Prayer is a great pillar of Islam. All missed prayers must be made up in order, according to the Maliki and Hanbali schools (unless there is an excuse), and it is recommended by the Shafi'i school. A Muslim makes up all missed prayers in order, with caution regarding the number. If one does not know which prayer was missed, they should make up all five daily prayers to ensure certainty of being absolved of responsibility. This is done by performing five prayers to achieve certainty of being absolved of responsibility. A Muslim makes up prayers according to their daily capacity without causing harm.
