Book 10: Call to Prayers (Adhaan)

Chapter 31 Superiority of the Fajr (early morning) prayer in congregation.
باب فَضْلِ صَلاَةِ الْفَجْرِ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ
Sahih al-Bukhari 648

Narrated Abu Salama bin `Abdur Rahman:

Abu Huraira said, “I heard Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) saying, ‘The reward of a prayer in congregation is twenty
five times greater than that of a prayer offered by a person alone. The angels of the night and the
angels of the day gather at the time of Fajr prayer.’ ” Abu Huraira then added, “Recite the Holy Book
if you wish, for “Indeed, the recitation of the Qur’an in the early dawn (Fajr prayer) is ever witnessed.”
(17:78).

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيَّبِ، وَأَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏”‏ تَفْضُلُ صَلاَةُ الْجَمِيعِ صَلاَةَ أَحَدِكُمْ وَحْدَهُ بِخَمْسٍ وَعِشْرِينَ جُزْءًا، وَتَجْتَمِعُ مَلاَئِكَةُ اللَّيْلِ وَمَلاَئِكَةُ النَّهَارِ فِي صَلاَةِ الْفَجْرِ ‏”‏‏.‏ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ فَاقْرَءُوا إِنْ شِئْتُمْ ‏[quran sura=”17″ aya_start=”78″ aya_end=”78″]{‏إِنَّ قُرْآنَ الْفَجْرِ كَانَ مَشْهُودًا‏}‏
