The two rak'ahs of Salaat al-Fajr
and Tahayyatul-Masjid
*Please appropriately reference
this fatwa to: www.fatwa-online.com, thankyou!*
Question: Do the two (sunnah)
rak'ahs
of Salaat
al-Fajr suffice in place of the (two rak'ahs
of) tahayyatul-masjid? And if a person was to perform both
the (two rak'ahs
of) tahayyatul-masjid and the two (sunnah) rak'ahs
of Salaat
al-Fajr, has he sinned?
Response: The two (sunnah)
rak'ahs
of Salaat
al-Fajr suffice for itself as well as the (two rak'ahs
of) tahayyatul-masjid; and this is better and preferred. And
if he performed the (two rak'ahs
of) tahayyatul-masjid first and then the two (sunnah) rak'ahs
of Salaat
al-Fajr, then there is no harm (in having done this).
And with Allaah lies all success,
and may Allaah send prayers and salutations upon our Prophet
Muhammad and his family and his noble companions.
