in saudi arabia, the difference between maghrib and ishaa is 1 hr 30 min in normal days.

but in Ramadan, its 2 hrs. so does that mean i can pray maghrib after 1hr 45 min.

will it be valid?

:salam2: brother,

No, brother, you can't pray maghrib after 1 hr 45 mins coz that will be Isha' prayer by then. In Saudi Arabia, the prayer is postponed just to give people time to have their iftar and a little rest.

Exactly! MashaAllah!

Also brother you know what? It is Sunnah to do Isha Prayer a little late. But the Adhan should be given when time arises. :)

However in most of the places in the world, this Sunnah is not practiced as people seems TOO busy and it might be difficult for some people get Jamaa'ah then. Also due to the lack of awareness, some people will surely go and pray alone at the mosque, as they do not see any Jamaa'ah immediately after Adhan. :)

actually i was asking for maghrib salah.

in normal days the time between maghrib and ishaa is 1hr 30 min. but in ramadan its 2 hrs.

so will the time for maghrib end after 1hr 30 min in ramadan also?

I hope my sister will not have any problem if I attempt to answer this question, with and answer given by scholars.

The imam in our mosque delays ‘Isha’ prayer for almost an hour in Ramadaan. Is this permissible?.

Praise be to Allaah.

The time for ‘Isha’ prayer lasts from when the red afterglow in the sky after sunset disappears until halfway through the night.

It is preferable to delay ‘Isha’ prayer so long as that does not cause any hardship to the people, because Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Were it not that it would be too hard for my ummah, I would have commanded them to delay ‘Isha’ until one-third of the night had passed, or one half.” Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 167.

This hadeeth indicates that it is mustahabb to delay ‘Isha’ so long as that does not cause hardship to the members of the congregation. If it will cause hardship to them, then the prayer should be brought forward.

It was narrated that ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) stayed late one night until most of the night had gone and the people in the mosque had fallen asleep, then he went out and prayed. He said, “This would be its time, were it not that this would be difficult for my ummah.” Narrated by Muslim, 638.

And it was narrated that Jaabir said, when he mentioned the times when the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) prayed: “He sometimes delayed ‘Isha’, and sometimes brought it forward if he saw that they had gathered early. But if he saw that they were coming late, he would delay it.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 1/141; Muslim, 646. See Ma’rifat Awqaat al-‘Ibaadaat by Dr. Khaalid al-Mushayqih, 1/291.

In some countries the people are accustomed to delaying ‘Isha’ for half an hour or so after the time for it begins, so that people can break their fast at leisure and get ready to pray ‘Isha’ and Taraaweeh.

There is nothing wrong with doing this, on condition that the imam does not delay the prayer so much that he causes hardship to the members of the congregation, as mentioned above.

It is better to refer to the people who attend the mosque and reach an agreement with them on the time for the prayer, because they know best what suits them.

And Allaah knows best.

Islam Q&A


However brother that does not mean that the start of Isha time is Delayed. It cannot be, and Adhan should be given when time arises. But that means the Prayer is Delayed.

Hope you got it. :)

there are a few fatwas about the time between maghrib and isha. One states there should be at least 70 minutes and the other about 90 minutes. The sheik in your masjid will advise you on this, as it is a community agreement for the area you live.

in Ramadhan they add more time which is permissible, to allow eating and drinking before doing taraweeh/tahjjud prayers.

I'm your brother
no brother its better you pray exactly when you here the azan

Agreed.

Time for magrib will be gone as soon as the redness in the sky is gone...this is according to my sheikh here. I respect masjid run by hanafi ppl here, they do not wait too long after the adzan.

I wonder why you need more time for iftar unless you take heavy meals. What we do here we break fast with few dates and plain water or juices. Then we proceed to perform Magrib. After Magrib and offer optional salat then we proceed to take heavier meals.
