The questioner : ...

The Shaykh : When did he pray it in the hadith of Jibril?

The questioner : ...

The Shaykh : Yes, this is the beginning of the voluntary time, the preferred time, meaning until one-third of the night. If we are presented with evidence indicating that it extends to the middle of the night, we accept it, because it is an addition.

The questioner : For necessity, O Shaykh?

The Shaykh : No, no, until the middle of the night, not for necessity, but do not delay it beyond the middle of the night.
