Staying up at night and missing the Fajr prayer

Question:

“May Allah reward you, the questioner says: I go to bed late at night. So I set the alarm for the Fajr adhan and sometimes I don't wake up except one hour after the prayer. Am I being sinful by that and what is there upon me to do?”

Answer:

“If you are staying up at night and don't go to sleep until the end of the night, then you are sinful. Sleep my brother! Take your portion of sleep so that you can get up for the Fajr prayer. However if you are taking your portion of sleep at night but your sleep is heavy… your sleep is heavy and the alarm didn't wake you up and this not in a constant manner, rather it is in some occasions; then you are excused. The pen is lifted for three. And from them the sleeping until he wakes up. Yes. If you are the cause for not getting up for the Fajr prayer then you are sinful, doing something prohibited. But if you are not the cause for that then you are not sinful. Yes”

:السؤال
أنام في وقت متأخر من الليل فأضع المنبه على أذان الفجر وأحياناً لا أستيقظ إلا بعد الصلاة بساعة، فهل بذلك أكون أثم وماذا علي
أن أفعل؟
الجواب: إذا كنت تسهر ولا تنام إلى آخر الليل فأنت آثم، يا أخي نم خذ حظك من النوم على شان تقوم لصلاة الفجر، أما إذا كنت أخذ حظك من نومك الليل؛ ولكن نومك ثقيل والساعة ما أيقظتك وليس هذا بصفة دائمة إنما هو في بعض الأحيان فأنت معذور في هذا، "رُفِعَ الْقَلَمَ عَنْ ثَلاَثَةٍ ومنهم: النَّائِمِ حَتَّى يَسْتَيْقِظَ"، إذا كنت أنت السبب في عدم القيام لصلاة الفجر فأنت آثم فاعل محرم، أما إذا لم تكن متسببا في ذلك فأنت غير آثم
