The ruling on one who leaves the Fajr prayer in its time
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: I am an employee, and I do not pray Fajr until six o'clock. What is required of me?
Answer:
It is obligatory for you to repent to Allah for what you have done, and to pray with the Muslims in congregation at its time. This is a great evil, indeed it is disbelief. We ask Allah for safety. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Mishkat al-Masabih 569 So whoever neglects it at its time intentionally has left it. It is obligatory for you to repent to Allah, and to pray at its time with the Muslims before the sun rises, with the Muslims in the mosques. This is what is obligatory for you, and you must repent to Allah for what you have done.
