Q: Who said that after the middle of the night, the time for 'Isha' has ended absolutely?
A: No, the time of choice has ended. In the authentic hadith, when he was asked about sleeping, he said:Sunan Abi Dawud 441Sahih (Al-Albani) that one delays the prayer until the time of the next prayer enters. So he considered the time between the two times to be a "time," except for Fajr, whose time ends with the rising of the sun.
