Pearl of Wisdom

to his son al-Hasan (AS), ?O son, increase your remembrance of death, of that which overcomes it, and of that which you will return to after death such that when it comes to you, you will have taken heed of it and strengthened yourself for it, and you will not let it overcome you by surprise so that it overpowers you.'

Question : #412 Category: Salaat / Prayers
Subject: Praying before the schedule time
Question: Salaam,
Can we pray earlier then the schedule, and or is there circumstances when we can pray earlier?
Answer: A person can start offering prayers only when be becomes certain that the time has set in or when two just (Adil) persons inform that the time has set in. In fact, one can rely upon the Adhan, or on advice of a person who knows the timings and is reliable.

So one cannot perform their prayers earlier.

There are rulings that allow a delay in the time of prayer such that if a person cannot be certain about the Prime time for prayers due to a personal handicap like blindness or general hindrances like dust or clouds he should delay the prayer till such time when he feels sure that the time has set in.
