Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah keep you safe, Your Eminence the Shaykh. Is it not possible for the lazy and sleepy people to rely on Abu Qatadah’s hadith? They lie in their beds near the adhan and then say, “There is no negligence in sleep.”
Answer:
No, no, that is a mistake. There is no negligence if one sleeps at the usual time, but if he is lax and stays up late, then he is negligent. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
