Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
She says: When I wake up for the prayer, I do not enter its time, without intending it. In fact, most of the sincerity is in my heart. Is this a creation of Shaytan?
Answer:
No, this indicates faith. This indicates faith. If you sleep through the prayer until its time has passed, and then you wake up feeling distressed and regretful about it, this indicates faith. Praise be to Allah. It is not from waswas (whispers) and it is not from Shaytan. As for the one who wakes up at ease and does not pray at whatever time he gets up, and is not affected by it, this indicates weak faith or hypocrisy. Yes.
