923. hadíth

925 - وَ سَأَلَ يَحْيَى بْنُ أَكْثَمَ اَلْقَاضِي أَبَا اَلْحَسَنِ اَلْأَوَّلَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنْ صَلاَةِ اَلْفَجْرِ لِمَ يُجْهَرُ فِيهَا بِالْقِرَاءَةِ وَ هِيَ مِنْ صَلَوَاتِ اَلنَّهَارِ وَ إِنَّمَا يُجْهَرُ فِي صَلاَةِ اَللَّيْلِ فَقَالَ «لِأَنَّ اَلنَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ كَانَ يُغَلِّسُ بِهَا فَقَرَّبَهَا مِنَ اَللَّيْلِ.

Hadith.925 - Yahya ibn Aktham asked Abu Al-Hasan al-Awwal (as) about the Fajr prayer and why it is recited aloud even though it is one of the daytime prayers, while generally only nighttime prayers are recited aloud. Imam (as) replied: "This is because The Prophet (sw) would offer it at the break of dawn, making it close to the nighttime."
