The answer

No one is obliged to sit in the prayer area after the Fajr prayer for recitation, but sitting to remember Allah at this time is good and permissible. Indeed, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, used to sit in his prayer area after the Fajr prayer until the sun rose.

A great virtue has been mentioned in the Hadith: "Whoever prays Fajr in congregation, then sits remembering Allah until the sun rises, then prays two rak'ahs, will have a reward like that of a Hajj and Umrah." He said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Complete, complete, complete." And it is hoped that a woman will attain this great reward if she sits in her prayer area after the Fajr prayer.
