Summary
The fatwa assumes the questioner refers to a hadith reported by al-Tirmidhi on the virtue of praying Fajr in congregation, sitting in remembrance of Allah until sunrise, then praying two rak'ahs, which carries a reward like Hajj and Umrah. Some scholars regard the two rak'ahs as the Ishraq prayer and others as the Duha prayer. Both hadiths show the merit of spending the time after Fajr in the mosque in remembrance of Allah until the sun rises.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Kedua-dua hadis di atas menunjukkan kelebihan pahala bagi orang yang memenuhkan masa selepas solat Subuh dengan iktikaf di masjid dan berzikir kepada Allah SWT sehingga terbitnya matahari.
