If I miss the Fajr prayer by 10-30 minutes due to accidentally oversleeping, must I still pray it?

Yes, pray it immediately, as the Prophet ﷺ commanded those who overslept to get up, perform wudu, pray the two sunnah of Fajr, and then the two fard of Fajr. fajr, missed prayer, oversleeping, making up prayer, qada, sunnah https://www.youtube.com/shorts/KTPEmUUJuDY
So this happened at the time of the Prophet ﷺ in Sahih al-Bukhari, the command is they overslept And so the Prophet ﷺ he told them to get up to do wudu, to pray the two sunnah of fajr and then pray the two fard of fajr So the key thing is you don't delay, you don't hang around, you realize you overslept, okay we're humans sometimes that happens What you do is you get up straight away, do your wudu and pray your two sunnah and then your two fard And inshallah that's all that you need to do
