Why are there so many forbidden times of Salat? What happens if we happen to read salat in these times? Does it get accepted?

Answer

The forbidden times of Salaat are stipulated by Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) himself. According to the Hanafi Madhab, if any present Fardh Salaat is performed during the forbidden times, it will be discharged but Makrooh.

If a person performs Qadhaa Salaat during Makrooh times, it will not be discharged.

Ask AskImam

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
