The ruling on not waking the sleeper for Fajr until the sun rises
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
His Eminence the Shaykh: I lead people in prayer in a mosque, and I sometimes delay returning home after the Fajr prayer until I wake up my brothers, for example. If I return after the sun has risen, should I wake them up immediately, or should I leave them until they wake up on their own, even if the time has passed?
No, no,First: It is better for you to leave the mosque early than to stay in the mosque until the sun rises. Go out and wake these people up.
The questioner: But what if he is compelled to do so?The Shaykh: Even if people come to you, because staying for these people is a recommended practice (sunnah), and waking up those for whom you are responsible is obligatory.
