Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the sister Umm Muram asks: Is it permissible for a woman to delay the 'Isha' prayer until midnight if she is occupied with guests?
Answer:
If she does not forget it and does not feel lazy about it, yes, there is no harm in delaying it until midnight, though delaying it until the first third of the night is more cautious, and she should pray it then. However, if she fears that she will forget it or become distracted from it, she should hasten to pray it. Yes.
