Delaying the prayer due to work

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Shaykh, some people delay the Zuhr and 'Asr prayers on the excuse that they are at work. What is the ruling on that?

Answer:
It is better and more preferable to pray the prayer at the beginning of its time. If there is a need to delay it from the beginning of its time, there is no harm in that, as long as it is within the time. Also, if there is a mosque and a congregational prayer nearby, it is obligatory for them to pray with the Muslims, and they should not pray alone and say, "We will pray whenever we want or when we finish our work." The congregational prayer is obligatory except for an excuse. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good,
