سَعْدٌ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي اَلْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ رَكْعَتَيِ اَلْفَجْرِ أُصَلِّيهِمَا قَبْلَ اَلْفَجْرِ أَوْ بَعْدَ اَلْفَجْرِ فَقَالَ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ« اُحْشُ بِهِمَا صَلاَةَ اَللَّيْلِ وَ صَلِّهِمَا قَبْلَ اَلْفَجْرِ»
Sa‘d from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Abi Nasr, who said:
I said to Abu al-Hasan عليه السلام, peace be upon him: "The two rak‘ahs of Fajr, should I perform them before Fajr or after Fajr?" He (narrator) said: “Abu Ja‘far عليه السلام said: "Insert them into the night prayer, and perform them before Fajr."
