About Dhuhr Prayer

Dhuhr is the second of the five daily prayers, prayed in the early afternoon after the sun has passed its zenith. It consists of 4 obligatory rakaat. On Fridays, the Dhuhr prayer is replaced by the congregational Jumu'ah (Friday) prayer, which is obligatory for adult Muslim men.

The Prophet ﷺ encouraged praying Dhuhr promptly at the start of its time: "The best of deeds are those performed consistently, even if small." (Bukhari/Muslim). Regular Dhuhr keeps one mindful of Allah in the busiest part of the working day.
