Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu
Was Salaam 'ala Rasulillah. As-Salaam Alaikum WA-Rahmatullahi Wa-Barakatuhu.
Praise be
to Allaah; we seek His help and His forgiveness. We seek refuge with Allaah
from the evil of our own souls and from our bad deeds. Whomsoever Allaah guides
will never be led astray, and whomsoever Allaah leaves astray, no one can
guide. I bear witness that there is no god but Allaah, and I bear witness that
Muhammad (ﷺ)
is His slave and Messenger.
يَـٰٓأَيُّہَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ
ٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَلۡتَنظُرۡ نَفۡسٌ۬ مَّا قَدَّمَتۡ لِغَدٍ۬ۖ وَٱتَّقُواْ
ٱللَّهَۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ خَبِيرُۢ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُونَ (١٨)
O ye who
believe! Fear Allah and let every soul look to what (provision) he has sent
forth for the morrow. Yea, fear Allah: for Allah is well-acquainted with (all)
that ye do[1].
مَّا كَانَ مُحَمَّدٌ أَبَآ أَحَدٍ۬
مِّن رِّجَالِكُمۡ وَلَـٰكِن رَّسُولَ ٱللَّهِ وَخَاتَمَ ٱلنَّبِيِّـۧنَۗ وَكَانَ
ٱللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَىۡءٍ عَلِيمً۬ا (٤٠)
Muhammad
is not the father of any of your men, but (he is) the Messenger of Allah, and
the Seal of the Prophets: and Allah has full knowledge of all things[2].
إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ
وَمَلَـٰٓٮِٕڪَتَهُ ۥ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى ٱلنَّبِىِّۚ يَـٰٓأَيُّہَا ٱلَّذِينَ
ءَامَنُواْ صَلُّواْ عَلَيۡهِ وَسَلِّمُواْ تَسۡلِيمًا (٥٦)
Allah and
His angels, send blessings on the Prophet: O ye that believe! Send ye blessings
on him and salute him, with all respect[3].
فَوَيۡلٌ۬
لِّلَّذِينَ يَكۡتُبُونَ ٱلۡكِتَـٰبَ بِأَيۡدِيہِمۡ ثُمَّ يَقُولُونَ هَـٰذَا مِنۡ عِندِ ٱللَّهِ
لِيَشۡتَرُواْ بِهِۦ ثَمَنً۬ا قَلِيلاً۬ۖ فَوَيۡلٌ۬ لَّهُم مِّمَّا ڪَتَبَتۡ

Woe,
then, to those who write the book with their hands and then say: This is from
Allah, so that they may take for it a small price; therefore woe to them for
what their hands have written and woe to them for what they earn[4].
لِّلَّهِ مَا فِى
ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٲتِ وَمَا فِى ٱلۡأَرۡضِۗ وَإِن تُبۡدُواْ مَا فِىٓ أَنفُسِڪُمۡ
أَوۡ تُخۡفُوهُ يُحَاسِبۡكُم بِهِ ٱللَّهُۖ فَيَغۡفِرُ لِمَن يَشَآءُ
وَيُعَذِّبُ مَن يَشَآءُۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ ڪُلِّ شَىۡءٍ۬ قَدِيرٌ (٢٨٤)
Whatever
is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth is Allah's; and whether you
manifest what is in your minds or hide it, Allah will call you to account
according to it; then He will forgive whom He pleases and chastise whom He
pleases, and Allah has power over all things[5].
إِنَّمَآ أَمۡوَٲلُكُمۡ
وَأَوۡلَـٰدُكُمۡ فِتۡنَةٌ۬ۚ وَٱللَّهُ عِندَهُ ۥۤ أَجۡرٌ عَظِيمٌ۬ (١٥)
Your riches
and your children may be but a trial: but in the Presence of Allah is the
highest Reward[6].
Preamble/Introduction
Tahiyat al-Masjid at
times when prayer is not allowed - Islam Question & Answer
https://www.google.com/amp/s/islamqa.info/amp/en/answers/306
The correct opinion is that Tahiyat al-masjid is permitted at
all times, even after Fajr and after ‘Asr, because of the general applicability
of the hadeeth
“When any one of you enters the Mosque, he should not sit down
until he has prayed two rak’ahs” (Saheeh – agreed upon),
and because this is one of the prayers that is done for a
specific reason, like Salaat al-Tawaaf (prayer done after circumambulating the
Ka’bah) and Salaat al-Kusoof (prayer at the time of an eclipse).
Salatul Tasbih
My question is that, can can I pray Salatul Tasbhi anytime? Be
it in the morning, evening or at night?
Prayers have specified
timings
Forbidden and allowed timings for non-obligatory prayers
Salatul Tasbih are challenged by some and accepted by
others due single SOURCE
HOWEVER check yourself.
*How To Perform
Salatul Tasbih (Prayer of Forgiveness)*
Salah is one of the most important constituents of Muslim life
and is the second pillar of Islam after Shahadah (belief in One Allah SWT and
His Last Messenger ﷺ). Its basic aim is to communicate with the
Almighty Lord, asking for His forgiveness and adopting the way of morality and
uprightness. It is also a great means of supplication to the Gracious God for
completion of one`s rightful wishes and desires.
Namaz is of two types: one is obligatory and the other is
supererogatory in nature. The former is made compulsory on every believer to
perform Salah five times a day at their specific times, i.e. Fajr (Morning),
Dhuhur (Noon), Asr (Afternoon), Maghrib (Evening) and Isha (Night) prayers. On
the other hand, the latter is the Sunnah (Way of Life) of the Holy Prophet ﷺ, Who used to offer prayers in His spare time which are known as
Nafl (noncompulsory) Salats. Some of such prayers are Tahiyatul Wudu, Tahajjud,
Ishraq, Chaasht and Tasbeeh Salats etc.
*Background And
Importance Of Salaatul Tasbeeh*
Tasbeeh is an Arabic whose literal meaning is “to Glorify Allah
SWT”. It is actually a form Dhikr (remembrance of God) done by Muslims, which
involves recurring phrases comprising of Adoration of the Almighty Lords.
Hence, it is a practice involving praising of the Exalted One and showing one`s
gratitude in front of Him.
Among all the Nafl prayers, the Salah of Tasbeeh holds a great
distinction in terms of its remarkable importance in Muslim life. The Messenger
ﷺ of God used to pray it and also regarded it highly beneficial
for His followers to pray it in order to benefit from its huge implications
resulting in one`s forgiveness of sins.
Rasulullah ﷺ is narrated to have said to his uncle Hazrat
‘Abbas (R.A):
O Abbas! O my uncle! Shall I not give you a gift? Shall I not show
you something by means of which Allah will forgive your sins, the first and the
last of them, the past and recent, the unintentional and the intentional, the
small and huge, the secret and open? The Holy Prophet ﷺ then taught him the Salah al-Tasbih. Furthermore he advised him
that it be offered daily, if possible. If not, then every Friday or once a
month or once a year or at least once in one’s life time. (Abu Dawood).
According to the above mentioned Hadith, Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ, through guiding His own uncle, Hazrat Abbas (R.A), has awarded
the whole Muslim community with a grand present of Salaatul Tasbeeh. This
prayer encloses a method of pleasing the Most Merciful to grant believer mercy
for its sins which have been committed in the past.
*Times when it is
forbidden to pray*
Can you please tell me what the forbidden times of prayers in a
day are.
Answer
Praise be to Allah.
There are times when it is forbidden to pray. They are as
follows:
From dawn until
sunrise
From sunrise until the sun has risen to the height of a spear
above the horizon; nowadays this is regarded as equivalent to twelve minutes
after sunrise, but to be on the safe side one should make it a quarter of an
hour.
When the sun is
overhead at noon, until it has passed its zenith
From ‘Asr prayer until
sunset
When the sun starts to
set until it is completely set
These times may be
summed up more briefly as follows:
From dawn until the
sun has risen to the height of a spear
When it is directly
overhead at noon until it has passed its zenith
From ‘Asr prayer until
the sun has set completely.
When we say from dawn, we mean that one should not offer
voluntary prayers after the adhaan of Fajr except the Sunnah of Fajr. This is
the view of the Hanbalis. The Shaafa’is are of the view that the prohibition
has to do with Fajr prayer itself, so it is not forbidden to offer voluntary
prayers between the adhaan and iqaamah, rather it is forbidden to offer
voluntary prayers after offering the obligatory prayer of Fajr.
This is the more correct view, but one should not offer any
voluntary prayer after dawn apart from the two Sunnah rak’ahs of Fajr, because
the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) only prayed two brief
rak’ahs after dawn had broken.
See al-Sharh al-Mumti’ by Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen, 4/160.
This is indicated by the report narrated by al-Bukhaari (547)
and Muslim (1367) from Ibn ‘Abbaas, who said: Some trustworthy men bore
witness in my presence, the most trustworthy of whom in my view was ‘Umar, that
the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) forbade praying after
Fajr until the sun had risen and after ‘Asr until the sun had set.”
Al-Bukhaari (548) and Muslim (1371) narrated that Ibn ‘Umar
said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
“When the top edge of the sun has risen, then delay praying until it has risen
above the horizon, and when the lower part of the sun has set, delay praying
until it is fully set.”
Al-Bukhaari (551) narrated that Abu Sa’eed al-Khudri said: I heard
the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) say: “There
is no prayer after Fajr until the sun has risen fully, and no prayer after ‘Asr
until the sun has set.”
Muslim (1373) narrated that ‘Uqbah ibn ‘Aamir al-Juhani said:
“There are three times at which the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of
Allaah be upon him) forbade us to pray or to bury our dead: when the sun has
clearly started to rise until it is fully risen, when it is directly overhead
at midday until it has passed its zenith, and when the sun starts to set until
it has fully set.”
And Allaah knows best.
