Pearl of Wisdom

'How wonderful for a Muslim that Allah does not ordain a fate for him unless it is good for him, even if he was to be cut with scissors it would be for his benefit, and even if he was to own the east side of the world and the west, it would be for his good.'

Imam Ja'far ibn Muhammad al-Sadiq [as]

al-Kafi, v. 2, p. 62, no. 8

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.
