Prohibition of sleeping after the 'Asr prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Abu Ahmad sent the program a set of questions, saying: Are there any hadiths regarding the prohibition of sleeping after the 'Asr prayer? And if it is a person's habit to sleep, he prays 'Asr and then sleeps until just before the Maghrib adhan.
Answer:
I am not aware of any prohibition in this, but from a health perspective, they say that sleeping after 'Asr is not suitable, and likewise, sleeping after Fajr is not suitable from a health standpoint. However, if one needs to do so, if one needs to sleep after Fajr because he stayed up at night, or needs to sleep after 'Asr because he was at work or busy and could not take a nap during the midday time, then there is no harm in sleeping after 'Asr. Yes.
