Delaying Fajr Due To Illness
Follow-up question: I have heard a hadith in which a man said people from his family had difficulty waking up early and the Prophet said to him to pray when he woke up. Does this not mean that unusual difficulty waking up allows for praying fajr after its time?
Kindly give reference to Hadith so that we can examine it. The most known Hadiths suggests that you must try to pray on time and due to a problem like forgetting and oversleeping, then prayer becomes due as soon as one remembers it or wakes up. But the intention should be that you will pray on time, so you set the alarm with the intention to pray on time and if you fail to wake up on time then you pray as soon as you wake up. https://sunnah.com/muslim:684c https://sunnah.com/tirmidhi:177 You cannot intentionally delay a prayer without a good reason.
