The Time of the Duha Prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
His Eminence the Shaykh: When is the last time for the Dhuha prayer, and what is the best time to perform it?
The first time for the Dhuha prayer is when the sun has risen the height of a spear, which is approximately fifteen minutes after sunrise. Its time ends before the sun reaches its zenith,Meaning: when the time of prohibition begins, which is approximately ten minutes before the sun reaches its zenith.
This prayer is among the prayers that should be performed at the end of its time;For the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: (the prayer of the penitents when the young camels are scorched by the heat) meaning: when the heat of the sun increases, but before the sun reaches its zenith by about fifteen minutes. This is the best time. If this time is not convenient for a person because he is busy with work, study, or trade, he should pray it when the sun has risen the height of a spear;Meaning: approximately fifteen minutes after sunrise.
