Fajr up




The Prophet (SAW) said:
“Whoever prays the fajr prayer in congregation, 
it is as if he (or she) had prayed the whole night long.” 

Now, to show the seriousness of missing this prayer,
we present the Hadith of the Prophet (SAW)
The most burdensome prayers for the hypocrites are Isha and Fajr, 
but if they only knew what they contain, t
hey would come even if they had to crawl.”

The Fajr (dawn) prayer is amongst the most important acts of worship,
being one of the five obligatory prayers.

Unfortunately many of us have become so used to missing it at its prescribed time –
which ends at sunrise –
that we have forgotten its position in our religion,
and barely feel anything is wrong when we wake up for work or school without having performed the fajr prayer.
On the other hand, if one of us was to miss a job interview or a flight,
we all know how disappointed he or she would feel.

Do not let Satan benefit from his actions.
Do not put off a good that you intended to do
as you never know how much reward you might receive from the hardships you encounter
while trying to achieve that good.
