Answered by Ustadh Sufyan Qufi
Question
In the book “Ascent to Felicity” (Maraqi al-Falah), the author mentions that: “it is mandatory (wajib) to repeat a prayer in which one intentionally did an act that is prohibitively disliked (makruh tahriman).” [Ibn Abidin, Radd al-Muhtar, 1/307].
Would I be sinful not to repeat a prayer in which a prohibitively disliked action has been committed?
Answer
In the name of Allah, Most Compassionate, Most Merciful,
I pray this finds you in the best of states.
Yes, it would be sinful not to repeat a prayer in which a prohibitively disliked action has been committed within this prayer’s time.
The fatwa position of most of the later scholars is that if one performed a prayer with something prohibitively disliked (makruh tahriman), it is
(1) necessary (wajib) to repeat within the time; and
(2) not necessary to repeat after the time—but, instead, it is recommended to repeat.
[Haskafi, al-Durr al-Mukhtar; Tahtawi/Shurunbulali, Hashiyat ala Maraqi al-Falah]
