Which is better, the Fajr sunnah or the night sunnah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: The question is, which is better, the Fajr sunnah or the night sunnah?

Answer:
The Fajr sunnah is more emphasized; it is the most emphasized of the rawatib (the regular voluntary prayers attached to the obligatory ones). The night prayer has great virtue, but there is a difference between them: this one is among the rawatib, and that one is among the tahajjud (the late-night voluntary prayer). The Fajr sunnah is more emphasized, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not leave it, whether resident or traveling.
