Hazrat Yahya bin Abdur Rahman bin Hatib narrates that whenever Hazrat Umar would go to or return from the market, he would pass by Shifa bint Abdullah. One day during Ramadan, he passed by her and asked, "Where is Sulaiman (her son)?" She replied that he was sleeping. Hazrat Umar asked, "Has he performed the Fajr prayer?" His mother replied, "No, he spent the whole night worshipping with the people, then came and slept." Hazrat Umar said, "To perform the morning prayer in congregation is, in my view, better than worshipping the whole night."

Hasan says that for me to perform the Fajr and Isha prayers in congregation is more beloved than that I worship continuously in the time between them.
