The Ruling on Praying the Duha Prayer After the First Adhan for Friday
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner in this question says: Your Eminence, what is the ruling on performing the Duha prayer after the first adhan on Friday?
Answer:
The Duha prayer is a recommended practice (sunnah) on Friday and other days, and performing it after the first adhan is permissible; because the sun has not yet reached its zenith. On Friday, the correct view is that there is no prohibited time at the zenith; because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) prescribed for people that when they enter the mosque, they should pray whatever Allah enables them to pray, and he did not say to them: except when the sun has stopped. This indicates that on Friday, prayer continues until the imam enters to deliver the sermon, and there is no prohibited time in the middle of the day. This is the stronger position. So if a Muslim prays in the mosque whatever number of rak'ahs Allah makes easy for him until the imam enters, there is no harm. And if a woman prays the Duha prayer in her home, whatever Allah makes easy for her before or after the first adhan, there is no harm.
