Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What is the reward for sitting until the sun rises? And is it established that the angels seek forgiveness for the one who sits until the sun rises?
Answer:
The angels seek forgiveness for the one who sits waiting for the prayer. Whoever sits in the mosque waiting for the prayer is in a state of prayer, and the angels seek forgiveness for him. As for sitting until sunrise to remember Allah the Exalted, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) informed that it is equivalent to a complete 'Umrah or a complete Hajj. So in it is a great virtue.
