The Sunnah and the Fajr prayer: Does one hasten to perform them after the adhan, or wait for a period of time?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Seconds.

The Shaykh : And upon you be peace.

The questioner : Shaykh, regarding the Sunnah of Fajr, we heard that it is safer not to hasten to perform it immediately after the adhan.

The Shaykh : The Sunnah of Fajr or the obligatory prayer? Because the mu'adhdhins now call to prayer based on calculation, and they call based on the sighting, since they are unable to see the dawn.

The questioner : And how much is the precaution, Shaykh?

The Shaykh : I mean, five minutes, ten minutes, or something like that.

The presenter : May Allah reward you with good, Shaykh. And you as well. Peace be upon you. Peace be upon you and Allah's mercy.
