The Ruling on Waking Children for the Fajr Prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah preserve you, my children wake up for the Fajr prayer three times, and sometimes I sit and wake them until they get up from sleep, but then some of them go back to sleep and do not pray Fajr. What is my responsibility in this matter?

Answer:
You have to take a stick. If you hit him once, he will not go back to sleep a second time. But if you just say, "Get up, so-and-so, get up, so-and-so," that is not good. Take a stick with you, and if you see that he is late, give him a stick or a stick, and see what you are doing.
