The ruling on delaying the prayer beyond its time for women at home
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on delaying the prayer beyond its time, especially for women at home, and making that a habit, justifying it by saying that the prayer has a time of beginning, a time of ending, a time of excellence, and a time of performance? What is the ruling on this delay?
Answer:
The one for whom congregational prayer is obligatory must pray with the congregation. As for the one for whom it is not obligatory, such as women or the sick, it is better to hasten to pray at the beginning of the time. If he delays it to the middle of the time, there is no harm, or to the end of the time, there is no harm. But delaying it beyond the time is not permissible; it is not permissible to take it out of its time.
