Question: Accidentally switching intentions midway through prayer
If I make the intention before the prayer that I’m praying Maghreb but halfway through the prayer I accidentally think that I’m prayer asr but realise I’m not straight after and continue praying Maghreb, is my prayer valid?

Delayed intentions are not considered. Therefore, your Asr intention is not considered and your Maghrib is valid.
