Ruling on praying the Sunnah of Fajr after the Iqamah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: A man in the Shaykh’s congregation sometimes comes to the mosque after the Iqamah for the Fajr prayer. Does he pray the Sunnah of Fajr? And what if he missed it? If the prayer has been called for

Answer:
It is not permissible for a man to enter into anything other than the obligatory prayer, based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
When the Iqamah has been called for the Salat then there is no Salat exceptإذا أقيمت الصلاة فلا صلاة إلا
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 421Sahih (Darussalam)
the obligatory one. So if he comes for the Fajr prayer or any other prayer and the prayer is being established, he joins them in the obligatory prayer and makes up the rawatib after the obligatory prayer, such as the rawatib of Fajr, which he makes up after the prayer. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw a man praying after the Fajr prayer, so he asked him, and he said, “I did not come for the rawatib of Fajr,” so he (peace and blessings be upon him) left him as he was. And if he delays it until the sun rises, he prays it after the sun rises, and that is better. Yes.
