Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Until what time is it permissible to delay the 'Isha' prayer?
The Shaykh : Until the middle of the night, as the hadith regarding this is explicit in Sahih Muslim, from the hadith of 'Abdullah ibn 'Amr ibn al-'As, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih Muslim 612e, and not until the appearance of the true dawn. There is no evidence for this, even though some of the imams say it, for it is actually contrary to this authentic hadith, and the time for the 'Isha' prayer is until the middle of the night. Yes.
The Shaykh : Until the middle of the night, as the hadith regarding this is explicit in Sahih Muslim, from the hadith of 'Abdullah ibn 'Amr ibn al-'As, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
