Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Some people sit after the Fajr prayer and then pray the two rak'ahs of the sun's rising at the time the sun rises. He asks: Is this act prescribed?
Answer:
There is no prayer for the sun's rising, my brother. This is the Duha prayer. The Duha prayer is at least two rak'ahs and at most eight. When the sun has risen, it is said to be like a spearhead, then he prays the Duha prayer.
