Question:
Those who come in late, at two and a half in the morning, are given food by their colleagues in the rest areas and eat something for the pre-dawn meal, then they sleep and leave the Fajr prayer?
Answer:
Answer: This is a major crime. First, he fasted before the time for fasting; he ate the pre-dawn meal before the time for the pre-dawn meal, before the dawn appeared, and this is an error. Second, the major crime is that he sleeps through the Fajr prayer, causing it to pass its time, and he leaves the congregational prayer. So the Muslim must repent from this action and preserve the prayers.
