YES, actually ALL four rak’ats are DUE on you and it must be offered after the sun is up [say 15 minutes after the sunrise]…niyat can/may be said in your heart. you do NOT have to say it using your tongue. it’s better to say it using your tongue. the qazaa fajr can be offered preferably up and until zohr time.

Really!? I seriously never knew this! That’s why i usually chose not to offer Fajr even when the sun had just risen
