The ruling on delaying the 'Asr prayer until after Maghrib
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: A man traveled and arrived in the city with the Maghrib prayer. He performed the prayer, then prayed the 'Asr prayer shortened to two rak'ahs. Is his action valid?
Answer:
Why did he delay the 'Asr prayer until after Maghrib? This is not permissible for him. It is obligatory that he pray 'Asr in its time, before the sun sets. However, since he delayed it out of ignorance and prayed it after Maghrib, this falls under the category of making up a missed prayer, and he is excused for his ignorance. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
