What is the sunnah of Ishraq and what is the difference between it and the prayer of Dhuha?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Does the sunnah of Ishraq suffice in place of the sunnah of Dhuha?
The Shaykh : The sunnah of Dhuha is the sunnah of Ishraq. However, if you perform it early, from the time the sun rises and ascends the height of a spear, it is the prayer of Ishraq. If it is in the last part of the time or in the middle of the time, it is the prayer of Dhuha. But it is the prayer of Dhuha, because the scholars (may Allah have mercy on them) say that the time for the prayer of Dhuha is from the sun rising the height of a spear until just before the zenith.
