Praise be to Allaah.
Fajr prayer is subh prayer - there is no difference between them. It
consists of two rak'ahs. The time for this prayer starts when the true
dawn begins, and lasts until the sun rises. There is a prayer that
comes before it, consisting of two rak'ahs, which is known as the
Sunnah of subh or the two rak'ahs of Fajr.
The phrasessalaat al-subhandsalaat al-fajrare both used in the Sunnah
to refer to this prayer, such as the report narrated by Muslim (656)
from 'Abd al-Rahmaan ibn Abi 'Amrah who said: 'Uthmaan ibn 'Affaan
entered the mosque after Maghrib prayer and sat by himself. I sat
beside him and he said: O son of my brother, I heard the Messenger of
Allaah(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) say: "Whoever prays
'Isha' in congregation, it is as if he spent half the night in prayer,
and whoever prays Subh (Fajr) in congregation, it is as if he spent
the entire night in prayer."
Al-Bukhaari (556) and Muslim (608) narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may
Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah(peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "If one of you catches up with
a rak'ah of 'Asr prayer before the sun sets, let him complete his
prayer, and if he catches up with a rak'ah of Subh (Fajr) prayer
before the sun rises, let him complete his prayer."
As for calling it Fajr prayer, Muslim (670) narrated from Jaabir ibn
Samurah that when the Prophet(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon
him) prayed Fajr he would sit in the place where he had prayed until
the sun was well risen.
And al-Bukhaari (891) and Muslim (880) narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may
Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Prophet(peace and blessings of
Allaah be upon him) used to recite in Jumu'ah and in Fajr
prayer,"Alif-Laam-Meem. The revelation of the Book... " [Soorat
al-Sajdah, no. 32]and"Has there not been over man a period of time"
[Soorat al-Dahr, no. 76].
And al-Bukhaari (555) and Muslim (632) narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may
Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah(peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Angels come to you in
succession by night and by day, and they meet at Fajr prayer and at
'Asr prayer, then those who stayed among you ascend and He (Allaah)
asks them, although He knows best, 'How did you leave My slaves?' They
say: 'We left them when they were praying and we came to them when
they were praying.'"And Allaah knows best.
