f:999 -    What to do if time for Salaat Ul Fajr starts when offering Salaat Ul Tahajjud
Country : India,
Name : Muhammad Abdullah
Question:     I offer Tahajjud regularly during my exams. Once, I got up late and when I was offering Tahajjud, my elder brother called out to me that I should break my Salaat as the time for Fajr had started.  What should I have done?
............................................................................
Answer:     If Tahajjud or some other supererogatory Salaat is being offered in the last part of the night and after offering 1 Raka’at, the time for Salaat Ul Fajr starts, then it is better to complete the whole Salaat (i.e. 2 Raka’at).  This supererogatory Salaat will not be considered to be the Sunnah of Salaat Ul Fajr.  It will have to be offered separately.  As mentioned in Fatawa A’alamgiri, Kitab Us Salaat.

And Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) knows best.
