213. Is It Necessary To Sit In Your Place After Fajr Salaah In Order To pray Salaatul Ishraaq

By Asma Bint Shameem

No it’s not necessary to sit in your place after Fajr Salaah in order for you to pray Salaatul Ishraaq. 

Rather the hadeeth that mentions that, is talking about a *specific reward* that a person receives when he or she prays Fajr in congregation then remains sitting until after sunrise. 

The Prophet sal Allaahu Alayhi wa sallam said:
 “Whoever prays Fajr in congregation then sits remembering Allaah until the sun rises, then prays two rak’ahs, will have a reward like that of Hajj and ‘Umrah, complete, complete, complete.” 
[al-Tirmidhi (586) ; hasan by Al-Albaani]

So a person can still read Salaatul Ishraaq even if he doesn’t sit in his place from Fajr till sunrise. 

Rather this particular reward of Hajj and Umrah is achieved if a person remains sitting from Fajr till sunrise. 

And Allaah knows best
