Whoever has missed prayers must make them up immediately, at any time, and specify the prayer being made up, not the day. The intended order among missed prayers is to make them up one after another. The majority of scholars believe that ordering is not necessary for numerous missed prayers. As for prayers performed in ignorance of the rulings of purification and prayer, one is not required to repeat them, because doubt after finishing an act of worship has no effect.
