Determining the time of zawal

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Some of the brothers say that in the morning of a believer, when the sun comes, there is a medicine for it.

Answer:
This is not known except by the people of calculation. The time of zawal is when the sun is in the middle of the sky, and a shadow remains that they call the shadow of zawal. Especially when the sun leans toward the south or leans toward the north—toward the south in the winter or toward the north in the summer—there is a shadow that distinguishes the sun from the heads to the right or to the left. This is what they call the time of zawal, and it is not known except by the people of calculation who estimate it.
