Is it valid to marry a woman whose guardian does not pray?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Is it permissible for me to marry a woman whose father is an innovator or does not pray the obligatory prayers?

Answer:
If he prays the obligatory prayers, that is fine, but the criterion is whether she is holding fast to the religion and is a Muslim. If she is righteous, marry her, and let someone other than her father, who does not pray, handle the marriage contract. Yes.
