The excuse of the mother who stays up with twins for delaying the prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
One of the women says that she has twins,

The Shaykh:
Yes.

The questioner:
One of the women says that she has twins, and they may cause her great fatigue and exhaustion throughout the night, so she stays up all night with them and sleeps during the day, and does not pray the prayer at its time. Does she have an excuse for that?

The Shaykh:
No. She has no excuse for that. She sleeps during the day, but she leaves one to wake her up.

The questioner:
It does not become a leg for her. There is a bell that alerts her.

The Shaykh:
She takes the means to wake up, prays, and then goes back to sleep. Yes.
