Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: My sons, may Allah guide them, sometimes delay me from the takbir of ihram. Sometimes I miss more than one rak'ah. This is all either because they are sleeping or because they do not care. What do you advise me to do, and what do you advise them?

Answer:
I advise you to be patient with them and to accompany them to prayer. Even if you miss the beginning of the prayer, you are in struggle and you are upon reward. Be patient with them until they become accustomed to it and get used to it, and then they will comply. Yes, and do not be lenient with them. Yes.
