The ruling on changing one's place after the Fajr prayer and waiting for the sunrise
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: If a person sits after the Fajr prayer waiting for the sunrise, is it better for him to change his place or stay in the same place where he prayed? When does he pray the two rak'ahs? And is it true that the angels seek forgiveness for him?
Answer:
He sits in his place, as in the hadith:Sahih al-Bukhari 848 He remembers Allah the Exalted until the sun rises, then he prays two rak'ahs. This is a complete 'Umrah, complete, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said. So this is what is required: that he remains in his place, that he remembers Allah the Exalted, and that he concludes this with the prayer of two rak'ahs after the sun has risen, so that he may obtain this reward.

Answer:
He sits in his place, as in the hadith:
Narrated Nafi: Ibn Umar used to offer prayers (Nawafil) at the place where he had offered the compulsory prayer. Al-Qasim (bin Muhammad bin Abi Bakr) did the same. The narration coming from Abu Hurairah (from the Prophet (ﷺ)) forbidding the Imam from offering prayers (optional prayer) at the same place where he was offered the compulsory prayer is incorrect.
