Delaying the Fajr prayer until the light of dawn

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Therefore, Shaykh, some people delay the Fajr prayer until the light of dawn, and they cite the hadith as evidence for this.

Answer:
The sin, if Allah wills, is that he does not commit a sin by doing so, but he misses the virtue; he misses the virtue of praying early. Also, if it causes hardship for the ma'mum (those praying behind the imam), then it is disliked (makruh) as well, or it may become forbidden (haram) if it causes hardship for the weak. Yes.
