The best time for fajer i think would be before sunrise, 20, 30 min later or so. My understanding is that if there is a real reason for the delay that canot be controled, you can pray before or later. Is that right?

I have to leave to school catch my bus :sl: so i pray fajer early before it starts does Allah accept it?

Afterall the important thing is to glorify him to love him.

If you were to ask a scholar they would tell you that praying fajr before the time is not valid.

Allah knows best, and Allah forgives whom He wills. I don't think anyone has the right to say whether your prayer is accepted or not.

indeed. Allah checks your intentions. somtimes, things that are out of our control happen. possibly tests sent by Allah to see how sencere you are. Allah asks of us many things, All of which we try our very best to follow. if we are sencere if our repentence, insha'llah he will forgive us.

if we do not know the exact time to do prayers due to lack of knowledge, it is thus our reponsibility to learn so we can fix our errors, that is part of repentance. for example, i still dont know all my salat. i am still learning. this is blameable on me. but i am trying my hardest to learn, and hopefully Allah will forgive me.

as for the bus thing, speak to Allah about your problem. Allah has power over all things and is the best of councilers. reaveal to Allah your problem, and Allah may fix it if he wills it.

i think i see what they mean now. i see a line of "brightnes" in the horizon as i look out the window. fajr on the timer says 6:06 am while it is 6:37 am now and the light seems to be shining.

salam.

i think it is valid.....everything u need to learn is in the quran and hadith...

its valid because you have something important to do....(school) and i believe Allah will accept ur prayer...its the intention in ur heart that counts...but only pray early when u have to

I wouldn't go as far as saying the prayer is valid. If you make a statement like that others will also think it is acceptable to pray fajr before the correct time. It is not acceptable to pray before the actual timing of a prayer.

What I am saying is if there is no other way for her to pray fajr and she insists on praying fajr before it's time then that is between her and Allah.
