ADVANTAGES OF SOLAT DHUHA

ADVANTAGES OF SOLAT DHUHA

 The time of Dhuha begins when the sun is about a spear’s length above the horizon and

it continues until the sun reaches its meridian. Besides that, it preferred to delay it until the sun has risen high a the day has become hot.

The minimum number of 'rakaat' to be prayed is two. The most that the Prophet

(SAW) performed was eight 'rakaat'. Umm Hani narrated that the Prophet (SAW)

prayed eight 'rakaat' of Dhuha and made the taslim after every two 'rakaat'. (Abu Dawud)

After the completion of the prayer, one is recommended to recite the following du’a that are :

According to 'Hadis of Rasulullah SAW' :

When anyone of you awakens in morning, you must give Sadaqah (charity) for every joint (of your body)
Other than that, every 'Tasbih, 'Tahmid' are 'Sadaqah'.

Every 'tasbih' is sadaqah and every 'tahmid' is sadaqah and and every 'tahlil' is sadaqah and every 'takbir' is sadaqah and to enjoin a good action is sadaqah and forbidding an evil action is sadaqah.

Besides that, equal to all of this collectively is (the reward) a person gains from performing 2 'rakaat' at the time of Dhuha (Chaasht).
