The Ruling on Delaying Voluntary Prayers Until Just Before Fajr

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Eminence is asked about the ruling on delaying the voluntary prayers until half an hour before Fajr?

Answer:
There is no harm, but it is better if you advance the time so that there is ample time, and so that you can pray what Allah has made easy for you with calmness. You should pray eleven rak'ahs, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do, offering the taslim after every two, striving in the recitation and in lengthening the ruku' and sujud. This is better, because the narrow time may not allow you to achieve what is required... the required prayer and the required supplications. But if you delay it until the end of the night and pray what Allah has made easy for you, there is no blame on you, and praise be to Allah. Yes.
