Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: A person missed the Fajr prayer on Friday and woke up while the imam is praying the Friday prayer. Which one does he start with? Does he pray the Friday prayer first and then Fajr? He says: A person missed the Fajr prayer and slept on Friday, and woke up while the imam is praying the Friday prayer. What does he do?
Answer:
First, we warn Muslims against sleeping through the prayer, and to avoid the causes of sleeping through the prayer, such as those who stay up all night without dire necessity, so they miss the Fajr prayer. Second, if a person strives to get up for the Fajr prayer and it is his habit to get up, but sleep overcomes him at times, then he is excused. However, if he wakes up, he should hasten to pray. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan ad-Darimi 2:45 There is no expiation for it except that. It is necessary to maintain the order between the prayers, so he prays the missed prayer first, then prays the current prayer. It is necessary to maintain the order: he prays Fajr first, then prays the Friday prayer with the imam. Yes.
