The final segment of Fajr is complete; sunrise brings the disapproved state after that prayer's time has ended.

A prayer in progress when the sun rises has a particular Hanafi ruling. This differs from Asr toward sunset because the disapproved period enters only after the appointed Fajr period has ended.

The key is to distinguish a defect occurring within the period from a new disapproved state beginning beyond the period. Merely saying “near the end of prayer time” conceals this difference.
