The intended meaning of the hours in the virtue of hastening to the Friday prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, is the hour mentioned in the virtue of hastening the same duration as the hour we use in this era?
The Shaykh:
No. The hour that is sixty minutes. We say that what is meant by it is a portion of time, a portion of time. So the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) divided the time before the Friday prayer into five parts, starting from after the Fajr prayer, beginning from after the Fajr prayer until the imam enters, and this time is divided into five parts. Yes.
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, when does the first hour begin? Does it start from the rising of the sun?
The Shaykh:
It is correct that it is from the appearance of the dawn, from the beginning of the day, yes.
