Is it permissible to pray `Isha

Q 2: Is it permissible to make Al-Baqiyat Al-Salihat between the two combined Prayers, for example Maghrib (Sunset) Prayer and `Isha' (Night) Prayer?

A: It is Mashru` (Islamically acceptable) that the two combined Prayers can only be separated by minor acts like the performance of Wudu' (ablution). Thus, voluntary prayers should not be offered between the combined Maghrib and `Isha' Prayers. However, if the questioner is referring to the noble Hadith: Al-Baqiyat Al-Salihat 'the enduring good deeds' are a servant's saying 'Allah is greater' (Allahu akbar) and 'Glory be to Allah' (Subahana'llah) and 'Praise be to Allah' (al-hamdu lillah) and 'There is no god but Allah and there is no power and no strength except by Allah.' La ilaha illa'llah wa la hawla wa la quwwata illa bi'llah. , these can be said between the two combined Maghrib and `Isha' Prayers. (Part No. 8; Page No. 142) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
