Is it permissible
for employees to offer Salat-ul-Duha (supererogatory Prayer after sunrise) during work time,
especially when many employees do so, which results in work not being completed on time? We hope you will provide us with a written reply! May Allah reward you!
A:
The basic ruling is offering the supererogatory (acts of worship) at home according to the statement of the Prophet (peace be upon him):
The most rewarded prayer is that performed in your houses except for the obligatory prayer.
The Prophet (peace be upon him) also stated:
Observe some of your Prayers in your houses and do not make them like graves.
(Agreed upon by Al-Bukhari and Muslim).
Subsequently, (Part No. 23; Page No. 423) an employee should not stop his work, which is obligatory, to offer a supererogatory (act of worship). An employee can offer Salat-ul-Duha at home before he comes to work a while after sunrise, that is, after the time of Nahy (time when supererogatory Prayer is prohibited after Fajr Prayer) around fifteen minutes after sunrise.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
