Question

I got home a little late from college and there was little time left for Maghrib but I prayed it anyway and got a little into Esha time. Was it wrong for me to pray Maghrib knowing it was about to be over? Should I pray anyway if a situation like this occurs?

Answer

No, the maghrib 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…”
