Does excessive sleep invalidate the fast?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, this questioner asks: Does excessive sleep invalidate the fast?

Answer:
It does not invalidate the fast, but it causes one to miss the reward for reciting the Qur'an and remembering Allah. It may also cause one to miss the congregational prayer, and there are great dangers in it, meaning there are people talking, meaning we hear voices. Yes, the Shaykh says they interrupt me. No microphone, Shaykh. Try not to... Please, please, please, Shaykh. Yes.
