What is the first time for the Duha prayer and its last time?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
(The Duha prayer) is until a quarter of an hour before the Zuhr prayer; is this the last time?
Answer:
Once the sun has passed its zenith, the time begins before Zuhr, even before the adhan. When the sun passes its zenith, the time for Zuhr enters. Its passing of the zenith is its inclination toward the west; this is its zenith. If it turns toward the west, that is the zenith.
Q: And the Ishraq prayer?
The Shaykh: It is the early Duha prayer.
Q: The hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): that if one prays Fajr and then sits remembering Allah, a complete Hajj and 'Umrah are written for him?
The Shaykh: This is the Duha prayer, the early Duha prayer.
Q: Is the hadith authentic?
The Shaykh: There is nothing wrong with it; it has good chains of transmission.
