QUESTION:
What is the reason behind why there are Chassidish Rebbes don’t try to make zman tefillah and they daven late? How can it that there are tzaddikim who are so careful with every halachah and they are the greatest ovdei Hashem, but they daven very late, not just once in a while but as l’chatchilah, to begin with? Since we have an obligation to be dan l’kaf zechus a tzaddik, what is the way to understand their conduct?
ANSWER:
Any tzaddikim who daven[ed] late was because they were an ones, they were not obligated to daven since they didn’t feel spiritually prepared or physically clean enough for davening!
The inner root behind it is because their soul root comes from Don, or, they have a “spark” (nitztoz) of Don in their souls, and Don’s role is to “gather together all the camps”, and that is why Heaven made them exempt from davening when the time came to daven, and therefore they davened later.
This is only what we can say to judge them favorably, but we are not allowed to use this reason in practice!
