Oversleeping and missing the Fajr Prayer due to work pressure

908

Q 9: I miss Fajr (Dawn) Prayer due to sleep. My job is very hard and difficult. I can not wake up to offer Salah (Prayer) in its due time, so I offer it at seven o'clock after sunrise. It is worth mentioning that I go to work without having breakfast because I have no time. What is the ruling on this matter taking into consideration that I offer the rest of Salahs in their due time?

A: It is not permissible for you to sleep and miss Fajr Prayer and offer it after its prescribed time. You must repent and offer Salah with the congregation in the Masjid (mosque) in its due time which Allah has prescribed.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
