Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the first hour? He said: It is the known hour, when I do not know.
Answer:
We do not know the known hour now. They say it is a part of the time. The scholars differed regarding the first hour; some said it is after the Fajr prayer, and some said it is after the sun rises. The best, and Allah knows best, is that it is after the sun rises.
