Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: If I missed the Fajr prayer, do I pray it after the sun has risen?

Answer:
If you missed the Fajr prayer for an excuse beyond your control, an excuse beyond your control, then when the excuse is removed, you must hasten to pray it, you must hasten to pray it, based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
Whoever forgets a prayer or sleeps through it, let him pray it when he remembers it. There is no expiation for it other than that.من نسي صلاة أو نام عنها فليصلها إذا ذكرها لا كفارة لها إلا ذلك.
Sunan ad-Darimi 2:45

Allah the Exalted said:
and establish prayer for My remembrance.وَأَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ لِذِكْرِي
[Taha 20:14]
So he prays it immediately and does not delay it, even if it is at the time of sunrise or at the time of sunset; he does not delay it. When his excuse is removed, he hastens to make it up and perform it. Yes, and making up a missed prayer has no prohibited time; making up a missed prayer has no prohibited time. Pray it at any time, and hasten to do so. Yes.
