The morning prayer is one of the fardhu prayers of Muslims whose time has been determined by Allah SWT to be carried out when the sun has not yet risen.
Apart from the morning prayer, there are also 4 other fardhu prayers which have the same status as the morning prayer but differ in the time they are held, namely midday, Asr, Maghrib and Isha prayers.

Apart from differing in the time they are performed, each of the 5 fardhu prayers has its own virtues that very few people know about The morning prayer is one of those that has the most special fadilah.
The privileges offered by Allah SWT to Muslims are due to the struggle to carry out the morning prayer itself which can be said to be quite difficult.
Imagine, in conditions of extreme sleepiness, cold conditions, maybe it's raining too, we as Muslims have to carry out worship in the mosque or at home.
Rasullulah himself admitted, as recorded in the hadith of al-Bukhari, in short that there is no prayer that is more difficult for a hypocrite to perform than the morning and evening prayers.
This morning prayer only takes 2 rakats and if many Muslims knew about its privileges or advantages, they would flock to the mosque to perform the morning prayer.
So, here are the advantages of the morning prayer in question
1. Witnessed by an angel
In Surah Al-Isra verse 78, we have given a signal about the priority of carrying out the morning prayer. Establish prayer from after the sun sets until dark at night and (establish prayer) at dawn. Indeed, the morning prayer is witnessed (by angels)
Rasulullah also emphasized the same thing in Bukhari hadith number 137 "and the angels of the night and the angels of the day gather at the dawn prayer (dawn)
2. The reward is worth a full night's prayer
In the hadith of Muslim history number 656, the Messenger of Allah said, And whoever prays the morning prayer in congregation, it is as if he had prayed all night long.
3. Become a barrier to the gates of hell
In Muslim history hadith number 634, the Prophet said that people who pray before the sun rises (i.e. the morning prayer) and pray before the sun sets (i.e. the Asr prayer) will not go to hell.
4. Given the protection of Allah SWT
Every Muslim really hopes that their life will always receive protection from Allah SWT, whether it is related to life safety, good health, or running all their affairs smoothly. If this is true, then carry out the morning prayer in congregation
In Muslim history hadith number 163, the Prophet once said that Allah SWT will provide guarantees to anyone who performs the morning prayer.
5. Opportunity to share in Allah SWT's good fortune
Every human being can certainly have an abundance of good fortune, so it is not surprising that there are some individuals who use all kinds of methods to hunt for good fortune.
But did you know that Allah SWT distributes good fortune to humans only at dawn. So, whoever doesn't wake up at dawn, today his luck will certainly fail.
This information about good fortune was conveyed by Ali bin Abi Talib, husband of Fatimah Azzahra, the biological daughter of the Prophet Muhammad, that once, after the morning prayer, the Prophet found his daughter asleep.
At that time, the Messenger of Allah immediately woke up and asked Fatimah to see Allah SWT's good fortune which he always distributed after the morning prayer.
