QUESTION:
Upto what time can I pray Fajr till? Am I right in thinking up to sunrise?
ANSWER:
In ‘Nur ul Idah’ it is stated:
“The timing of the Fajr prayer is from the True Dawn until just before Sunrise.”
[Nur ul Idah pg. 69]
It is further stated in the same book that from the nullifiers of prayer is:
“The rising of the sun in Fajr.” [ibid pg. 120]
Therefore one must complete the Fajr prayer prior to sunrise.
Allah knows best.
