Question:
Does abandoning the prayer that takes one out of the religion mean abandoning one obligatory prayer of the day, or abandoning a day, or abandoning many, meaning?
Answer:
There is no difference between much and little. Abandoning the prayer is disbelief that takes one out of the religion, even if it is just one prayer, if he abandons it intentionally, even if it is just one prayer, because the ruling of one prayer is the ruling of all the other prayers. Allah, Mighty and Majestic, says:[Al-Mu'minun 23:9] Maintaining the prayers means maintaining them all, not praying some and abandoning some. Yes.
