Q 4: What is the ruling on
those who determine the times of Salah (Prayer) based on the clock,
and not as prescribed by the Prophet (peace be upon him) by awaiting their due times, as in the case of awaiting the advent of the red twilight in the morning to offer the Fajr (Dawn) Prayer and so on?
A:
Each Salah has a certain time at which it begins and ends. It was reported that
Jibril (Gabriel) led the Prophet (peace be upon him) in Salah at the beginning and at the end of the time of each Salah. Then he said: "The time of Salah is in the period between these two times."
The Prophet (peace be upon him) maintained offering the Five Obligatory Daily Prayers on their due times, and said:
Pray as you have seen me praying.
Accordingly, Muslims are required to observe the due times of Salah (Part No. 5; Page No. 85) and to hasten to perform them in congregation.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
