Making up prayers with dual intentions

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Qibla.com

Answered by SunniPath Answer Service Team

I have fard prayers to make up. If I pray them instead of the sunnah ghair muakkada or nafl prayers, can I make dual intention for making up a fard and for the current sunnah/nafl? For example, would making up an asr before a current asr yield the reward for both the fard made up and the four sunnah before the current asr? or if i pray tahajjud but instead of the eight rakahs of tahajjud, i make up fard prayers, will i get the reward for the tahajjad and the made up fard prayer?

Answer:
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

It is permitted to combine intentions between a fard and nafil (but not with confirmed sunnas)

it is permitted to combine intentions between incumbent and non-incumbent prayers. One cannot combine intentions between to incumbent prayers,
