Fathwa, - Waking up then falling asleep without performing the prayer on time

Question
The Messenger of Allaah , said: "There is no negligence when one is
sleeping." Sometimes, I sleep for a long time even though I wake up
for seconds so that I know the time and then Igo back to sleep for
somemore hours. Therefore, I miss one prayer or more. What is the
ruling?
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify
that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad
isHis slave and Messenger.
It is incumbent upon you to wake up at the prescribed time to offer
prayer in congregation and to adopt the proper means in order to wake
up at the prescribed timeof the prayer so as to reach the prayer. Upon
waking up, leave the bedquickly so that you do not fall back asleep.
Otherwise, you are considered negligent andsinful.
Allaah Knows best. - - ▓███▓ Translator:->
