How do we reconcile praying after the dawn has risen with the presence of twilight?

The questioner : How do we reconcile this command, which is praying after the dawn has risen, with the twilight that precedes it?

The Shaykh : It seems to me that you find a contradiction.
The student : ... .

The Shaykh : I have not yet forgotten.
The student : Do you know that there is a problem?

The Shaykh : But I am afraid this is of that type, meaning he is speaking about someone else.
The student : No...

The Shaykh : So that we do not wrong people, correct? Meaning, you or the one from whom you took it.

The questioner : No, the one from whom you took it.

The Shaykh : Yes, you or the one from whom you took it thinks that twilight contradicts praying after the light appears in the east. There is no contradiction, because when the light appears in the east, there is still twilight there. Then, twilight is relative; twilight is before twilight, and twilight is after twilight, and so on. Then, something came to my mind when we discussed the topic: what do the scholars say? "What is adjacent to a thing..."
The student : "...takes its ruling."

The Shaykh : "...takes its ruling." Yes.
The student: Yes.

The Shaykh : So this twilight, considering that it is after the adhan of the true dawn, considering that it is adjacent to the twilight that I called, by way of emphasis, "the twilight of twilight," is called twilight by virtue of adjacency. Therefore, the Muslim who wants to understand the religion of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) always tries to reconcile the texts and does not strike one text with another. And as I said earlier in answer to the brother, the Muslims agreed that the saying of Allah (the Exalted): is a settled and established ruling until the Day of Resurrection, clear and not abrogated; they all agreed on this. Then they agreed that the time of dawn is only as He said (the Exalted): and so on. So this is what should remain in the mind of this or that person: how is this, when we pray in twilight?The questioner : The answer, as you now know, is that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), who used to pray in twilight, is the one to whom these two verses were revealed. So either you understand twilight in a relative sense, or by virtue of adjacency as we said, increasing in darkness and being before the dawn rises. And when the dawn has not risen, it is said: pray in twilight, meaning relatively. This is the answer, if Allah wills.
The student : May Allah reward you. About the topic?
Another student: Yes, indeed.
Another student: Please.

The questioner : May Allah preserve you.

The Shaykh: Go ahead.

The questioner : Does this not also support the meaning of twilight in the language, which is the mixing of the end of the night with the beginning of the day? This supports your statement.

The Shaykh : This is the meaning, may Allah bless you. It is so.
The student : And the truth of the matter in describing the prayer of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is that he ; meaning: he hastened to pray at the beginning of its time. This is an allusion to early prayer. And twilight, as I mentioned, is the mixing of the light of day with the last darkness of the night. So there is no doubt that when the dawn rises, one who looks at the horizon sees indeed the darkness that mixes with the first appearance of day. This is very clear, meaning.

The questioner: Yes.
