Missing the pre-Sunnah of Fajr and Zuhr and performing them later

· 2 Rabiʻ I 1446 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

If one misses the 2 Sunnah of Fajr and 4 Rakaats of Sunnah before Zhuhr due to joining the Jamaat (Congregation), can one make these Sunnah Salaah later?

Answer

Yes, one is permitted to perform the pre-Sunnah of Fajr and Zuhr later on the same day they were missed.

As for the Sunan of Fajr Salaah, one may perform them between after sunrise (Ishraaq) and before Zawaal. One cannot perform the said Sunan after the Fardh of Fajr before sunrise. (Al-Muheetul Burhaani 1/388, Maj’ma-ul Anhur 1/211)

As for the four pre-Sunan of Zuhr Salaah, one may perform them after the Fardh Salaah in the time of Zuhr Salaah of the same day. (Tabyeen-ul-Haqq’iq 1/183)

And Allah Ta’ala Knows Best

When do Fajr and Esha times start and end?

“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…”
