Is the one who does not pray required to fast?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: What about the one who does not pray? Is he required to fast?

Answer:
No, his fasting is not valid until he establishes the prayer. The prayer is more emphasized than fasting. So the one who does not pray has no deed, and nothing is accepted from him until he prays and maintains the prayer.
