Regarding the time of the Fajr prayer.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner: He means, is it about a third of an hour, or twenty-five minutes, for the appearance of the dawn?
The Shaykh: Twenty-five minutes.
The questioner: Twenty-five. Okay, since our area is lower, can we rely on your timings?
The Shaykh: No.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh: You look at the mountain in front of you.
The questioner: It is not obligatory.
The Shaykh: Who are the brothers who told him that it is not obligatory? Are they scholars?
The questioner: He thinks they have knowledge, so he is coming to ask.
The Shaykh: He does not speak Arabic.
The questioner: He does not know Arabic, so he needs this tape to take it there and have it translated so everyone can hear it. So we hope for more detail.
The Shaykh: We cannot do that while we are standing here. Instead, call me tonight, for example, in half an hour, and turn on your recording and record it.
The questioner: Good, if Allah wills. May Allah bless you.
The Shaykh: Twenty-five minutes.
