The Shaykh : That he interrupts it, even if he was [in the second rak'ah]. The Messenger [of Allah] said:
The morning is four. آلصبح أربعا
This indicates that it was in the first rak'ah, because if it had been in the second rak'ah, he would have said, "Is the Fajr prayer three [rak'ahs]?" It is not possible for the Fajr prayer to be four [rak'ahs] unless it was before the iqamah and he was in the first rak'ah.
