Ruling on delaying the Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers until after midnight on the day of departure from 'Arafah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
His Eminence the Shaykh: On the day of departure from 'Arafah to Muzdalifah, some people arrive very late, perhaps just before midnight, and they pray the Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers.So is the Maghrib prayer here in its proper time, meaning: Has the time for the 'Isha' prayer become the time for the Maghrib prayer?
Yes.
Those who come from 'Arafah to Muzdalifah and do not arrive at Muzdalifah until late combine the prayers by delaying them. It is established in the authentic collections that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) stopped on the way to Muzdalifah, urinated, and performed ablution.And Usamah ibn Zayd was with him, so he said: O Messenger of Allah: the prayer.He said: The prayer is before you. Then he remained until he reached Muzdalifah and prayed the Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers by delaying them. However, if one fears that the night will be half over before he reaches Muzdalifah, then in this case he must pray, and it is not permissible to delay the 'Isha' or Maghrib prayer until after midnight.
