The Ruling on Praying Two Rak'ahs Before the 'Isha' Prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Shaykh. A woman has been praying two rak'ahs before the 'Isha' prayer for a long time. Some of her sons objected to her and said, "Mother, this is not permissible." She replied to them, "This is a prayer, and I have not done anything forbidden."
The Shaykh:
Yes, that is correct. What she did is prescribed, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Between every two adhan calls is a prayer." The meaning of the two adhan calls is that one prays after the adhan until the iqamah is called.
The questioner:
Our Shaykh, is there a hadith to the effect that prayer is the best place to settle?
The Shaykh:
Yes, yes, and prayer is the best of settled matters.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
The questioner:
In another hadith, "Be upright and do not be equal"Sunan Ibn Majah 277Hasan (Darussalam)
The Shaykh:
The prayer. Yes.
