Duha, a voluntary prayer is recommended act to perform. It starts after sunrise until 10 mins before zuhr. Hazrat Abu Hurairah reported:
My friend (the Prophet (ﷺ) ) advised me to observe three things: (1) to fast three days a month; (2) to pray two rak`at of Duha prayer (forenoon prayer); and (3) to pray witr before sleeping.
Sahih Bukhari 1981.
Although it starts after sunrise, it is preferred to perform it when the sun has became hot, enough that the weaned camel could feel the heat.
Zaid b. Arqam, on seeing some people praying in the forenoon, said:
They well know that prayer at another time than this is more excellent, for Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: The prayer of those who are penitent is observed when your weaned camels feel the heat of the sun.
Sahih Muslim 748a
Since voluntary prayers will be made up for our prayers if they are not compteled, on Day of Judgment. it is better that we try perform duha and other voluntary prayers such as Tahajjud.
