Answered by SunniPath Answer Service Team
Having recently begun to follow the shafii madhab I wanted to know whether I have to repeat all my prior salats. Previously I did not follow any of the four schools in this matter, but rather the ”ijtihad” of al-Albani and therefore I want to know if these salats were valid due to ignorance or if they have to be repeated. If I have to repeat them what would be the best way to go about doing this?
