Leaving the pre-dawn meal in Ramadan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: In one of the years, Shaykh, in Ramadan, we and the entire family did not eat the pre-dawn meal because we sleep late. So, for example, at one o’clock we would eat whatever was available and fast throughout the month, and we left the pre-dawn meal for the whole month.

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that. It is better to delay the pre-dawn meal until the end of the night, because that is stronger for you. If you eat the pre-dawn meal before that, do not intend to fast except at the time of the pre-dawn meal; the intention is not made except at the time of the pre-dawn meal. As for the meal, it is better to delay it until just before the dawn breaks. Yes.
