Till what time should Sehri (سحری کا وقت) be taken?

Assalamu Alaikum Till what time should Sehri be taken? Some people here think that even if you wake up during the time of Azan you can eat the quantity what you daily eat and not to make it a routine. Please quote references from Qur'an and Hadees.

الجوابُ حامِدا ًو مُصلیِّا ً

Time of Sehri is upto Subah Sadiq and it is not permissible to eat or drink after that whereas usually Azan is given a little after the lapse of Subah Sadiq.

في القرآن المجيد: ﴿وَكُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا حَتَّى يَتَبَيَّنَ لَكُمُ الْخَيْطُ الْأَبْيَضُ مِنَ الْخَيْطِ الْأَسْوَدِ مِنَ الْفَجْرِ ثُمَّ أَتِمُّوا الصِّيَامَ إِلَى اللَّيْلِ﴾ (البقرة: 187)
