Summary
This practice has no basis and is a pure fabrication. The narration relied upon is not found in any reliable hadith work and is judged to be forged. According to Shafi'i scholars, as cited from Fath al-Mu'in, performing such prayers in the belief that they replace missed prayers is forbidden.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Solat empat rakaat dengan satu kali tasyahud pada hari Jumaat terakhir di bulan Ramadan dengan harapan dapat menggantikan solat yang ditinggalkan selama 400 tahun adalah suatu amalan yang tiada asal dan hanya rekaan semata-mata.
