\n\tQuestion:<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tCan you pray the Jumma prayer before Zawal time or before Zuhr pray time. One of the imam in Oklahoma city Islamic School saying that Jumma prayer is different than Zuhr prayer so can be prayed before zawal time please help us to guide us in this issue<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAnswer:<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t\"Bismillah\"<\/a>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAccording to Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal \"ra\u1e25imahull\u0101h jummah salah begins before zawal, whereas the other Imams, including Imam Abu Hanifa \"ra\u1e25imahull\u0101h say that it begins after zawal. (Dars Tirmizi p.276 v.2)<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tZawal means the time when the Sun moves away from its peak and this is when Zuhr time starts.   Istiwa is when the Sun is at its highest peak at noon and that is when to read salah is impermissible.   (Raddul Muhtar p.31 v.2)<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tTo calculate ‘Istiwa’ it is half of the time between Sunrise and Sunset.  The time when the Sun is at its peak is for a momentary period; therefore it is difficult to pinpoint the exact moment.  Hence the jurists out of caution have said five minutes before and five minutes after ‘Istiwa’ time one should refrain from reading any salah.   (Aapke Masaail p.144 v.2)<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIn the aforementioned situation, try advising the Imam that as there may be followers from other Schools of Thoughts and Madhabs it will be best to pray the Salah after zawal and not before.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tOnly Allah Knows Best<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
