Question:
Assalamu Aleykum esteemed Sheikh,
In Sweden and perhaps in other countries, the time of Ishaa (night prayer) begins after midnight.
In this case, is it true that the time for Ishaa prayer continues until Fajr (morning prayer)? Because scholars say that the time for Ishaa lasts until midnight, but this does not happen for us except after midnight.
Honorable Sheikh Arafat answered: Wa Aleykum Assalam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu
Yes, the time for Ishaa extends until Fajr (morning prayer).
