Sleeping through the Fajr prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner says that he is unable to get up for the Fajr prayer and prays at seven o'clock. Does he commit a sin in doing so?

Answer:
Answer: Yes, it is obligatory for him to pray the Fajr prayer with the congregation and then sleep. It is not permissible for him to leave the congregational prayer, nor is it permissible for him to delay the Fajr prayer beyond its time. He must not be lenient in this matter, for Allah does not accept a prayer if it is delayed beyond its time without a valid legal excuse.
