Is It Permissible To Perform Qada Or Nafilah Prayers During The Period Between Dawn And Dawn?

Fatwas

Is it permissible to establish qada or nafl (voluntary) prayers other than the rawatib (sunnah cycles) of fajr prayer between dawn and sunrise?

Although it is more appropriate to perform the prayer of that time after the time of a prayer has entered, it can be performed before the missed prayer as long as there is no danger of missing the prayer of that time. Therefore, after performing the sunnah of the fajr prayer, if there is still time for the sun to rise, the qada prayer can be performed in the meantime.

It is not permissible to establish a sunnah or nafl prayer other than two rakat sunnah of fajr prayer after the dawn. Because the Prophet Muhammad (saw) did not establish any prayers except two rakat sunnah of fajr prayer following the dawn although he is fond of establishing prayer (Mawsili, al-Ikhtiyar, I, 134-135).

It is accepted as makruh to perform nafl prayer after establishing fajr prayer due to the narration (Bukhari, Mawaqit al-Salat, 30) that the Prophet (saw) prohibited performing prayers until sun goes up in one spear-length after establishing fajr prayer and until sun sets after establishing ‘asr prayer (Marghinani, al-Hidayah, I, 269).
