Is it a condition for the regular voluntary prayer before Fajr and the one before Zuhr that the time for the prayer has entered?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May the mercy and blessings of Allah be upon you.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and Allah's mercy and blessings.
The questioner : Is it a condition for the regular voluntary prayer before Zuhr and before Fajr that the time for the prayer has entered?
The Shaykh : The regular voluntary prayer performed before the obligatory prayer must be after the time has entered, because it is attached to a prayer that is not valid except after its time. So, if a person prays it before the time has entered, thinking that the time has entered, and it is then found that it has not entered, he should repeat it. The first one becomes a voluntary prayer, a purely voluntary one, not a regular one.
