Performing Maghrib Salaah if one did not perform Zuhr and Asr Salaah

Q: If a person prays Fajr, and misses the Dhuhr and Asr prayer, can he directly performs the Maghrib prayer (without making up this Dhuhr and this Asr) if he has missed more than five (other) prayers a very long time ago in the past?

A: Yes, it is permissible for him to perform his Maghrib Salaah before performing the qadha of Zuhr and Asr.
