📝 Question:

He says, we have an imām who runs the Da'wah, but he regularly misses the Fajr congregation due to oversleeping. We want you to advice him.

✅ Answer:

Our advice for him is (as follows):

{یَـٰۤأَیُّهَا ٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لِمَ تَقُولُونَ مَا لَا تَفۡعَلُونَ}
"O believers! Why do you say what you do not do?"

{كَبُرَ مَقۡتًا عِندَ ٱللَّهِ أَن تَقُولُوا۟ مَا لَا تَفۡعَلُونَ}
"How despicable it is in the sight of Allah that you say what you do not do!"
[Surat As-Saf 2-3]

Likewise, Allāh the Almighty said:

{أَتَأۡمُرُونَ ٱلنَّاسَ بِٱلۡبِرِّ وَتَنسَوۡنَ أَنفُسَكُمۡ وَأَنتُمۡ تَتۡلُونَ ٱلۡكِتَـٰبَۚ أَفَلَا تَعۡقِلُونَ}
"Do you preach righteousness and fail to practice it yourselves, although you read the Scripture? Do you not understand?"
[Surat Al-Baqarah 44]

▪️So how can the imām of a masjid regularly fail to attend the Fajr congregation? This indicates negligence and carelessness (on his part), and we seek Allāh's aid.

▪️It is not permissible for anyone to miss the Fajr prayer, let alone the imām. In fact, by this, he is indirectly encouraging others to miss the Fajr prayer.

▪️Moreover, the Prophet ﷺ said of a man who slept throughout the night till morning:
((ذَاكَ رَجُلٌ بَالَ الشَّيْطَانُ فِي أُذُنَيْهِ))
"That is a man in whose ears Shayṭān has urinated."

▪️And he ﷺ informed us that a man who does not get up to pray (Fajr), wakes up feeling sluggish and in low spirits.

▪️And the most burdensome prayer for the hypocrites is the Fajr and 'Ishā prayers, so we advise him to fear Allāh the Almighty and take the necessary means to wake up early; like setting an alarm. But prior to that, he should go to bed early, do his adhkār and make regular istighfār (seek forgiveness).

We ask Allāh to forgive us, our parents and the believers.
