If One Initially Doubts But Later the Presumption Is Inclined to One Side
Issue No. 1080 - If initially the presumption of a person is inclined to one side, and later both sides [of the doubt] become equal bearing the situation of doubt, he should act according to the rules of doubt. On the contrary, if initially the situation of doubt existed but later was inclined to one side, he should act according to his presumption. However, if the doubt is among invalidator doubts and if it persisted at first, one should start the prayer afresh even though it may have changed into a presumption of the other side.
