When the Prophet ﷺ traveled, he would say this dua at the end of the night:
سَمِعَ سَامِعٌ بِحَمْدِ اللَّهِ، وَحُسْنِ بَلَائِهِ عَلَيْنَا، رَبَّنَا صَاحِبْنَا، وَأَفْضِلْ عَلَيْنَا، عَائِذًا بِاللَّهِ مِنَ النَّارِ
Transliteration
Sami'a saami'un bihamdillaahi wa husni balaa'ihi 'alaynaa. Rabbanaa saahibnaa, wa 'afdhil 'alaynaa 'aa'ithan billaahi minan-naar.
Translation
He Who listens has heard that we praise Allah for the good things He gives us. Our Lord, be with us and bestow Your favor upon us. I seek the protection of Allah from the Fire.
حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ بِلاَلٍ، عَنْ سُهَيْلِ، بْنِ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ إِذَا كَانَ فِي سَفَرٍ وَأَسْحَرَ يَقُولُ " سَمَّعَ سَامِعٌ بِحَمْدِ اللَّهِ وَحُسْنِ بَلاَئِهِ عَلَيْنَا رَبَّنَا صَاحِبْنَا وَأَفْضِلْ عَلَيْنَا عَائِذًا بِاللَّهِ مِنَ النَّارِ " .

Abu Huraira reported that when Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) set out on a journey in the morning, he used to say: " A listener listened to our praising Allah (for) His goodly trial of us. Our Lord! acompany us, guard us and bestow upon us Thy grace. I am seeker of refuge in Allah from the Fire." [Muslim: 2718]
Say this dua at dawn while traveling. Allah's mercy and safety come to you. Every morning on the road gets full of Barakah and hope.
Fajr has two rakah. Pray at dawn before the sun comes up. Say Surah Fatihah and another surah out loud in both rakah. This prayer blesses your day and is an important part of islamic morning prayers.
When traveling, shorten four rakah prayers to two rakah. This includes dhuhr, asr, and isha. It makes prayers easier on the road. Keep your daily dhikr and masnun duas too.
O Allah, make easy our journey and shorten its distance. O Allah, you are the companion on the journey and the guardian of the family. Protect us from difficulties and unpleasant sights.
Yes. Fajr time is after dawn and before sunrise. It's one of the must-do islamic prayers. It connects you to Allah and starts your day with zikr allah.
Prophets prayed at dawn. It's a special time to connect with Allah. It gives you guidance and is an important part of muslim dua and your morning routine.
