I think i got...Nafils prayer is same as you do for Fajr prayer. Only differ between both prayer is Nafil is extra prayer...so if want to pray Nafil prayer you can pray anytime is not require to you. However, Fajr prayer is require (you have to pray).

Expertise

I can answer questions on what is permissible and what is not permissible, as well as questions on Middle Eastern politics, "Islamic culture", questions on Ramadan and fasting, questions for converts new and alike, and questions on hijab. I will not answer sexual-related questions, so please do not send them my way. I will answer every question to the best of my abilities (InshAllah), and if I cannot answer a question, I will send you to someone else.

Experience

My experience is simply being a Muslim myself. I believe that no one is an "expert" in Islam except God, but that as Muslims, we are obligated to share our experiences and our wisdom with other brothers and sisters, and therefore through study of the Qu'ran and Sunnah, we can learn about our Maker and pass it on! InshAllah!

Education/Credentials
I am currently in high school, although I will be graduating soon, and after that I will be going to college to get my bachelors in Hospitality Management. I do not have any specific credentials in the area of Islam.

Past/Present Clients
My friends and fellow brothers and sisters, as well as my family, who has endured the long talks of my religion, and strangers out in public who ask questions, or who call me a "terroist" or "towel head" and I have to correct them for the sake of Allah.
