Sleeping through the Zuhr and 'Asr prayers during the vacation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: A bad phenomenon has become common among the young people during the vacation days, especially among some of the upright ones (may Allah guide them), which is sleeping through the Zuhr and 'Asr prayers. Their excuse for this is that they do not sleep until late at night. We ask for advice to be given to these people?
Answer:
How can they be upright when they sleep through the 'Asr prayer or the Zuhr prayer or the 'Asr prayer? This is not uprightness. They must repent to Allah the Exalted and perform the prayer at its proper time with the Muslim congregation. If they claim to be students of knowledge and are a role model for the people in their conduct, then they must pray every prayer at its proper time with the Muslim congregation.
