The Ruling on Performing the Pre-Obligatory Sunnah Prayer During the Adhan
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A message was received for the program from one of the female listeners, Ummaymah. Our sister has a set of questions. In her first question, she asks about the following issue: Is it permissible for me to pray during the adhan, meaning the pre-obligatory sunnah prayer, or the obligatory prayer, without waiting for the mu'adhdhin to finish?
Answer:
Once the time has entered, prayer is permissible even if the adhan has not been called. If the time has entered and the believer, male or female, knows that the time has entered by the setting of the sun, for example, or the setting of the sun, for example, or the appearance of the dawn, he prays, even if he has not heard an adhan. However, if there is doubt, one should not hasten; rather, one should delay until the entry of the time is confirmed, until the mu'adhdhins call the adhan. There is no need for haste. The person, whether male or female, should not hasten until the entry of the time is confirmed, or until he is convinced of its entry based on clear signs. One should not hasten in this matter. The woman, praise be to Allah, has leeway; she remains in her home and does not hasten until the mu'adhdhins call the adhan. A time also passes after the adhan, so she takes precaution for her religion. She is not bound by the men, but she takes precaution for her religion by delaying a short time after the adhan.
As for the man, he prays with the people and goes to the mosques. If he is unable to do so due to illness or because he is bedridden, he prays at home. In this case, he is like the woman; he does not hasten until the time is confirmed, or until he is convinced of the entry of the time by the signs indicating it. He does not hasten. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good. Regarding the man, if he enters the mosque, Your Eminence, during the performance of the adhan, does he wait for the adhan to finish, or does he perform the greeting of the mosque?
The Shaykh: It is better to wait until he responds to the mu'adhdhin, then he prays two rak'ahs. This allows him to combine the two recommended practices: responding to the mu'adhdhin while standing. So, if he responds to the mu'adhdhin and that is completed, he prays two rak'ahs. However, if standing is difficult for him, he prays two rak'ahs, and praise be to Allah. Yes.
