The Shaykh : There is no second congregation.

The questioner: Yes.
The questioner : I said earlier that there is a difference in the adhan here for the Fajr prayer, twenty-five to thirty minutes, as you said previously, does the dawn appear before the twenty-five minutes?

The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : It appears after, not before.
