ุฃูุนูุฏู ุงูุชูููููููุฑู ููู ุฃููููููููููุงุชูู!
The Prophet ๏ทบ said:
((ุฑูุนุชุง ุงููุฌุฑ ุฎูุฑ ู
ู ุงูุฏููุง ูู
ุง ูููุง))
โThe two voluntary units of Fajr are better than the Dunyฤ and everything within it.โ
[Muslim]
Upon reading this แธฅadฤซth, one might assume that these two rakโahs are long and tiresome. On the contrary, ฤโishah โmay Allฤh be pleased with herโ said:
ููุตููููู ุฑูููุนูุชููู ุงููููุฌูุฑูุ ุฅูุฐูุง ุณูู
ูุนู ุงูุฃูุฐูุงููุ ููููุฎููููููููู
ูุง ุญูุชููู ุฃูููููู: ูููู ููุฑูุฃู ูููููู
ูุง ุจูุฃูู
ูู ุงููููุฑูุขููุ
โHe ๏ทบ would offer the two voluntary units of Fajr after hearing the adhฤn, and he would shorten them so much that I would ask myself: did he even recite al-Fฤtiแธฅah in them?โ
[Bukhฤrฤซ & Muslim]
If this is the virtue and excellence of these two short voluntary prayers, then what about standing for long periods in order to offer the night prayer?
The Prophet ๏ทบ said:
((ุฃูุถู ุงูุตูุงุฉ ุจุนุฏ ุงููุฑูุถุฉ ุตูุงุฉ ุงูููู))
โThe best prayer after the obligatory prayer is the night prayer.โ [Muslim]
This means that the night prayer โwith one rakโah being the minimumโ is better than the two voluntary units of Fajr.
This แธฅadฤซth also shows that the obligatory prayers are superior to both the two voluntary units of Fajr and the night prayer.
The point I am trying to make is that many people have their priorities muddled. It has become so confused that a person may pray โIshฤ at home but make sure to be in the front row for Tarฤwฤซแธฅ. Likewise, some prioritise Tahajjud โespecially during the last ten nightsโ over the Fajr congregation, to the extent that they become so tired and sluggish after Tahajjud that they sleep through Fajr.
Be mindful of this!
