The answer

The Duha prayer is legislated when the sun has risen about a spear-length after sunrise. The time of prohibition (for prayer) after sunrise is estimated to be about fifteen minutes. The crucial factor is the entry of the time, not the visible sighting of the sun. A calendar can be used to determine the time of sunrise.
