Struggling with Anxiety Over Missed Prayers and Fasts

Assalamu alaikum, I’m really anxious right now. I came across a video that said if you have years of missed prayers, your Hajj, Umrah, and even repentance might not be accepted. Is this true in the Hanafi or Shafi’i schools? Are there other opinions? I’ve been freaking out about my qadha salah and fasts, and I don’t know how to handle this stress. Any advice would help, jazakum Allah khair.

Same struggle here. I'm Hanafi, and my teacher said repentance and making up prayers is enough. But the stress is real. Let's make dua for each other.

Virtual hug. The fact you're worried shows iman. Start with one missed prayer after each current one. Slow and steady. May Allah ease your anxiety.

Sis, take a deep breath. I asked a Shafi'i sheikh, and he said missed prayers must be made up but don't nullify Hajj. Focus on being better now, not the past. Make a plan and stick to it.

I cried over this too once. But then I learned that sincere tawbah wipes out the sin, even if you can't make up every prayer. Still, try your best 🌸

I feel you, been there. I'm Hanafi, and our scholars say you just need to make up the prayers with sincere intention. Your Hajj is still valid inshaAllah. Don't let a random video shake you.
