:D I pray on time most of the time. Usually I don't even need my alarm clock (if I keep on waking up at the same time).

Yes, always, alhamdulilah. :D

I find that it is much easier to wake up to al-adhan than to the annoying buzzing of an alarm clock.

For those who have a hard time waking up for fajr, I suggest installing [img]"you can't post links until you reach 50 posts_www.webrouge(contact admin if its a beneficial link)/prayalert/"]PrayerAlert[/url] (if the computer is in your room).

Then go to start > control panel > scheduled tasks > Add scheduled task.

Click "next", and then pick any program like "Paint." Set it to run 5 minutes before the fajr prayer. In the advance properties, under Settings, make sure the box to "wake the computer (from standby mode) to run this task" is checked.

Then before going to bed make sure PrayAlert is running and the volume of the speakers is loud. :P

I guarantee you that you will wake up everytime :D.

Also, I have a hard time waking up because exercising leaves me exhausted and heavy, not even the adhaan will wake me up now. Any advice?

my cell phone can last for about 3-4 days without charging :D you could put an alarm clock in your bathroom, or drink 12 glasses of water before you go to sleep...lol that helped me wake up on time once. maybe a friend of yours can call you in the morning. here are some more tips:

Assalamu alaykum.

Masha'Allah, I always make fajr, except for the day after I became muslim (I didn't know that I had to pray right away, nor did I know how to-Alhamdullilah!! Dh and I were praying by the second day. :D ).

We have an adhan alarm clock, plus dh sets the regular alarm for a few minutes before fajr so that we are already awake.

It works well for us so far.

Assalamu 3laikum,

Alhamdulillah I am lucky cuz my wife and I take turns staying up late in case my son wakes up. I call it the best graveyard shift. So missing fajr is unacceptable since Im up late, listening to lectures or surfing this site. By the way, Time sure flies when you come to IF..lol.

Wa Al Salam Ya Ikhwan

i must of forgot to put backup, or maybe i turned it off, i dont remember..

but normally i have mobi(not loud) and backup(which is annoying so i try and wake up using mobi)
