The questioner : May the Shaykh be honored, is it permissible to delay the Sunnah of 'Isha' to ten o'clock at night?
The Shaykh : Yes, the time for 'Isha'—may Allah reward you—extends from the immediate end of the time for Maghrib until the middle of the night. It is permissible to delay the obligatory prayer to ten o'clock in our current time, because ten o'clock is before the middle of the night. Likewise, it is permissible to delay its Sunnah to ten o'clock in our country at this time, because the time for 'Isha' extends to the middle of the night.
