The times at which prayer is disliked

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question: What are the times at which prayer is disliked?

Answer: The times at which prayer is disliked are the five times specified by the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). This is from the appearance of the dawn until the sun rises. When the dawn appears, only the voluntary prayer of Fajr is performed, and anything beyond that is not prayed until the sun rises.

And the second time: When the sun is in the middle of the sky until it passes its zenith, meaning when the sun is directly overhead in the middle of the sky until it passes its zenith.

And the third time: From the 'Asr prayer until the sun sets.
These are three times in general terms.

As for the details, they are five times:
From the Fajr prayer until the sun rises, and from the sun rising until it has risen the length of a spear, and when it is in the middle of the sky until it passes its zenith, and after the
'Asr prayer until it approaches sunset, and if you add the time from approaching sunset until it actually sets, these are five.
Some people add a sixth time, which is between the appearance of the dawn and the Fajr prayer.

Question: Meaning, in these times: only the voluntary prayer is disliked. As for the obligatory prayer as a make-up, is it performed in any of these times?

Answer: Yes, the obligatory prayer is performed as soon as a person is able to do so;As he (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Whoever forgets a prayer or sleeps through it, let him pray it when he remembers it. There is no expiation for it other than that.من نسي صلاة أو نام عنها فليصلها إذا ذكرها، لا كفارة لها إلا ذلك
Sunan ad-Darimi 2:45
, so the obligatory prayer is performed at any time, and there is no prohibited time for its make-up, unlike the voluntary prayer.
