Performing the Mosque Greeting Prayer at Disliked Times

Question
Is it permissible to perform the Mosque Greeting Prayer at the disliked times for prayer? And what about circumambulating the Kaaba?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: It is disliked to perform the two rak'ahs of the mosque greeting during the disliked times after the Fajr prayer and the Asr prayer; because they are voluntary prayers, and voluntary prayers are disliked during these times. However, it is not disliked to perform Tawaf during these times, and God knows best.
