Answer:
The time when the sun is at its zenith in the middle of the sky, this is not permissible. However, if they come before that, this is the Duha time, and there is no harm. They are advancing by ten minutes, so they came in the last part of the Duha, and there is no harm. What is forbidden is when the sun rises above the heads; that is what is forbidden.
