The limit of delaying the Zuhr prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: Is there a limit to delaying the Zuhr prayer, such as one or two hours after the time has entered, for example?
A: It is prescribed for the imam to delay the Zuhr prayer in the case of intense heat, even while traveling; because of the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):Sunan Ibn Majah 677Sahih (Darussalam) As far as we know, there is no specific limit for this. Rather, it is prescribed for the imam to be careful in this matter. When the intensity of the heat subsides and the shade becomes abundant in the markets, that is sufficient. And success is from Allah.
A: It is prescribed for the imam to delay the Zuhr prayer in the case of intense heat, even while traveling; because of the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):
When it is very hot, then wait for it to cool down before you pray, for intense heat is from the flaring up of the Hell-fire.
إذا اشتد الحر فأبردوا بالصلاة فإن شدة الحر من فيح جهنم
