Summary
Voluntary prayers with a cause that precedes the prayer are permitted during the prohibited times, such as the wudu prayer, funeral prayer, prostration of recitation and prostration of gratitude. The cause exists before the prayer, for example performing wudu before the wudu prayer. Prayers whose cause comes later, such as the istikharah and ihram prayers, are not permitted and are not valid at those times, as they are treated like prayers with no cause.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Solat sunat yang diharuskan untuk dilaksanakan pada waktu yang diharamkan ialah solat yang sebabnya mendahului solat tersebut.
