The Grade of the Hadith on Sitting in the Prayer Place After Fajr and the Reward of a Complete Hajj or 'Umrah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Is the hadith — is the hadith — that says, “Whoever sits in his prayer place after the Fajr prayer and prays two rak'ahs, the reward of a complete Hajj or 'Umrah is recorded for him,” authentic, or is there a discussion about it?
Answer:
It is a strong hadith, if not in the two Sahihs, but it is a strong hadith. It is in the virtues of deeds. It is not required for a hadith in the virtues of deeds, and in encouraging and warning, to be authentic. So, for example, if it were a weak hadith, because the evidence for the remembrance of Allah has come in authentic forms encouraging it, and Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says:[Al-Anfal 8:45].
So it falls under that. And even if it is weak, it falls under the verses that command the remembrance of Allah the Exalted and Majestic. As for this hadith, it is, in my knowledge, a statement where its weakness does not reach the point of being abandoned. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,

وَاذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ كَثِيرًا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَSo it falls under that. And even if it is weak, it falls under the verses that command the remembrance of Allah the Exalted and Majestic.
