A person missed many Fajr prayers due to sleep; what is obligatory for him?

Question:
He says about himself: I have not prayed many Fajr prayers because of sleep, and when I wake up, I find that the sun has already risen, so I do not pray them. Is it obligatory for me to pray them when I wake up from my sleep?

Answer:
First, first, sleep is not a permanent excuse for abandoning the prayer. Sleep is only an excuse in some cases, if it is a person's habit to wake up and pray, and he is diligent about waking up, and he has taken the measures to wake him for the Fajr prayer, but sleep overcame him at times, then sleep is an excuse for him. When he wakes up, he prays immediately, based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) . When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his Companions slept during one of his journeys and missed the Fajr prayer because they were traveling for most of the night and were not woken by anything but the heat of the sun, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered them to depart from that valley where they had slept, because Satan had visited them there. They moved to another place, then he ordered the one in charge to lead them, and they established the prayer. They first prayed the regular voluntary prayer before Fajr, then he ordered them to pray, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed Fajr for his Companions. This is the case where sleep is an excuse for him. However, if sleep is the result of laziness, negligence, and indifference, then it is forbidden for the Muslim, and it is not permissible for him to do so. If he becomes accustomed to this and does not pray until the sun has risen, then his prayer is not valid in this case until Allah the Exalted and Majestic makes him diligent and he preserves the prayer in its time.
Allah the Exalted and Majestic said: . He the Exalted said at the beginning of the Surah of the Believers: . He the Exalted said in the Surah of the Ascending Stages: . Gardens, honored, for preserving the prayer, meaning for preserving the prayer by performing it in its prescribed times. Allah the Exalted said: , meaning prescribed in specific times; it is not permissible to take it out of them without a valid legal excuse. He the Exalted said: . And among the negligence regarding the prayer is taking it out of its time without a legal command; Allah threatened them with woe.
And wasting the prayers means taking them out of their time, not abandoning them entirely. From this, it becomes clear that those who are negligent regarding the Fajr prayer, and sleep through it without caring, and do not pray until they wake up, are in great danger, and their prayer is not valid, because this is the result of negligence, the result of laziness, and the result of indifference. So whoever does that should repent to Allah with a sincere repentance, and preserve the prayers in their times with the congregation, if he wants salvation for himself. Yes. May Allah reward you with good.
