Praise be to Allah
Firstly:
Salaat al-ishraaq is a two-rak'ah prayer that is offered after the sun
has risen and become high, for those who pray Fajr in congregation in
the mosque, then sit in the place where they prayed, remembering
Allah, may He be exalted, until they pray two rak'ahs.
Concerning its virtue, the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be
upon him) said: "Whoever prays Fajr in congregation, then sits
remembering Allah until the sun rises, then prays two rak'ahs, will
have a reward like that of Hajj and 'Umrah, complete, complete,
complete."
Narrated by at-Tirmidhi (586), from Anas ibn Maalik (may Allah be
pleased with him).
There is a difference of scholarly opinion as to the soundness of this
hadeeth. It was classed as da'eef (weak) by some scholars and classed
as hasan (good) by others. Among those who classed it as hasan was
al-Albaani (may Allah have mercy on him) inSaheeh Sunan at-Tirmidhi.
Shaykh Ibn Baaz (may Allah have mercy on him) was asked about it and
said: This hadeeth has isnaads that are fine, thus it is regarded as
coming under the heading of hasan because of corroborating evidence.
This prayer is mustahabb after the sun has risen and reached the
height of a spear, that is approximately fifteen or twenty minutes
after the sun rises.
End quote fromFataawa ash-Shaykh Ibn Baaz, 25/171
Secondly:
This prayer is mustahabb (encouraged), not obligatory, and it comes
under the heading of Duha prayer, because the time for Duha prayer
lasts from when the sun has risen high until just before the zenith
(the time of Zuhr).
With regard to Duha prayer being Sunnah and mustahabb, it was narrated
by al-Bukhaari (1178) and Muslim (721) that Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be
pleased with him) said: My beloved (blessings and peace of Allah be
upon him) advised me to do three things, which I will not forsake so
long as I live: to fast three days of each month, to pray Duha, and
not to sleep until I pray Witr.
Shaykh Ibn 'Uthaymeen (may Allah be pleased with him) was asked about
Ishraaq and Duha prayer, and replied: The Sunnah of Ishraaq is (the
same as) the Sunnah of Duha, but if it is done early, from the time
when the sun has risen to the height of a spear, then it is Ishraaq
prayer; if it is done at the end of its time or in the middle of its
time, then it is Duha prayer. But it is (all) Duha prayer, because the
scholars (may Allah be pleased with them) said that the time of Duha
prayer lasts from when the sun has risen to the height of a spear
until just before the zenith.
