Fear Allah as much as You are able

Question :

I am a Muslim man and all praise and thanks be to Allah - I habitually perform the prayers in the mosque, except that I am often late for the Fajr prayer because sleep overcomes me and it is difficult for me to get up, in spite of the presence of an alarm clock. Often I think about this and fear that I am guilty of hypocrisy. Am I considered a hypocrite in these circumstances? And what do you advise me?

Answer:

You must strive hard so that it is easy for you to offer the prayer in congregation, this includes the use of an alarm clock, sleeping early and charging one of your family with the task of waking you up, in case you do not hear the alarm clock. Allah, the Almighty, the All-Powerful says:
And whosoever fears Allah and keeps his duty to Him, He will make his matter easy for him.

And He, the Most Glorified says:
So keep your duty to Allah and fear Him as much as you can.

May Allah make your matter easy for you and aid you in performing what He has ordained for you.
