`Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) reported:
The Prophet (PBUH) used to perform two Rak`ah short
prayer between the Adhan (call to prayer) and the Iqamah of the dawn (Fajr) prayers
.
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
In another narration, `Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) said:
The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) used to
perform two supererogatory Rak`ah prayer of Fajr and make them so short in duration that I used to think whether
he (PBUH) had recited Surat Al-Fatihah (in it) or not
.
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
In the narration of Muslim, `Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) said:
When the Messenger of Allah (PBUH)
used to hear the Adhan (of Fajr prayer) he would perform two supererogatory Rak`ah prayer and would make them
short
.
Commentary:
"
Takhfif
'' here means that the Prophet (PBUH) used to shorten the standing, recitation, bowing,
prostration, etc., in the two Rak`ah of Fajr prayer because soon after performing them he had to lead the Fajr prayer
in which he would prolong his recitation. He would also offer these two Sunnah soon after the daybreak or Adhan,
which gives an idea of the preparation he made for them.

Hafsah (May Allah be pleased with her) reported:
The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) used to perform two short
Rak`ah prayer when it was dawn and the Mu'adhdhin had called Adhan (for the Fajr prayer)
.
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
Commentary:
This Hadith tells us that the two Rak`ah of Fajr prayer should be performed after the daybreak not
before it. One should also be brief in these two Rak`ah so that he is active and alert for performing the Fard
(
obligatory prayer
).

Ibn `Umar (May Allah be pleased with them) reported:
The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) used to perform his
optional night prayers at night, two Rak`ah followed by two Rak`ah, and at the end he would conclude with an odd
Rak`ah (Witr). Then he would perform two Rak`ah prayer before the dawn (Fajr) prayer after hearing the Adhan,
and he would make them so brief as if he could hear the Iqamah being called
.
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
Commentary:
"
As if he could hear the Iqamah being called
'' here means that he would hasten the two Rak`ah of
Fajr prayer to the point that one had the impression that he was hearing the voice of Iqamah and he was making
haste for fear of missing of the Salat.
This Hadith also makes the following three points:
1.The optional prayer of the night should be offered in a series of two Rak`ah.
2.One Rak`ah of Witr is also correct.
3.The Sunnah of Fajr prayer should be offered soon after the Adhan, and one should be brief in them.
