Is it permissible for a Muslim to involve in pleasure by continuing to watch an entertaining movie even, though salat time is due, and then he goes to say his prayers just before it becomes overdue (qadha)?
Answer
A great amount of Thawab (rewards) will be lost for not praying at its preferred time, and it is not appropriate for a Muslim to delay the saying of Salat from its preferred time (i.e., at the beginning of its time span) except for an excuse; as long as he performs his prayer during the time allocated his prayer is not Qadha.
