What is the ruling on praying when the Maghrib Adhan is delayed in rural areas, and is it permissible to pray before the Adhan or must one wait for the Adhan at the time of twilight, and what should be done when performing the prayer so quickly that tranquility is lost?

Some scholars, such as the Malikis, are of the view that the preferred time for Maghrib prayer is the duration in which it can be performed with its conditions, citing the Hadith of Jibreel who prayed with the Messenger at the same time on both days. The accurate view is that the preferred time extends until the disappearance of the twilight (shafaq), based on the Hadith of Abdullah ibn Amr, which is more authoritative than the Hadith of Jibreel because it is later and contains an addition. Whoever prays Maghrib between sunset and the disappearance of twilight commits no sin, even if they miss the virtue of praying at the beginning of its time. Delaying the adhan from the beginning of the time should not occur, unless the muezzin is afflicted with obsessive doubts. Prayer should not be performed before the adhan and the congregation, and it is not permissible to follow an imam who does not observe the obligatory tranquility (ṭumaʾnīnah), which is a pillar of prayer.
