Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: Is the one who sets his alarm for work time and not for prayer time sinful?
Answer:
That is, he does not get up for prayer, he only gets up for work. This is not worshipping Allah (Mighty and Majestic). We ask Allah for safety. It is obligatory for him to set his alarm for prayer time so that he gets up for prayer, prays with the Muslims, and then returns to his sleep. As for setting his alarm for work and leaving the prayer, that is not the action of a Muslim. He is concerned with his job and not with his religion.
