A husband who prays Fajr after sunrise and his wife's advice

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says that her husband sometimes does not pray until after the dawn has risen, and she advises him and reminds him of Allah. Is there anything required of her besides that?

Answer:
She must be patient and continue waking him up and commanding him to pray. She must bear the hardship, and she will be rewarded. She must not leave him to not pray with the congregation. The point is that he prays after Fajr; the point is that he also abandoned the congregation, which is obligatory. So she must wake him up and be patient with this until he realizes that she will wake him. When he realizes that she will wake him, he will get used to it by the second or third night. But if he realizes that she will leave him alone, he will fall into deep sleep. This is cooperation in righteousness and piety, while leaving him is cooperation in sin and transgression.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
