The ruling on praying two rak'ahs before Fajr and two rak'ahs before the iqamah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The listener Abu Khalid sent these questions and this set to the program Nur 'ala al-Darb. He says: Shaykh Salih, it is my custom when the Fajr adhan is called to get up, perform wudu', and pray two rak'ahs at home. Then I go to the mosque and pray the sunnah of the mosque, which is also two rak'ahs, until the prayer is established. Is my practice correct? And is it a sunnah to add more than two rak'ahs before the iqamah?
Answer:
If you perform wudu' at home before the time of Fajr enters, then pray whatever is easy for you and conclude it with witr, so that your last prayer of the night is witr, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do. However, if the time of Fajr has entered and the dawn has appeared, and you perform wudu' after the dawn appears, then do not pray except the rawatib of Fajr; do not pray except the rawatib of Fajr, whether you pray it at home or in the mosque, because the time of prohibition has entered.
