The Ruling on Delaying Making Up the Fajr Prayer After the Sun Rises
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Sometimes I sleep through the Fajr prayer until the sun rises, then I remain in bed, perhaps for an hour or more, and then I get up and pray it, thinking that the time has passed, so there is no harm in delaying the make-up. Is my action correct?
Answer:
They are all sins that lead to one another. You sleep through the Fajr prayer, you persist in sleeping, and you delay making it up. All of this is not permissible. If you intentionally slept, then your praying it does not benefit you. You have missed its time, and it is not accepted. But if you were excused in sleeping because it overcame you, then you should hasten to pray it when you wake up. Yes.
