Fatwa #27765 May 2001Malaysia
Must we qadha Subuh prayer though we were sleeping because we didn't realize of the azan? and if we qadha, is it accepted?
Answer
Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) said, 'Whosoever overslept and
missed Salaat, should perform (the missed Salaat) when he remembers.'
(Mishkaat)
One should make every possible effort to wake up on time to perform Fajr
Salaat. However, if one overslept, then in view of the above mentioned
Hadith, he/she should make Qadhaa of the missed Fajr Salaat as soon as
possible. The Qadhaa Salaat will be valid and hope to be accepted by Allah
Ta'ala.
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
