Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Is there a sunnah before or after Maghrib?
Answer:
The rawatib after Maghrib and after 'Isha' are prescribed. As for the two rak'ahs before Maghrib, they are a sunnah but not rawatib. However, if one is in the mosque, it is recommended for him to pray two rak'ahs after the adhan—after the adhan of Maghrib—and likewise after the adhan of 'Isha'. This is based on his saying (peace and blessings be upon him):Sunan an-Nasa'i 681Sahih (Darussalam) He said in the third instance: Therefore, it is recommended to pray two rak'ahs after the adhan, the adhan of Maghrib and the adhan of 'Isha', because of this hadith, and another hadith: Bulugh al-Maram 2:264 Then he said in the third instance: This indicates that they are recommended, not obligatory. Yes.
