In the name of Allah, the Most-Merciful, the All-Compassionate "May the Peace and Blessings of Allah be Upon You" Praise be to Allaah, we seek His help and His forgiveness. We seek refuge with Allaah from the evil of our own souls and from our bad deeds. Whomsoever Allaah guides will never be led astray, and whomsoever Allaah leaves astray, no one can guide. I bear witness that there is no god but Allaah, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. ________________________________ Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam 'ala Rasulillah As-Salaam Alaikum Wa-Rahmatullahi Wa-Barakatuhu In doubt concerning the number of rakaat that have been prayed ?
What should one do if one finds oneself unsure in the middle of the prayer how many rakaat one has prayed? Answer: If a person falls into doubt as to whether he prayed, e.g., three of four rakaat, he should consider the most likely case. However, if he cannot put more weight to one of the two, he should assume what he is certain of and that is lesser amount, and make the prostrations of forgetfulness (sujood ul-sahw). The evidence is the hadith narrated by Abu Saeed Al-Khudri (may Allah be please with him), who said: The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: If one of you has doubts during his prayer and he does not recall how many rakat he has prayed, whether three or four, then he can put an end to his doubt by praying according to what he was certain of (the lesser amount) and then making two sujood before the salaam. If it turns out that he had prayed five rakaat, the two sujood would make it even. Whereas if he ended up completing his four rakaat , they would be in defiance of the Satan.
