Question 1

Can I make up Dhuhr if I miss it or forget to pray on time?

Accepted Answer

Yes, making up a missed Dhuhr prayer is an obligation. If you miss it unintentionally due to a valid reason like sleeping or forgetting, the Prophet's ﷺ teaching is a mercy from Allah: you must pray it as soon as you remember. However, if a prayer was missed intentionally in the past, this is considered a major sin that requires sincere repentance (Tawbah) to Allah. Along with repenting, the overwhelming majority of scholars affirm that you must also make up the missed prayer. The most important thing is not to let a mistake lead to despair. Turn back to Allah, perform the prayer you missed, and make a firm commitment to guard your prayers on time in the future, as Allah loves those who repent and return to Him.

Question 2

When exactly does Dhuhr prayer start and end in Masqat?

Accepted Answer

Dhuhr begins right after the sun passes its highest point in the sky and lasts until the time of Asr. The exact times change daily based on the sun’s position, so checking your local prayer times in Masqat is the best way to stay accurate. You have a wide window to pray, but it’s always best to perform it early when the day still feels calm and bright.

Question 3

How can I pray Dhuhr during a busy workday without feeling rushed?

Accepted Answer

The beauty of Dhuhr is that it doesn’t take long—just a few minutes of real connection. Try scheduling it like any important meeting or reminder in your phone. If you can’t find a prayer room, look for a quiet corner, even your car. What matters is intention. When you make that small effort in Masqat, Allah makes it easy and blesses your time more than you’d expect.

Question 4

How do I find a quiet place to pray Dhuhr at work or during my day in Masqat?

Accepted Answer

You’d be surprised how many small, peaceful spaces exist when you start looking. A quiet conference room, a park bench, or even your parked car can become a prayer space. The Prophet ﷺ said, ‘The whole earth has been made a place of prayer.’ So wherever you are in Masqat, you can make that spot sacred just by standing in it for Dhuhr.
