Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a question in which the questioner asks: Is there a book that discusses the times when prayer is prohibited?
Answer:
Yes, all the books of hadith and all the books of fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) have explained the times when prayer is prohibited. That is, voluntary prayer after the dawn (Fajr) has appeared until the sun rises; this is the first. After the sun rises until it has risen the height of a spear; this is the second. When it is in the middle of the sky, directly overhead, until it declines; this is the third. After the 'Asr prayer until the sun turns yellow; this is the fourth.
The fifth is after the sun approaches sunset until it sets. These are five times when voluntary prayer is prohibited. As for the obligatory prayer, it is prayed and not left at any time. If one forgot a prayer or slept through it, he should pray it when he remembers it, meaning at any time. There is no expiation for it. Except for that, the two rak'ahs of tawaf (circumambulation of the Ka'bah): if you performed tawaf during these times, pray the two rak'ahs following the tawaf at any time, because they are among the prayers with a specific cause.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
