RADARSOLO.COM – The Dhuha prayer is one of the sunnah prayers that has great merit, one of which is believed to be a practice that opens the doors of sustenance.
Muslims can perform the Dhuha prayer starting in the morning, namely when the sun starts to rise at around 7 cubits or 07.00 until before the time for the midday prayer.
However, there is a more important time. That is when the hot sun feels hot.
In fiqh, the priority of the Dhuha prayer time is termed with the formula: ‘after a quarter of noon’ (calculated from the beginning of Fajr).

Reporting from NU Online, the main time for Dhuha prayers is around 09.00.
This is as in the hadith narrated by Imam Muslim
On the authority of Zaid bin Arqam, may God be pleased with him: He saw a people praying in the afternoon, so he said: Did they not know that praying at other than this hour is better? The Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, said: The prayer of those who return to prayer when the rain is wet. (Narrated by Muslim)
It means:
“It was narrated from Zaid bin Arqam, may Allah be pleased with him, that he once saw a group of people performing Dhuha prayers, then he said: ‘Don’t you know that prayer at this time is more important? Indeed, Rasulullah ﷺ said: ‘The prayer of the awwâbîn (Dhuha prayer) is when the feet of young camels feel the heat of the earth because of the hot sun’” (HR Muslim; see Abu Zakariya Yahya bin Syaraf an-Nawawi, Syarhun Nawawi ‘alâ Shahîh Muslim, [Bairut, Dâr Ihyâ’it Turâtsil ‘Arabi, 1292 H]juz VI: 30).
