[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There are two Dawns. As for the Dawn which appears like the tail of a fox, it does not allow the prayer and does not prohibit food. As for the Dawn which spreads horizontally across the horizon, it allows the prayer and prohibits food. This is how it has been narrated with this connected chain of transmission and this transmitted chain of transmission and it is the most authentic."  

البيهقي:١٧٦٥أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ الدَّارْبَرْدِيُّ بِمَرْوَ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ رَوْحٍ الْمَدَائِنِيُّ ثنا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ أنبأ ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ ثَوْبَانَ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْفَجْرُ فَجْرَانِ فَأَمَّا الْفَجْرُ الَّذِي يَكُونُ كَذَنَبِ السِّرْحَانِ فَلَا يُحِلُّ الصَّلَاةَ وَلَا يُحَرِّمُ الطَّعَامَ وَأَمَّا الَّذِي يَذْهَبُ مُسْتَطِيلًا فِي الْأُفُقِ فَإِنَّهُ يُحِلُّ الصَّلَاةَ وَيُحَرِّمُ الطَّعَامَ هَكَذَا رُوِيَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ مَوْصُولًا وَرُوِيَ مُرْسَلًا وَهُوَ أَصَحُّ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: There are two types of dawn. As for the dawn that appears like the tail of a wolf, prayer is not permissible at that time but eating is permissible. However, as for the dawn that spreads horizontally in the sky, prayer is permissible and eating is not permissible.

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: They are two dawns. As for the one that appears like the tail of a fox, then it does not make anything permissible or impermissible. And as for the elongated one that extends along the horizon, then it makes the prayer permissible and prohibits eating. This hadith is transmitted and has been mentioned with reference to Jabir ibn Abdullah."
