Question

Reuven and Shimon sleep together in the same room in the dormitory, and they wake up at 7:00 every morning for Shacharit. Now Reuven wants to wake up at 6:40, so he asks Levi (who is in another room) to wake him up at 6:40. Shimon claims that this shortens his sleep by 20 minutes. What is the ruling?

Answer

Hello,
Certainly, Levi should be careful to wake Reuven quietly so as not to wake Shimon.
However, it is not possible to prevent Reuven from waking up at the time he desires.
