Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: We are a group of teachers at a private school, and we are tasked with riding the bus to bring the students to school. The bus comes to pick us up before the Fajr prayer, so we are forced to delay the Fajr prayer until after its time has passed, or we perform the prayer in our residence and then board the bus with the students so that we do not let the prayer go out of its time. Is what we are doing permissible?

Answer:
Pray after the time has entered. Pray Fajr after its time has entered and before boarding the bus. Arrange your affairs accordingly. Commit to the prayer. Commit to the prayer before boarding the bus. Coordinate boarding the bus with performing the prayer in its time.
