sunrise prayer

Morning worship ritual

Sunrise prayer is a prayer offered at or around dawn, practiced across many religious traditions.

In Islam, it refers specifically to Fajr, one of the five daily prayers performed before sunrise.

Christians may use the term for early morning devotions or liturgical practices like Lauds.

The timing connects spiritual practice to the natural rhythm of day beginning: She never missed her sunrise prayer.
