Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: What is the first dawn and what is the second dawn, and how do we distinguish between them?
Answer:
They said that the first dawn is the one followed by darkness. Its characteristic is also that it is elongated in the sky, like a pillar in the sky, and then darkness follows it. As for the second dawn, it is the horizontal whiteness; it is not vertical, it is horizontal, and darkness does not follow it.
