The Shaykh’s discussion regarding the duration of the disappearance of the red twilight after the time of Maghrib has entered.

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner: Peace be upon you.

The Shaykh: And upon you peace.

The questioner : The Asr prayer, O Shaykh, is almost over!

The Shaykh: Yes.

The questioner : The Shaykh Abu Malik said last week: The adhan is delayed by fifty-five minutes.

The Shaykh : What?

The questioner : The adhan, O Shaykh, is delayed by fifty-five minutes.

The Shaykh : Delayed? What do you mean?

The questioner : From Maghrib, meaning the twilight disappears and then the adhan is called, meaning they call the adhan fifty-five minutes after the twilight has disappeared.

The Shaykh : No, you are mistaken, no, you are mistaken. He wants to say: The twilight disappears after fifty-five minutes, it disappears, that is what he means.

The questioner : I understand, my Shaykh, this is the closest interpretation.

Another questioner : It is according to how he calculated it, he!

The Shaykh : But, my brother, but, we observe that there is a difference of half an hour between the official or calculated adhan and the disappearance of the red twilight, yes, that is right.

The questioner : The Shaykh says: I used to say one hour, but when he calculated it last week, he said: I was mistaken by five minutes. This is the exact wording of the Shaykh.

The Shaykh : Allah knows best who is mistaken.
