Dealing with a mosque imam who misses the Fajr prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: We have a mosque with a residence, and our imam does not pray in it except two obligatory prayers a day. Sometimes we wait for him for the Fajr prayer and he does not come, and he says that his sleep is heavy. He says: What is your guidance for us and for him, because we suffer greatly from this?
Answer:
Do not suffer greatly. Go to the mosque affairs department and ask for another imam so that you may be relieved of him. Yes.
