Performing Fajr Salaah before sunrise
Question
Till what time can one offer fajr prayer?
Answer
Fajr salaah will be valid until sunrise. However, it is makrooh for one to intentionally delay performing the salaah until the end of the salaah time without any valid excuse.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
