Performing maghrib salaah before esha time enters

· 20 Safar 1440 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I leave work before maghrib and on my way home maghrib prayer time enters. I cannot offer maghrib when the time enters and only offer maghrib prayers just before Esha prayer. Is it allowed to offer maghrib prayer before Esha if you dont offer it on time?

Answer

The time of Maghrib remains until the Esha time sets in. If you perform the Maghrib before the Esha time sets in then the namaaz is valid.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

“According to the Mufta-Bihi view that is practiced upon in the Hanafi Madhab, when the Shafi’ee Asr time sets in, the time of Zuhr is still remaining; therefore in principle yes, the Zuhr Salaah will be valid if a Hanafi delays…”
