What is the ruling on making salah in the dark, where you can't even
see your own hands?
Praise be to Allaah.
If the conditions of prayer are fulfilled and the essential parts or
pillars of the prayer are completed, then the prayer is valid. Light
is not an essential condition of prayer or an obligatory part of the
prayer. But if the darkness is a cause of fear which disturbs a person
to the point that he cannot have the necessary presence of mind and
humility (khushoo') in prayer, then it is makrooh for him to pray in
the dark.
