Question:
The questioner who sent this inquiry, whose name is coded as (S. M. Sh) from the city of al-Numah, says in the first question: Is it permissible for me to pray the regular voluntary prayers (rawatib) before the adhan?
Answer:
The regular voluntary prayer (sunnah) after the adhan: for Dhuhr, it is four rak'ahs before it and two or four after it. For Fajr, the regular voluntary prayer is two rak'ahs after the dawn breaks. As for Maghrib and Isha, their regular voluntary prayers are after them: two rak'ahs after Maghrib and two rak'ahs after Isha. If one prays before Asr, it is better to pray it after the time has entered as four rak'ahs with two taslims. If the mu'adhdhin calls the adhan when the time for Asr has entered, it is better to pray four rak'ahs with two taslims.
As for praying it before the time, no, it does not count, and it does not become a regular voluntary prayer (rawatib). If one prays it before the time, for example before Isha, before the adhan for Isha, it becomes part of the prayer between Maghrib and Isha. Or if one prays before Dhuhr, before the time for Dhuhr, if it is before the sun stands still, it becomes part of the Duha prayer. And if it is when the sun is standing still, that is a time of prohibition, where no regular prayer is performed except for those with specific causes. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
