Delaying the 'Isha' prayer after the adhan
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Salih, one of the sisters from Yemen, who used the code name "Daughter of Yemen," has a number of questions. We will present those that time allows. She asks: Is it permissible to delay the 'Isha' prayer by one hour or one and a third hours after the adhan?
Answer:
The one who is bound to pray in congregation prays with the congregation and does not delay behind them. As for the one for whom congregation is not obligatory, such as the sick and women, it is better for him to hasten to pray, but it is permissible for him to delay it until the end of its time, or the middle of it, or the beginning of it. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
