Various Masaail on Qadha Salaah

Qadha Salaah

Q: I have missed many namaaz in the past (as per my calculation 17-18 years namaaz). Now for the last one year I am regular in it. My question is regarding my qaza namaaz. I read that I have to perform my qaza farz namaz too. I read a short procedure of performing namaz too, in which I have to recite single time Subhana Rabial Azeem and Subhana Rabial Aalla only once, in Attahiyat short Darood shareef and in 3rd or 4th rakat Subhana Allah 3 times instead of Surah Fatiha, and Rabigfirlli 3 times instead of dua Kanoot. Is it valid? Do I miss my sunnatul Mukada and pray my qaza namaz and complete it as early as possible and then start praying my whole namaz after completing my all qaza namaz?

Missing a waajib in qadha Salaah

Q: I know that if you miss a waajib in prayer, you must perform sajdah-e-sahw, and if you fail to do so, you should repeat the prayer, so long as its time remains. However, once the time for the prayer is over, the prayer is not to be repeated. What is the status of missing a waajib act in a qada prayer? If you miss a waajib in a qada prayer, and you failed to perform sajdah-e-sahw (or you performed sajdah-e-sahw incorrectly, i.e. you made only one sajdah), do you then have to repeat that qada prayer? Is it merely recommended to repeat that qada prayer or is it waajib to repeat that qada prayer?
