Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: The lesson begins immediately after the Fajr prayer. Is it better to attend the lesson, or to wait until I finish the post-prayer dhikr?
Answer:
Attending the lesson is better than engaging in the dhikr, because the lesson contains knowledge and benefit, and the dhikr can be performed after the lesson ends. Yes, or you can start it before the Fajr prayer. If Fajr breaks, you can perform the dhikr before the iqamah. There is no harm in that, because Fajr is the beginning of the day. And if the lesson begins, your attendance at the lesson is better than tawaf and better than reciting the Qur'an, because those have another time and are not missed, unlike the lesson, which is missed.
