With reference to Q6042, during Summer up here in the Northern part of the world, when the time between Isha and Fajr is about 3 hours, when should one offer Tahajjud? www.IslamicFinder.com
Question
Even if we sleep right after Isha? it gets to be past 11 pm, and the Fajr time starts at around 3 am. Generally we get up for Fajr, and go right back to bed to make up the sleep. Tahajjud and Ishraq are quite hard to make it. Was wondering what would you recommend for these time zones? In winter it?s quite the opposite. Isha? time starts at 6 pm, and Fajr at 6 am.
Answer
In summer, get up and perform Tahajjud a few minutes before 3 a.m. then perform the Fajr after 3am.
We recommend that you may perform your Ishraaq when you get up. Insha Allah, Allah Ta'ala will give you the reward of Ishraaq.
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
