Cooperation in waking up the one who is negligent about the Fajr prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: We hope you will send three messages: to the one who is negligent about the Fajr prayer, to his parents who sometimes do not help him in that, and to the imam of the mosque who may be lax in checking on him.
Answer:
We combine them in one message, which is the saying of Allah the Exalted:[Al-Ma'idah 5:2] and the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him): Sahih Muslim 49a. So it is upon the parents, or upon whoever sees a person sleeping at the time of prayer, to wake him up and order him to pray, and not to leave him sleeping and abandoning the prayer. He should be patient with that, admonish him, and remind him of it. With cooperation, if Allah wills, the intended result will be achieved. Yes.

Answer:
We combine them in one message, which is the saying of Allah the Exalted:
And cooperate in righteousness and piety, but do not cooperate in sin and aggression.
وَتَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْبِرِّ وَالتَّقْوَىٰ وَلَا تَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْإِثْمِ وَالْعُدْوَانِHe who amongst you sees something abominable should modify it with the help of his hand; and if he has not strength enough to do it, then he should do it with his tongue, and if he has not strength enough to do it, (even) then he should (abhor it) from his heart, and that is the least of faith.
