The ruling on making up the dawn prayer for one who slept through it after the sun had risen
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh! A questioner asks and says: If a man wakes up from sleep after the sun has risen, is it permissible for him to pray?
The Shaykh:
Pray the dawn prayer.
The questioner:
Yes.
The Shaykh:
If his habit is to wake up after the time has passed, and he is negligent in that, such as if he rides or sets the alarm after the time has passed, a group of scholars have issued a ruling that he does not make up the prayer because he intentionally abandoned the prayer. However, if he wakes up after the time has passed after having been diligent in trying to wake up but was unable to, or sleep overtook him and he could not get up at times, it is established that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) slept through the dawn prayer and did not make it up until the sun was hot. Allah forgives and pardons. But the problem lies with the one whose habit is that, for this person is in great danger, because the prayer after its time, according to a group of the people of knowledge, is like the prayer before its time; it is not valid before it, nor is it valid after it.
