As-salaam-u-alaikum. I would like to know why some people INSIST on switching on all the lights in the house at the time of Maghrib? Is it a superstition? Jazakallahu-khair

Answer
There is no basis in Shari'ah to switch on all the lights of the house during the time of Maghrib.
If there is no need for the lights, that will be wasting.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
