Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: If the moon is eclipsed during the day, before Maghrib or after Fajr, is the eclipse prayer performed?
Answer:
The majority hold that it is not performed, because the benefit of them has passed. When Fajr breaks, the benefit of the moon has passed. When the day comes, if the sun sets while eclipsed, it is not performed, because it has disappeared. This is the benefit of them. Yes.
