The Shaykh : He says: At this time, if people were to cool down regarding what the Sunnah brought, that would result in abandoning an obligatory duty, because they would leave their jobs and then sleep, and if one sleeps after exhaustion, can he get up? So, do we say in this situation that we should leave this recommended practice, yes, in order to avert this harm, and we say that a lesser good may occur that makes it better than the greater good. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) chose, or informed that, the chosen time for the 'Isha' prayer is after one-third of the night has passed, but he would advance it out of consideration for his Companions, because he would advance it from the chosen time out of consideration for his Companions. So, do we say that the Zuhr prayer is like it, if we advance it out of consideration for people and their conditions today? The answer is yes, without a doubt, and religion is ease.
