Advice of Scholars - MAKRÛH TIMES FOR SUPEREROGATORY SALÂTS

There are two periods of time in which it is makrûh to perform only supererogatory salât. From dawn till sunrise in the morning no supererogatory other than the sunna of morning prayer should be performed. After performing the late afternoon prayer, it is makrûh to perform any supererogatory prayer within the period between that time and evening prayer. It is makrûh to begin performing the supererogatory, that is, the sunna, when the imâm mounts the minbar on Friday and as the muezzin (or muadhdhin) says the iqâma and while the imâm leads the jamâ’a at any other prayer time; an exception from this is the sunna of morning prayer, which must be performed far behind the lines of jamâ’a or behind a pillar. There are some scholars who say that the sunna which has been started before the imâm mounted the minbar must be completed.

If the sun begins to rise as you are performing morning prayer, the prayer will not be sahîh. If the sun sets as you are performing late afternoon prayer, the prayer will be sahîh. If a person flies towards west by plane after performing evening prayer and if he sees the sun, he must perform the evening prayer again when the sun sets.
