The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The mu'adhdhin called the Fajr prayer according to the Umm al-Qura calendar, and the mosque is on the road. He gave the iqamah five minutes later. I saw that he had been very early, so I repeated the prayer afterwards. Is my action correct?

The Shaykh:
No, your action is not correct. If the mu'adhdhin called the prayer at the appearance of the dawn, and you prayed after the appearance of the dawn, your prayer is valid. Yes.

The presenter:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.

The Shaykh:
Note that the calendar is not uniform; the time difference must be taken into account. The time of a country is specific to its surroundings. But if the distances are far apart, there is a time difference that must be observed. Riyadh has a time, al-Qasim has a time, and the south has a time. This must be observed. Yes.
