About Dhuhr Prayer
Dhuhr is the second daily prayer, prayed in the early afternoon after the sun has passed its zenith. On Fridays, Dhuhr is replaced by the congregational Jumu'ah prayer.
The Prophet ﷺ encouraged praying Dhuhr promptly at the start of its time. Regular Dhuhr keeps one mindful of Allah during the busiest part of the day.
