What is the legal consequence if a worshipper forgetfully omits a necessary act (Wajib) during prayer?
The Necessary Acts of Prayer (واجبات الصلاة) Part 1: Recitation
- The prayer is completely invalidated and must be repeated immediately.
- The omission is automatically excused and no action is required.
- The prayer can be rectified by performing the prostrations of forgetfulness (Sujud al-Sahw) at the end.
- The worshipper must restart the ablution.
