Imran bin Husain said: The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم was on his journey. They (the people) slept abandoning the Fajr prayer. They awoke by the heat of the sun. Then they travelled a little until the sun rose high. He (the Prophet) commanded the muadhdhin (one who called for prayer) to call for prayer. He then offered two rak'ahs of prayer (sunnah prayer) before the (obligatory) fajr prayer. Then he (the muadhdhin) announced for saying the prayer in congregation (i. e. he uttered iqamah). Then he led them in the morning prayer.
