The third question of Fatwa No. ( 17557 ) Q 3: If I wake up in the morning, should I pray Fajr or not? Some people told me that once the sun has risen, there is no need for me to pray it. A 3: It is obligatory for you to pray Fajr in its designated time, and it is not permissible to delay it beyond its time except for a valid religious excuse, such as being asleep or forgetting; based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) من نام عن صلاة أو نسيها فليصلها إذا ذكرها لا كفارة لها إلا ذلك Whoever sleeps through a prayer or forgets it, let him pray it when he remembers it. There is no expiation for it except that. Then he recited: وَأَقِمِ الصَّلاَةَ لِذِكْرِي And establish prayer for My remembrance And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
