The ruling on praying four rak'ahs before 'Asr after its time has entered
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : If a person comes to pray 'Asr after this 'Asr time has passed, or an hour or more has passed, is it known that he desired to pray four rak'ahs before 'Asr? Is he allowed to pray these four rak'ahs, for example, as long as he has not prayed the Qabur, or not? Yes, he is allowed to do so, unless he fears that the preferred time for 'Asr will end. Yes.
The Shaykh : Yes. The ruling is that he should complete it quickly. Yes, because he has entered a time in which it is permitted.
The questioner : Older.
The Shaykh : Why? What Abu Dawud narrated. The answer to it is that it contradicts the hadiths that are stronger and more authentic than it, which prohibit prayer after 'Asr absolutely. Yes, this addition is a contradiction. Yes, the prohibition begins after the prayer of 'Asr, even if it is combined with Zuhr by advancing it.
The questioner : That when Umm Salama sent the maidservant to ask the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) about it in the moment of the hadith, and he informed her that he was occupied with them in the matter of the delegation of 'Abd al-Qays, the maidservant said: We will see if he makes them up?
The Shaykh : So we give them if you missed them.
The questioner : Upon them, yes, yes, and that the maidservant said no.
The Shaykh : Yes. This is correct; they mentioned that it is among the characteristics of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) that he makes up the rawatib in the time of prohibition. They used this which I mentioned as evidence, but there is discussion regarding this hadith.
The questioner : And much of the prayer of the Qa'idah, does it indicate the permissibility of making up voluntary prayer even without an excuse?
The Shaykh : Yes, is the voluntary prayer much? It is making up the nawafil? Yes.
The questioner : Hello.
The Shaykh : Which the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) made up, and when he prayed Zuhr, the delegation of 'Abd al-Qays came to him and he was occupied with them and did not pray, so he prayed them after 'Asr, then he continued. No, no, no, it is not apparent; the apparent is that he continued to make up the two, even though he prays after. Yes, it becomes an addition; he prays the 'Asr, and the Zuhr after it.
The Shaykh : Yes. The ruling is that he should complete it quickly. Yes, because he has entered a time in which it is permitted.
