The questioner : How are you?
The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah, I am well.
The questioner : Praise be to Allah. We have three questions, quickly.
The Shaykh : What Allah willed.
The questioner : The first is a man or a person who gave his zakat al-fitr before the Eid prayer, and the sun was shining brightly, as Allah wills. Is that sufficient for him?
The Shaykh : Yes, exactly.
The questioner : I mean, there is no specific time; the point is that it must be before the prayer, is that right?
