Regarding the definition of the words “morning”, “noon” and
“evening”, at which times the currently binding medium
Obligatory Prayer is to be recited, Bahá’u’lláh has stated
that these coincide with “sunrise, noon and sunset” (Q and A 83).
He specifies that the “allowable times for Obligatory Prayers are

168
two hours thereafter”. Further, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá has stated that
the morning Obligatory Prayer may be said as early as
dawn.
