رَوَى عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَطِيَّةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «اَلْفَجْرُ هُوَ اَلَّذِي إِذَا رَأَيْتَهُ كَانَ مُعْتَرِضاً كَأَنَّهُ بَيَاضُ نَهَرِ سُورَى.
Ali ibn Atiyyah narrated from Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام that He said: "The true Fajr (dawn) is the one that, when you see it, appears spread out horizontally, like the whiteness of the Surā river."
- Ṣaḥīḥ al-Faqīh
وَ رُوِيَ: «أَنَّ وَقْتَ اَلْغَدَاةِ إِذَا اِعْتَرَضَ اَلْفَجْرُ فَأَضَاءَ حَسَناً.
It has been narrated: "The time of Fajr (morning prayer) begins when the true dawn appears and spreads light horizontally in a good way”.

وَ رَوَى عَمَّارُ بْنُ مُوسَى اَلسَّابَاطِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: «تَقُولُ إِذَا طَلَعَ اَلْفَجْرُ: اَلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ فَالِقِ اَلْإِصْبَاحِ سُبْحَانَ اَللَّهِ رَبِّ اَلْمَسَاءِ وَ اَلصَّبَاحِ اَللَّهُمَّ صَبِّحْ آلَ مُحَمَّدٍ بِبَرَكَةٍ وَ عَافِيَةٍ وَ سُرُورٍ وَ قُرَّةِ عَيْنٍ اَللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ تُنْزِلُ بِاللَّيْلِ وَ اَلنَّهَارِ مَا تَشَاءُ فَأَنْزِلْ عَلَيَّ وَ عَلَى أَهْلِ بَيْتِي مِنْ بَرَكَةِ اَلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَ اَلْأَرْضِ رِزْقاً حَلاَلاً طَيِّباً وَاسِعاً تُغْنِينِي بِهِ عَنْ جَمِيعِ خَلْقِكَ.
Ammaar ibn Musa al-Sabati narrated from Imam Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام who said: "When the Fajr (dawn) rises, say: Alḥamdu lillāhi Fāliqi al-Iṣbāḥ, subḥāna Allāhi Rabbi al-masā’i wa aṣ-ṣabāḥ. Allahumma ṣabbiḥ āla Muḥammad bi-barakatin wa ‘āfiyatin wa surūrin wa qurrati ‘ayn. Allahumma innaka tunzilu bil-layli wa an-nahār mā tashā’, fa-anzil ‘alayya wa ‘ala ahl baytī min barakati as-samāwāti wa al-arḍi rizqan ḥalālan ṭayyiban wāsi‘an tughnīnī bihi ‘an jamī‘i khalqik. 'Praise be to Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Splitter of the dawn! Glory be to Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Lord عز وجل of evening and morning! O’ Allah سبحانه وتعالى, bless the family of Muhammad with blessing, health, joy, and a source of comfort. O’ Allah سبحانه وتعالى, You send down at night and during the day whatever You will, so send upon me and my family from the blessings of the heavens and the earth, a lawful, good, and abundant provision that makes me free of need from all Your creation.'"
