Praying Dhuhā prayer every day
Question:
Our Shaykh May Allāh preserve you, is it from the Sunnah to be persistent on the Dhuhā prayer, or do you leave it off sometimes?
Answer:
There is nothing preventing from being persistent upon it and Allāh knows best, due to the Hadith of Abī Dharr on the authority of the Prophet ﷺ;
يُصْبِحُ عَلَى كُلِّ سُلَامَى مِنْ أَحَدِكُمْ صَدَقَةٌ ؛ فَكُلُّ تَسْبِيحَةٍ صَدَقَةٌ، وَكُلُّ تَحْمِيدَةٍ صَدَقَةٌ، وَكُلُّ تَهْلِيلَةٍ صَدَقَةٌ، وَكُلُّ تَكْبِيرَةٍ صَدَقَةٌ، وَأَمْرٌ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ صَدَقَةٌ، وَنَهْيٌ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ صَدَقَةٌ، وَيُجْزِئُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ رَكْعَتَانِ يَرْكَعُهُمَا مِنَ الضُّحَى
In the morning sadaqah is due from every joint of one of you. Every Tasbīhah is sadaqah. Every Tahmīdah is sadaqah, every Tahlīlah is sadaqah, every Takbīrah is sadaqah, enjoining good is sadaqah, forbidding the evil is sadaqah, and two rak’ahs which one prays at Dhuhā suffices all of that.”
