The ruling on a worshipper remaining in his place of prayer until the sun rises
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Is it obligatory for the worshipper to remain in the place where he prayed Fajr until the sun rises? And what if there is an intervening matter, such as going to the university, or an urgent matter that arises for him while he desires the reward? But this urgent matter presents itself to him at this time?
Sitting in the place of the Fajr prayer until the sun rises and then praying two rak'ahs is not obligatory, but it is a recommended practice (sunnah) that is encouraged. So if an obligatory duty conflicts with it, or if something better than it conflicts with it, such as seeking knowledge, let him go to what is better.So if someone were to say: Which is better: that I sit in my place in the mosque until the sun rises and pray two rak'ahs, or that I go to a circle of knowledge in another mosque?We said: Going to a circle of knowledge is better, and so is the university. If the university lessons are lessons of Islamic sacred law (Shari'ah), they are better than remaining in your place of prayer until the sun rises.
