Is it permissible to pray in congregation one or two hours after the Adhan?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
There is no harm in delaying congregational prayer by an hour or two, as long as its time has not expired. However, it is preferable to hasten to perform it at the beginning of its time, with the exception of the 'Isha prayer, for which it is preferable to delay it.
