What is the ruling on one who intentionally misses the Fajr prayer, while hearing the Adhan?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Whoever deliberately delays the Fajr prayer, despite being able to perform it on time, has committed a great sin and missed out on much good. This indicates Satan's control over him, as a man who slept until morning was mentioned to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, who said: "That is a man in whose ears Satan urinated." This falls under the warning for those who hear the call but do not answer it.
