Q
What is the importance of the `Asr and Fajr prayers in the context of angelic visits and divine observation?
A
Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “There are angels coming to you in succession at night, and others during the
day, and they all gather at the time of `Asr and Fajr prayers. Then the angels who have stayed with
you overnight ascend (to the heaven) and He (Allah) asks them though He perfectly knows their
affairs. ‘In what state have you left my slaves?’ They say, ‘When we left them, they were praying and
when we came to them they were praying.’ ”
