The questioner : He also says, Abd al-Rahman Abdulaziz Abdullah Saif: If I come to the Fajr prayer and find that the imam has already stood up for the prayer, and I have not performed the sunnah of Fajr, do I make it up after the prayer or not?
The Shaykh : There are two opinions among the scholars regarding this issue.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : Some hold that it is permissible to make it up after the prayer because it is one of the prayers with a cause, while others hold that it is not made up after the prayer, but rather made up during the day, in the Duha time. So if you wish to make it up after the prayer, there is no blame on you. And if you are confident that you will make it up during the day in the Duha time, that is better and more pure, and it is a way to avoid the disagreement.
