Huyayy bin Ya'la bin Umayyah says: I saw Sayyiduna Ya'la (may Allah be pleased with him) praying before sunrise. A man said to him: You are among the companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and you are praying before sunrise? Sayyiduna Ya'la (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Indeed, the sun rises between the two horns of Satan. Then Sayyiduna Ya'la (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Now, if at the time of sunrise you are engaged in the command of Allah, then this is better than the sun rising while you are heedless.
