The Adhan for Fajr Before Its Time and Praying with the Congregation

Question:
This questioner says: The adhan for the Fajr prayer is called in our country half an hour before the correct time. Should we pray with the congregation, or should we pray in our homes at the correct time?

Answer:
Advise them and clarify things for them. Cooperate with them in righteousness and piety, and make it clear to them that the adhan is being called too early. Deal with them with kindness; do not belittle them, do not abandon them, and do not look down on them. Teach them and cooperate. It is not just one person; if you are a group together, cooperate with the mu'adhdhin and the imam so that the mu'adhdhin calls early enough that they do not risk the prayer of the people, the prayer of the Muslims, so that the adhan is called at Fajr, and then they pray after Fajr. If the adhan is called five minutes or so before Fajr, people will delay and pray after the time has passed. As for praying with the congregation, do not let the congregation be left empty. Cooperate with them in righteousness and piety. But if they insist and refuse to do anything but pray before Fajr, do not pray with them. Pray after Fajr. Do not encourage them in falsehood. But advise them; do not be lax with them and do not look down on them. Denounce their action and strive against them, even through the authorities, or by referring the matter to the authorities, the judge, or the prince, so that they compel them to delay the adhan until the time, and so that they pray within the time. This is worship; this is the pillar of Islam. It must be performed after the time. If the one who commands good and forbids evil remains silent, the people will remain silent, and the evils will remain as they are. We ask Allah for safety. It is necessary to deal with them with righteousness and piety. Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, says: Then He said: If you know that they are praying half an hour before Fajr, do not leave them. It is not permissible to leave them. Teach them, denounce their action, even through the authority, or through the judiciary, or through your good neighbors. Cooperate with them until the matter is set right, but by good means, by wise means, with a good manner, not by cursing or insulting. Yes.
