Al- Bukhari and Muslim In another narration, 'Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) said: The Messenger of Allah used to perform two supererogatory Rak'ah prayer of Fajr and make them so short in duration that I used to think whether he had recited Surat Al-Fatihah (in it) or not.

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by 'Aishah, may Allah be pleased with her, speaks about the practice of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ in performing two short supererogatory Rak'ah prayers between the Adhan and Iqamah of Fajr prayer. This is a Sunnah that Muslims should strive to follow as it was practiced by our beloved Prophet ﷺ. It is important to note that these two rak'ahs should be performed quickly and not take too long as 'Aishah mentioned she used to think whether he recited Surat Al-Fatihah or not due to its brevity. This shows us how important it is for us to make sure we are mindful of our time when performing any kind of worship so that we can maximize our benefit from it. Additionally, this hadith also teaches us about being punctual in fulfilling our obligations such as prayer which is one of the most important pillars in Islam.
