The Relationship Between the Prayer of Ishraq and the Prayer of Duha

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The listener Samira says: Since last Hajj, I have been praying the two rak'ahs of Ishraq, or Shuruq as the women used to do, and after eleven o'clock I pray the eight rak'ahs of Duha. Is Ishraq the same as Duha?

Answer:
Yes, Ishraq is part of Duha; it is the beginning of the time for the Duha prayer. Once the sun has risen the height of a spear after its appearance, the time for the Duha prayer begins and continues until the sun reaches its zenith at midday. All of this is the time for the Duha prayer. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
