What is the ruling on eating with one who abandons the prayer?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: We are residing in Makkah for work, and there are four individuals with me in the shared accommodation in the same room. One of them does not pray, and we eat together. Is it permissible for us to eat with him while he is abandoning the prayer?

Answer:
It is not permissible for this person to remain with you. He should not accompany you or sit with you. Expel him from the residence. This is not permissible. This is a confirmation of what is wrong and keeping a disbeliever among you and with you. Expel him from the residence. If the residence is his, meaning he is the one who rented it, you should look for another place and rent it. Yes, that is sufficient.
