Q: What is the definition of sunrise/shurooq? When the sun slightly appears on the horizon or when the sun completely is visible on the horizon?
A: Sunrise commences from the time the sun begins to rise until the complete ball of the sun becomes visible. Shurooq refers to the time where the sun rises and reaches a point after which it is permissible for one to perform ishraaq salaah. This is generally 15 to 20 minutes after sunrise.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
