Waking people for fajr salah is a Sunna of the Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. He would awaken others whilst on his way to offer fajr salah.^{^[1]} The 2^nd Caliph of Islam, ꜤUmar Al-Fārūq رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْهُ did the same.^{^[2]} Islam’s 4^th Caliph, ꜤAlī b. Abī Ṭālib رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْهُ would also do this. ^{^[3]}

We should practice this Sunna of waking others for fajr. اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه We will gain countless blessings.

* By waking others, we can read fajr salah in congregation ourselves.

* We will gain the reward of spreading the call to righteousness early every morning.

* Everyone person you wake will be rewarded for offering salah, and you yourself will gain reward for this اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه.

* In places where you cannot wake others by calling out in the streets, wake them by phoning them.

* You will have the opportunity to walk early in the morning, and this is beneficial for your health.

* Another important benefit is that the atmosphere in the masjid will improve. An Islamic brother mentions: “We began waking others for fajr salah in the winter, and the number of worshippers increased so much we had to install canopies in the courtyard of the masjid.” سُـبْحٰـنَ الـلّٰــه
