Sleeping all day during Ramadan

Q: Is it valid for a person observing Sawm (Fast) to have Suhur (pre-dawn meal before the Fast) and perform the Fajr (Dawn) Prayer, then sleep till the time of Zhuhr (Noon) Prayer, then wake up to pray then sleep till `Asr (Afternoon) Prayer, then wake up to pray `Asr then sleep till the time of Iftar (breaking the Fast)?

A: If the circumstances are as you have mentioned, then your Sawm is valid. But continuously sleeping during the day of Ramadan is a form of negligence as Ramadan is a special time that one should benefit from by reading the Qur'an, seeking sustenance, and learning.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
