Assalamu Alaikum
Got information with regard to Qadha Namaz from Ulama. One said that in every occasion the Niyyath of the first Namaz should be kept. Another Alim said that it is not correct to keep the Niyyat of the first Namaz whenever the Qadha Namaz is performed, instead, to keep Niyyath that, performing the Qadha Namaz according to the order of Qadha?
Please inform the correct answer.

Yes, it is correct to have, while performing each missed Farz Salat, for ex; the Niyyat of the first missed Zuhar Salat. Likewise may have the Niyyath of the last missed Salat too. However this is possible when missed Salat are excessive in number or unable to remember the correct order of Salat. Otherwise the order of the Salat and the Niyyat accordingly is necessary.
Alah knows best.
