Question:
A questioner asks: When does the time for the eclipse prayer begin? May Allah bless you.
Answer:
The time for the eclipse prayer begins when the eclipse is seen. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: So the time for the eclipse prayer is from the beginning of the eclipse to its end. Those who pray before the eclipse begins are praying outside the time of the prayer, so their prayer is not valid. Yes.
