I prayed Friday prayers where there are more than one Friday prayers within one Farsakh because I did not know about the ruling that there has to be minimum distance. Do I need to perform Qada Zuhr for those Friday prayers?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

If you performed Friday Prayer with the valid Friday Prayer that started their Takbiratul Ehraam before other Friday prayers in the radius of one Farrakhan,  then your prayer is valid. If you started Takbiratul Ehraam after any other valid Friday Prayer then you need to perform Dhuhr or it's Qadha if it's time has gone.

What is the ruling regarding making up missed fasts and missed prayers due to unsure mental state at the time?

If you are sure that you did miss an obligatory Prayer or an obligatory fasting, then you should make it up and Qadha. If you are not sure that you missed any obligatory Prayer or fasting, then it is not obligatory on you to keep Qadha.

If someone discovers years later that they unknowingly broke their fast during Ramadan, will they need to make up for the missed fasts and also pay the Kaffara?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

1. Did he break his fast by doing an act which he thought it permissible during fasting then discovered later it invalidates fasting?

2. Was his ignorance avoidable or not avoidable?
3. Was he taught that that act is allowed during fasting then discovered that he was misinformed?

4. What is the invalidating act which he did unknowingly?

The answer to your question depends on these matters.
