Question:
He says: I came to perform 'Umrah and rented an apartment near the Haram, but I do not hear the call to prayer for the midday and afternoon prayers. When I wake up from sleep, I pray the midday and afternoon prayers. Am I sinful?
Answer:
This is your case: if your stay is less than four days, you are in the ruling of a traveler. If you pray with the congregation, you complete the prayer. If you pray alone, you pray the prayer of a traveler, shortening and combining, and there is no harm in that. However, if you are a resident in Makkah for a long period, it is not permissible for you to pray in your apartment, nor is it permissible for you to delay behind the congregation. Do something to wake you up; set an alarm clock to wake you, or ask someone to wake you for prayer. Yes.
