Staying up late in Ramadan and eating suhur with fruits or water
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, some people stay up late in Ramadan until one or two in the morning, then they eat a late meal and go to sleep. They wake up before dawn and eat suhur with fruits or water. Is he following the Sunnah?
Answer:
If he gets up in the last part of the night and eats something, he has done the Sunnah. But the issue is with the one who does not get up; he fasts through the middle of the night and does not get up until the late morning or after the midday prayer. This is the sinner, the one who commits a sin, and… Yes.
