The Prophet ﷺ used to offer two light rakʿat between the Adhan and the Iqama of the Fajr prayer.

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يُصَلِّي رَكْعَتَيْنِ خَفِيفَتَيْنِ بَيْنَ النِّدَاءِ وَالإِقَامَةِ مِنْ صَلاَةِ الصُّبْحِ

Hafsa reported that when it was dawn, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not observe (any other prayers) but two short rak'ahs.

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا طَلَعَ الْفَجْرُ لاَ يُصَلِّي إِلاَّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ خَفِيفَتَيْنِ

When the dawn appeared, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ observed two rak'ahs (of Sunnah prayers).

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا أَضَاءَ لَهُ الْفَجْرُ صَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to observe two rak'ahs of Sunnah (prayer) when he heard the Adhin and shortened them.

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي رَكْعَتَىِ الْفَجْرِ إِذَا سَمِعَ الأَذَانَ وَيُخَفِّفُهُمَا

'A'isha reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to observe two (supererogatory) rak'ahs in between the call to prayer and the Iqama of the dawn prayer.

أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ يُصَلِّي رَكْعَتَيْنِ بَيْنَ النِّدَاءِ وَالإِقَامَةِ مِنْ صَلاَةِ الصُّبْحِ

When it was dawn, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ observed two rak'ahs, and I would say: Does he recite only the opening chapter of the Qur'an in it?

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا طَلَعَ الْفَجْرُ صَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ أَقُولُ هَلْ يَقْرَأُ فِيهِمَا بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ

Salim narrated on the authority of his father that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to observe two rak'ahs after Jumu'a.

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يُصَلِّي بَعْدَ الْجُمُعَةِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would not pray after Jumu'ah until he had left, then he would pray two rak'ahs. (Sahih)

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ لاَ يُصَلِّي بَعْدَ الْجُمُعَةِ حَتَّى يَنْصَرِفَ فَيُصَلِّيَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يُصَلِّي بَعْدَ الْجُمُعَةِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ يُطِيلُ فِيهِمَا وَيَقُولُ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَفْعَلُهُ

"Hafsah told me that when dawn glowed, the Prophet ﷺ would pray two rak'ahs.

Told him that when the Muaddhin fell silent, Messenger of Allah ﷺ would pray two brief rak'ahs.

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا سَكَتَ الْمُؤَذِّنُ صَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ خَفِيفَتَيْنِ

that when the Muaddhin fell silent following the call to Subh prayer and dawn had broken, he would pray two brief rak'ahs before getting up to pray.
