The Benefits of Praying Isha and Fajr in Congregation

SUMMARY: Praying Isha and Fajr in congregation is equivalent to spending the whole night in prayer.

It was narrated that 'Uthman bin 'Affan said: The Messenger of Allah said:Whoever prays 'Isha' in congregation, it will be like spending half the night in prayer (qiyam) and whoever prays 'Isha' and Fajr in congregation, it will be like spending the whole night in prayer'.
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي سَهْلٍ يَعْنِي عُثْمَانَ بْنَ حَكِيمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرَةَ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ، رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ مَنْ صَلَّى الْعِشَاءَ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ كَانَ كَقِيَامِ نِصْفِ لَيْلَةٍ وَمَنْ صَلَّى الْعِشَاءَ وَالْفَجْرَ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ كَانَ كَقِيَامِ لَيْلَةٍ‏.‏
