تُغْنِي suffices
'suffices / dispenses [with],' feminine to agree with 'prayer,' and negated. It takes 'from' (next) for what it would excuse. So: a prayer that does not make a later make-up unnecessary.

تُغْنِي suffice
A present-tense verb in its feminine-singular form, agreeing with the non-human plural subject 'intentions' (which Arabic counts as one feminine unit). The subject is carried by that agreement rather than repeated, and with the 'la' before it the sense is 'they do not suffice'.
