Practice & how-to

How do I make up missed prayers?

To make up missed prayers, work out roughly how many you owe, add a small fixed number of qada prayers alongside each day's prayers, and let the counter in Pray Assist come down as you pray them.
  1. Count what you oweEstimate honestly rather than exactly. Open the missed prayer counter and enter a starting number per prayer; you can adjust it later.
  2. Set a daily amountPick something you will keep, such as one qada of each prayer a day. A small number kept for a year beats a large one kept for a week.
  3. Pray them alongside the dayPray a qada prayer after its matching daily prayer, so the habit attaches to something you already do.
  4. Mark it and watch it fallTap the counter each time. Seeing the number go down is the thing that keeps people going when the total looks impossible.
