Question
What is the position of Salaat which one begins in the valid time but terminates after the expiry of the time?
Answer
If the sun begins to rise while Fajr Salaat is being performed, it (Fajr) will not be valid regardless of what rukn one may be in. If the sun sets whilst performing Asr of that specific day, the Asr will be valid. But, if the procrastination to this time was due to carelessness, then one is guilty of a major sin for having performed Asr in the defective time. If Zuhr, Maghrib and Isha are performed whilst the time is expiring, these Salaat will be valid.
