English term or phrase: Time out of time
I've googled and looked around but unable to find its match in Malay. Sample is as per below:

Time out of time:
You have 5 minutes of planning time
Talking is allowed during planning
No writing on puzzles or envelopes
Nor Afizah
Malaysia
Local time: 01:12
Masa (di) luar tempoh
Explanation:

This being a heading/sub-heading of sort (and to match the source text), I would go for the simplest and briefest rendition.

Per context, time out of time simply means time besides/outside of an allocated time frame.

Explanation:
"time-out-of-time" =
1. An imaginary period; a period that is unrelated to real events in the past, present or future. (This seems to be the meaning according to the book.)
2. A time during which the narrator is dreaming or otherwise unconscious of the present/reality.

Example sentence(s):
  • it only says that mukundaram's theme took place in a time-out-of-time, whereas the other one took place at a precise timeframe, that is before the turkish period of bengal.

time out of time
rancang kesuntukan masa


Explanation:
There is no direct translation from English to Malay for this. You need to translate it by meaning.
Time out of time = To time (arrange time/plan), in order to avoid lack of time (or not enough time).
So, in Malay = atur masa bagi mengelakkan kesuntukan masa = rancang kesuntukan masa
