Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah reward you. Regarding the current time, as for the 'Asr prayer, is it better to delay it or perform it early?
The Shaykh : It is better to perform every prayer early, except for the 'Isha' prayer. For the 'Isha' prayer, it is better to delay it, unless the people have already gathered. However, regarding the current time, people have become accustomed to certain things that must be taken into consideration. First, they are accustomed to not turning to the prayer until the adhan is called. Also, regarding the wudu', some people may find it difficult to perform. Similarly, for example, in the 'Asr prayer, some people might be sleeping. A person should take into account the conditions of the people. The most important thing for the imam is that he does not perform the prayer early one day and delay it another day. This is the most important thing. Yes.
