Five daily prayers
The five daily prayers are obligatory (
fard) and they are performed at times determined essentially by the position of the Sun in the sky. Hence, salat times vary at different locations on the Earth.
Wudu is needed for all of the prayers.
Fajr (dawn)
Main article:
Fajr prayer
Fajr begins at
subh saadiq -- true
dawn or the beginning of twilight, when the morning light appears across the full width of the sky -- and ends at sunrise.
Dhuhr (midday)
Main article:
Zuhr prayer
The time interval for offering the Zuhr or Dhuhr namaz timing starts after the sun passes its
zenith and lasts until 20 min (approx) before the call for the Asr prayer is to be given. There is thus a long period of time within which this prayer can be offered, but people usually make their prayer within two hours after the Azan has been announced from Mosque.[
according to whom?][
clarification needed] This prayer needs to be given in the middle of the work-day, and people normally make their prayers during their lunch break.
Shia differs regarding end of zuhr time. Per all major Jafari jurists, end of dhuhr time is about 10 minutes before sunset, the time that belongs exclusively to asr prayer. Dhuhr and asr time overlaps, apart from first 5 minutes of dhuhr, which is exclusively delegated for it. Asr prayer cannot be offered before zuhr in the zuhr time.
Asr (afternoon)
Main article:
Asr prayer
The Asr prayer starts when the shadow of an object is the same length as the object itself (or, according to
Hanafi school, twice its length)[

Shia (Jafari madhab) differs regarding start of asr time. Per all major Jafari jusrists[
citation needed], start of asr time is about 5 minutes after the time of sun passing through zenith, that time belongs exclusively to dhuhr prayer. Time for dhuhr and asr prayers overlap, but the zuhr prayer must be offered before asr, except the time about 10 minutes before sunset, which is delegated exclusively to asr. In the case that the mentioned time is reached, asr prayer should be offered first (ada - on time) and dhuhr (kada - make up, late) prayer should be offered after asr.
Maghrib (sunset)
Main article:
Maghrib prayer
The Maghrib prayer begins when the sun sets, and lasts until the red light has left the sky in the west.
Isha (night)Edit
Main article:
The Isha'a or isha prayer starts when the red light is gone from the western sky, and lasts until the rise of the "white light" (fajr sadiq) in the east. The preferred time for Isha is before midnight, meaning halfway between sunset and sunrise.
