Subuh Gajah

60 years in hellfire. That's the reward for not performing Subuh prayer. [sigh].
Actually I'm having a huge problem  to perform Subuh prayer since the daytime is getting longer. As early 6.05am, the sun is already welcomed by Pompeyans. Subuh is 4.13. T,T
Why is it so hard to readjust my biological clock?
For those who are in the same  boat, it is makruh to sleep before the prayer time.
Having said that there's a strong assurance that you could be awake in time AND there's a sufficient amount of time for wudhuk and solah, it should be ok. The downside of it, if you miss your prayer because you slept longer than intended, you had committed 2 sins> prayer+sleep
Moral of the story..stay awake until subuh and don't swipe your hp to SNOOZE

Wait, why do Malays call late Subuh prayer as Subuh Gajah? Ellies and friends are innocent in this case. Unlike human, they only sleep about 3-4, at the same place and time. They are all  highly disciplined and even better in this sense. The young elephants won't be overslept by nature because their mothers will wake em up. Thinking of this, am I far worse than Gajah?
