salaah, that we pray in. (Amin)
