When to pray if you missed the 2 rakah sunnah of Fajr


Benefit:

The Hadith of the man who prayed the two raka’ahs after Fajr, so the Prophet ﷺ said to him: “Is the morning prayer four (rak’ahs)?”, so he said: “I didn’t pray the two rak’ahs of the morning prayer……”

Is a defectious hadith,

And the most correct opinion is to pray it after sun rise

If a person misses the voluntarily prayer of Fajr, he prays it after the sun rises, because after Fajr is a prohibited time, and the Hadith of ‘Is the morning prayer four?’ is defectious.

So upon this he prays after the sun rises, and this is more authentically established.
