Question

How many minutes before sunset is it not permissible to make salaah or sajdah-e-tilaawat? Some say atleast half an hour before sunset and some say about three minutes before sunset.

Answer

There is no set time for determining the makrooh time. It would be approximately 15 minutes before sunset.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
