She has a third and final inquiry in her letter, in which she says: I pray the Dhuha prayer after the Fajr prayer, meaning: immediately after the sun rises, and sometimes I pray it before the Dhuhr prayer. Is this correct?
Answer: The matter is broad regarding the Dhuha prayer. Its time begins when the sun has risen the height of a spear and continues until the sun stands at its zenith; the entire period is a time for Dhuha. The best time to pray it is after the heat of the morning has intensified. When the heat of the morning intensifies, that is the prayer of the returning ones. When the heat of the morning intensifies, that is the best time. If one prays it at the beginning of the time, after the sun has risen, there is no harm. The matter is broad, praise be to Allah, in this regard. So if one prays it at the beginning of the time, there is no harm. If one prays it during the time, there is no harm. And if one prays it when the heat of the morning is intense, that is the best. The important thing is to be consistent with it and to care for it. If one is occupied at the end of the time and fears that he will not be able to pray it, he should hasten to pray it at the beginning of the time so that he may attain its virtue. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) advised Abu Hurayrah and Abu al-Darda regarding the Dhuha prayer, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said:. This indicates the virtue of these two rak'ahs and that they have a great status. If one prays four, six, eight, or more, there is no harm, but the minimum is two rak'ahs of Dhuha. Yes.

For every joint of a person, there is a charity. For every tasbih, there is a charity. For every tahliyah, there is a charity. For every takbir, there is a charity. For every tahmid, there is a charity. Enjoining what is right is a charity, and forbidding what is wrong is a charity. He said: And sufficient for that are two rak'ahs that you pray in the morning.
على كل سلامى من الناس صدقة، فبكل تسبيحة صدقة، وبكل تهليلة صدقة، وبكل تكبيرة صدقة، وبكل تحميدة صدقة، فأمر بالمعروف صدقة، ونهي عن المنكر صدقة، قال: ويكفي من ذلك ركعتان تركعهما من الضحىThe presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
