Qadha Salaat Between The Sunnat Fajr And Fardh Of Fajr Salaah

· 12 Jumada II 1443 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

Can one perform Qadha of a missed Salaat during the period between the Sunnat of Fajr and Fardh of Fajr. Note: After having performed my Fajr Sunnat I have sufficient time before the Fajr Fardh commences.

Answer

Yes, it will be permissible to perform Qadhaa during this time although Nafl Salaah is not permitted from the time of Subh Saadiq until approximately 15 min after sunrise.

However, the Qadhaa Salaah should not be performed in the Masjid in front of others at this time as people will realize that he is performing his missed Salaah, which is tantamount to advertising one’s sins. This Salaah should therefore be performed at home or in some secluded area.
