It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that all the prayers of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) were almost equal in length, and likewise were the prayers of Hazrat Siddiq Akbar (may Allah be pleased with him). However, Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) started making the Fajr prayer longer, and sometimes the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would raise his head from prostration or bowing and would pause for so long between the two that we would begin to think that perhaps the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had forgotten.
