Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Salih Abu Afash from Yemen says: I pray the Fajr prayer in the mosque, and sometimes at home, and I wait until the time of the morning light according to the mosque clock, adding ten minutes after the time. Is my action in accordance with the hadith reported on this matter? And what is its virtue? Is this in accordance with the hadith of the Prophet
The Shaykh:
(peace and blessings be upon him), if he sits in his place of prayer until the sun rises and ascends the length of a spear, and prays two rak'ahs, it is like a complete 'Umrah, a complete 'Umrah, yes.
The questioner:
Is it a condition that it be in the mosque, or does it apply to the home or any place?
The Shaykh:
The mosque is better, and if he moves to his home, there is no harm. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh
