Lesson No 52
Ans. The time for 'Asr' begins and that of dhuhr ends when the shadow of a thing becomes twice the original plus its original shadow. It lasts till sunset. But as and when the sun lowers and sunshine loses its brightness and grows yellow-wish, Salat of Asr becomes undesirable. It should be completed before such a time.
Ans. The time for Maghrib prayer begins after the sun has set and lasts till after the crimson (Shafaq) has finished.
Ans. The redness that appears on the sky after sunset in the west is known as crimson (Shafaq). After this redness disappears, there remains a sort of whiteness. This is known as white "crimson". This whiteness also eventually disappears and the entire sky wears the same look. Time for the Maghrib prayer lasts until this white crimson vanishes.
Ans. Early moments are preferable. It is undesirable to delay the Salat without sufficient excuse.
Ans. Time for 'Isha' begins with the dis-appearance of white "crimson" and lasts till the time of true dawn.
Ans. Desirable time for the Salat of 'Isha' lasts until the one third of the night is over. Even after this, it is permissible till midnight. Saying 'Isha' prayer after that is undesirable.
Ans. Time fixed for the Salat of Witr is the same as for 'Isha. Witr is however not allowed before the 'Isha prayers. This means that Witr can only follow and not precede 'Isha.
Ans. If a person has confidence in him that he will wake up in the later part of the night, Witr is desirable to be performed in the later part of the night. If he is not sure of waking up after sleep, he should say it before he goes to bed. Please Select the Lessons from Jump Menu
