Question:
If one wants to delay the prayer—other than the midday prayer—is it better to call the adhan with the people at the appointed time and then pray as he sees fit?
Answer:
Yes, the adhan is called with the people, and the prayer is according to circumstances. For example, regarding the night prayer: if he sees that they have gathered, he hastens it, and if he sees that they are delaying, he delays it.
Q: But the midday prayer alone is delayed in both the adhan and the prayer?
The Shaykh: If the heat becomes intense, they delay the adhan and the prayer; this is the Sunnah.
Q: So this is specific to the midday prayer, whereas for prayers other than the midday prayer, the adhan is called at the appointed time?
The Shaykh: Yes.
