Hadith record

4. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id and Muhammad ibn Khalid all from al- Qasim ibn ‘Urwah from ‘Ubayd ibn Zurarah from his father who has said the following: “Abu Ja’far (a.s.), has sad, ’You may miss a Salah (prayer) and remember it in another time. If you think you can perform Qada’ (compensatory prayer) for the one missed when there is still enough time left to perform the present Salah (prayer), begin to do so. Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, says, “Perform Salah (prayer) to remember (speak of) Me” but if you know that with performing Qada’ (compensatory prayer) for what you have missed, the time for the present one will end, then begin with the present Salah (prayer). Thereafter perform Qada’ (compensatory prayer) for the one missed in the past.’”
