Question:
Who said that the operative cause of delaying the prayer is the intensity of the heat, and that in this time, air conditioners remove this cause?
Answer:
And do not nullify the Sunnah; because the roads do not have air conditioning, the roads have heat, they do not have air conditioning, and not every country has air conditioning.
Q: Does the delay extend... the heat may extend?
The Shaykh: Until it breaks, if half an hour or so has passed, the heat breaks.
