May Allah reward you and benefit you with your knowledge. The sender, A.A.A., from the Arab Republic of Egypt, says: When the sun rises, our Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded us not to pray until it has risen the length of a spear. How do we determine the length of the spear?

From the horizon, from the horizon, the horizon of the rising point.
