Is it permissible for a girl to delay Dhuhr prayer until the end of its time due to sleep, whether that is to make up for previous sleep that inconvenienced the parents, or for the purpose of continuous sleep for bodily rest and to increase ability to work and concentrate? And does she sin in both cases? And does honoring parents outweigh the fear of death before prayer if she intends to wake up later?

Initiating prayer at the beginning of its prescribed time is superior, but it is permissible to delay it until the end of its time, as long as it does not exceed the legally defined period. The proof for this is that Jibreel prayed with the Prophet (peace be upon him) at the beginning of the time and at its end, and then said: "What is between these two is all time."

However, intentionally delaying prayer without a legitimate excuse until its preferred time has passed and the time of necessity has begun is considered a sin. Nevertheless, the prayer is still considered performed (ada') and not made up (qada').
