Can You Pray Fajr 5 Minutes Before Zuhr...?

I was just wondering.

Is it possible to pray Fajr 5 minutes before Zuhr...

Similarly, can you pray Maghrib 5 minutes before Isha (even if the sun has set)

And please provide a Hadeeth/Aya to verify/support your answer.

Thank-You

(Happy Holidays)

    Fajr must be prayed before sunrise.

    End of Fajr and Maghrib prayer times

    You can pray it five minutes before dhohr provided you understand you are praying it late and making it up. the time for fajr is in the morning before sunrise. Shi'a combine dhohr and asr and combine maghrib and isha. Sunnis do not unless they are travelling. Even when travelling fajr is before sunrise.

    This is not something where you say show me a hadith or show me Qur`an. This is something where you just ask a Muslim for the right way and then follow. If you want to make a new religion different from what everyone else is doing that is different.

    no. time of Fajar is till the sunrise.

    the moment sun rises Fajar time is finished.

    in case of Magrib you can pray 5 min before Isha because when Magrib time ends Isha time starts but its better to offer Magrib early.

    no as the brother said. each prayer must be prayed on its specified time. unless some one is travelling in that case they may join prayers zuhr and 'asr and maghrib and isha.
