وَ عَنْهُ عَنِ اَلنَّضْرِ عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ خَالِدٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلرَّكْعَتَيْنِ قَبْلَ اَلْفَجْرِ قَالَ« تَرْكَعُهُمَا حِينَ تَتْرُكُ اَلْغَدَاةَ إِنَّهُمَا قَبْلَ اَلْغَدَاةِ»
And from him, from al-Nadr, from Hisham, from Sulayman ibn Khalid, who said: I asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, about the two rak‘ahs before Fajr. Imam عليه السلام said: "You perform them when you are about to leave off the dawn prayer; indeed, they are before the dawn prayer."
