Do the Islamic fundamentalist type terrorists do terrorist stuff in the morning so that they can return to their daily prayers? Do muslims have morning prayers or do they wait until later?

Look at 9-11 happening in the a.m. They like to strike in the morning. Is this because of something ordained in the Koran? Jihad in the morning?

They strike in the morning to maximize casulties, figuring that people show up to work after 9AM

Very interesting. Muslims are supposed to pray five times a day but I don't know if there are specific times for the prayers. However, the prayer wouldn't take long so the "dead time" would probably be indistinguishable from regular moving around.

I can't tell you exact times, but there are five daily prayers times in Islam: Dawn, Midday, Afternoon, Evening and Late Evening.

It might not have very much to do with prayer times, but with the cover and confusion that rush hour provides -- not to mention media coverage is guaranteed for the entire day. Two shootings didn't take place in the morning: DC (early evening) and Fredericksburg (mid-afternoon).
