Is it obligatory to repeat the Fajr prayers that were performed after an Adhan that is most likely to have been called before the true dawn (Al-Fajr Al-Sadiq)?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The Fajr prayer, or any other obligatory prayer, must be repeated if it was performed before its due time, because the entry of the time is a condition for the prayer's validity. This applies if the dominant presumption was based on a thorough investigation and observation by someone familiar with the শরعي (Shari'ah) signs. However, if it was based on obsessive doubts and suspicions, then it does not need to be repeated.
