About Shaikh (Dr) Haitham Al-Haddad



  1. As-salaamu alaykum,

    Three things please:

    (a) The differences between one time for fajr and the next as we near the time when twilight does not end changes more and more so how did you manage to calculate ‘a time proportional to the increase or decrease of time in the last few days’?

    (b) If we use the earliest time for latitude N48 33′ for fajr why don’t we then use the latest time for Isha which would be 24:55 for the UK, giving 13mins between isha and fajr for the first 2/3s of Ramadan 1435H?

    (c) I welcome this discussion. My only comment would be that I really would like to see a prayer timetable that used the same calculations for all the prayers throughout. However, what I have seen of many is a mix of methods where Fajr is one method and Isha a completely different one. Shouldn’t consistency be applicable throughout?

    JazaakumAllaahu Khayran.

  2. Is it just me, or does it seem as Haitham Haddad is spreading confusion and fitna by trying to re-define prayer times according this his akl and mindset?

    For example, what do you do in Greenland/parts of North Canada where the Sun never sets?
    Simple: following Makkah time, which is most logical and unites everyone.

    The other big fitna and problems due to Haitham’s timetable is that what about those people who want to take advantage of the blessings of staying in masjid between fajr and shurooq (sunrise)?!
    They’ll have to spend hours waiting!
