The questioner: There is a hadith that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and Bilal, meaning they were late for the Fajr prayer, so they stood up when the sun rose and delayed the prayer until the sun had risen the length of two spears or something like that, is that in the hadith?
The Shaykh: Yes, it is.
The questioner: They delayed the Fajr prayer, meaning after the sun had risen the length of two spears, or did they pray it immediately?
