| [slm] It is called "Ishraaq" اشراق and it is prayed when the sun has risen considerably above the horizon. It is said in multiples of two, and I just read today that it is between 2 to 12 rakaahs, whereas I used to think it wis four rakaahs. There might be a difference of opinion among the scholars, or I may have thought wrong. |

| [slm] I did a search and this is what I found: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&q=dhuha+prayer&spell=1 Hope this helps. I found this on a website also: Perform salat ad-Dhuha: Abu Hurairah said, "My friend (the Prophet) advised me to observe three things, not to abandon them till I die; to fast three days a month, to perform two rak'at of Duha (forenoon) salah, and to make witr before sleeping." (Bukhari and Muslim). This is one of the forgotten sunnah of the Prophet, sallallahu alayhe wasallam, that needs to be revived. Two or more rak'a should be prayed some time after the sun rises until a few moments before noon. The preferred time is when the sun is extremely hot, which usually occurs around the hour before noon. A mother has a wonderful opportunity to renew this Sunnah by teaching her children from a very young age. Have a peaceful and blessed morning! [slm] |
