Walid b. ʿAyzar said that he heard Abu ʿAmr Shaybani saying, while pointing towards the house of ʿAbd Allah (ra) at the same time, “The owner of this house told me that he asked the Messenger of Allah (saw), ‘Which of the deeds are liked by Allah?” He said, ‘Ritual prayer performed at its proper time.’ I asked, again, ‘What is next?’ He replied, ‘Then kindness to the parents.’ I said, ‘What then?’ He replied, ‘Then jihād in the cause of Allah.’…” (Muslim, al-Iman, 139; al-Bukhari, al-Adab, 1)
According to Anas (b. Malik) (ra), the Prophet (saw) said, “If anyone forgets to perform a ritual prayer he should perform it when he remembers. There is no expiation except to perform the same…” (al-Bukhari, Mawaqit al-salat, 37; Muslim, al-Masajid, 314)
According to Abu Qatada al-Ansari, the horseman of the Messenger of Allah (saw) said the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, “Those who performed the two rakʿas (of the Sunna part) at the fajr ritual prayer continuously should perform those two rakʿas (when the obligatory part of the fajr ritual prayer could not be performed on time).” (Abu Da’ud, al-Salat, 11)
Abu Qatada (ra) reported the following: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) gave us a sermon and said, ‘… Know that there is no fault (in missing the ritual prayer) because of sleep. The true fault is the behavior of the one who postpones the performance of the ritual prayer (intentionally) till the time of another ritual prayer comes. Thus, he who missed (the performance of the ritual prayer) because of sleep let him perform his ritual prayer when he gets up! Let him perform it on the next day at its prescribed time!’” (Muslim, al-Masajid, 311)
