Question

Similarly, if the sun begins to set before one finishes Asr, does that prayer become invalid? Thank you.

Answer

If the sun rises during the Fajr Salaat, then the Salaat will be invalidated. However, if it sets during the Asr prayer, performance of Salaat at this time will be Makrooh (detestable) but should be completed. (Hidaaya vol.1)
