670. It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ recited: And recite the Qur'ân during the Fajr. Verily, the recitation of the Qur'ân during Fajr is ever witnessed.[1] He said: "It is witnessed by the angels of the night and the day." (Sahih)
670 - حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ بْنُ أَسْبَاطِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الْقُرَشِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَالْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ {وَقُرْآنَ الْفَجْرِ إِنَّ قُرْآنَ الْفَجْرِ كَانَ مَشْهُودًا} [الإسراء: 78] قَالَ: «تَشْهَدُهُ مَلَائِكَةُ اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ»

This shows the importance and merit of the Fajr prayer. The Asr prayer also partners it in merit. Angels witnessing the congregation is indicative of the pride of place in the Divine scheme occupied by the believers.
