When is the rawatib prayer performed before the adhan and when is it performed after it, and if a person prays it five minutes before the adhan, is there any blame on him?

The questioner : When is the rawatib prayer performed before the prayer and when is it performed after it? And if one prays it five minutes before the adhan, is there any blame on him?
The Shaykh : The rawatib prayer performed before the obligatory prayer does not enter its time until the time of the obligatory prayer has entered, and its time extends until the iqamah is called. The rawatib prayer performed after the obligatory prayer is from the completion of the prayer until the time of the prayer ends. So if one prays the rawatib before the time of the prayer has entered, meaning the pre-prayer rawatib, it does not suffice for him, and it becomes a purely voluntary prayer, not a rawatib, and he must repeat it after the time has entered.
