Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks about the Duha prayer: Shaykh Salih, how many rak'ahs does it have, and what is its time?

Answer:
The Duha prayer is a confirmed sunnah. Its time is from the rising of the sun after it has come up until it reaches the middle of the sky, a little before the zenith. All of this is the time for the Duha prayer, and the later it is, the better. As for the number of rak'ahs, the minimum is two, and the maximum is eight rak'ahs with four taslims. Yes. May Allah reward you with good.
