Making qadha for missed Salaahs

Q: Does qadha namaaz exist? Some people say the the prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) has not said anything like replacing a missing prayer. If it exists, when does maghrib namaaz become qadha?

A: All the four imaams are in agreement that the namaaz that has been missed should be repeated. Laylatut-Ta`rees and Ghazwah Khandaq are two proofs for the same.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
