Some brothers complain about their father because he calls the adhan for the Fajr prayer before the time of Fajr?

The questioner : The father, meaning we advised him to call the adhan for Fajr according to the calendar, and we even told him to delay the iqamah as much as possible, saying, "Oh my father, delay it as much as possible." He refused. This means, we are in front of you, and my father is present, praise be to Allah, praise be to Allah, he is in front of you, not behind you.

The Shaykh : May Allah bless you all. Let us hear his perspective.

The questioner : May Allah reward you with good. May Allah prolong your life.

The Shaykh : May Allah preserve you.

The questioner : The worshippers have said to me several times, "Why are you late with the prayer? Why do you delay it?" One of us needs to go and sleep for half an hour, meaning we are all busy with work, my dear brothers. By Allah, in the mosque, in the mosque, it is as if you are in the second prayer; you must stand up and the prayer must be performed. So I was forced to follow the worshippers on the basis that I am not contradicting them in anything. So, with the permission of the adhan, we rest and sit for ten minutes, a quarter of an hour, or half an hour. The adhan for the morning, especially, is half an hour, meaning in the last half hour. So, may Allah prolong the life of Abu Abdullah, he says, "No, you must delay it. It is not according to the saying of those who stand up." I say, "Oh my father, may Allah be pleased with you. I am returning, and I know that if they pray, they say I am hastening in the prayer, meaning it is not half an hour, it is less than half an hour." This is my perspective and the perspective of Abu Abdullah.
