Setting the alarm for Fajr and not waking up for the prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, the questioner says: The one who sets the alarm in order to get up for the Fajr prayer, but he does not wake up until after the sun has risen,
The Shaykh:
Yes, and what is the benefit of the alarm? He must fear Allah the Exalted, he should fear Allah, get up for the Fajr prayer, respond to the mu'adhdhin, and leave this heavy sleep or the Satan's discouragement of him, because when Satan sees a son of Adam sleeping, you will have a long night. So when the Muslim gets up, Sahih Muslim 776 the second knot is undone, and when he prays, all the knots are undone, and he becomes good in spirit. As for the first one who sleeps and is held by the knots, he becomes bad in spirit and lazy, and may Allah protect us from that. Yes, the knots of Satan are upon him, so he becomes bad in spirit and lazy, and he should not open a door for Satan. Yes.

He tied three knots on his head and said: Sleep
عقد على رأسه ثلاث عقد، وقال ارقدand mentions Allah, a knot will be loosened; if he performs ablution
وَذَكَرَ اللَّهَ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ وَإِذَا تَوَضَّأَ انْحَلَّتْ
