๐ Ways to wake up for Salat Al-Fajr early:
1) Assign somebody in your family or remind your spouse to wake you up when it's time for Fajr or Tahajjud prayer. Tell them it's okay if they splash or sprinkle some water over you, poke you or shove you until you get up, you'll be happy, not angry, that they followed your order to wake you up to pray on time.
2) Set your alarm clock to ring at about thirty or so minutes before the Adhan of Salat Al-Fajr. Your alarm clock shouldn't be placed by your bedside or right next to you because you may be tempted to turn it off and return to sleep. Put it on a table, cabinet or shelf next to the bathroom so when the alarm clock rings annoyingly, you can get up from your bed and walk towards it then proceed with doing wudhu/ablution.
3) If you don't have an alarm clock, you can use your cellphone or android gadget and download as many reliable alarm clock applications as you want. Set as many alarms as you can with different timings to make sure you actually wake up at least several minutes before Salat Al-Fajr.
4) You can stay awake throughout the whole night until you pray Salat At-Tahajjud then wait for the Adhan of Salat Al-Fajr. After you've prayed the Fajr prayer on time and said your morning Adhkaar, you can have a quick nap or sleep for around two or so hours prior to proceeding with your job, class, appointment etc. Remain energized by washing your face frequently and drinking lots of water.
5) Buy a rooster as a pet (not for eating), which can assist in waking you up around Tahajjud time and just before Salat Al-Fajr whenever it crows. Roosters are especially blessings since they have the ability to see Angels.
6) Sleep early after you've prayed Salat Al-'Ishaa and Sunnah Witr. The earlier you go to bed at night, the easier you can wake up before the Adhan of Salat Al-Fajr, particularly if you make it a habit of sleeping early. Oversleeping usually happens when the person slept late or was too stressed out and fatigued earlier that day.
7) Have the niyyah/intention before sleeping that you want to sleep early so you can wake up the next morning to pray the Fajr Salah on time. Try to also look forward to praying Sunnah Qiyam Al-Layl / Tahajjud if you can.
Allah will Inn-sha-Allah help you get up early when He sees how eager and enthusiastic you are in wanting to always pray Tahajjud and Fajr Salah on time. Say Du'as as well and supplicate to Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala that He helps you never miss any obligatory prayer from now on.

๐ Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated that Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "When you hear the crowing of the rooster, ask Allah for His Favour as it sees Angels and when you listen to the braying of the donkey, seek refuge in Allah from the shaytan for it sees a demon."
Sahih Muslim 2729 Book 48, Hadith 112

๐ ‘Uqbah Ibn ‘Amir RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "A man from my nation arises in the night to treat himself with purification. There are knots over him. If he washes his hands, a knot is untied. If he washes his face, a knot is untied. If he wipes his head, a knot is untied. If he washes his feet, a knot is untied. Allah the Almighty will say to those in the Unseen: 'Behold this servant of Mine, treating his soul and asking from Me. Whatever this servant of Mine asks Me, he will have it.'"
