The answer

In the lexicon of Arabs, "al-Dhahirah" (midday) refers to thehigh point of the day when the heat is intense and the sun is directly overhead. It is not used to describe winter. Al-Nawawi states that "al-Dhahirah" is when the sun is at its zenith, meaning there is no longer a shadow for a standing person. Ibn Hajar said that "al-Dhahirah" is midday and the time when the shadow or the standing person casts no shadow, all of which alludes to the sun being at its zenith in the middle of the sky.
