Times of Prohibition and the Greeting of the Mosque

Question:
The greeting of the mosque, O Shaykh: Is it prayed at all times? What are the prohibited times? And why are they called prohibited times?

Answer:
There are five prohibited times: from the dawn of Fajr until the sun rises, from the rising of the sun until it has risen the height of a spear, when it is standing in the middle of the sky until it declines, from after the 'Asr prayer until it approaches sunset, and the fifth is when it approaches sunset until it sets. In detail, these are the times. In summary, they are three: from the dawn of Fajr until the sun has risen the height of a spear, when the sun is standing in the middle of the sky above the heads until it declines, and from the 'Asr prayer until sunset. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited prayer in these times.
As for the greeting of the mosque, some scholars have said that it is one of the prayers with a cause, so it is performed when its cause is present, which is the intention to sit in the mosque at any time. In their view, it is one of the prayers with a cause, so it is performed when its cause is present, which is the intention to sit in the mosque at any time. The saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is general for all times. Yes.
