Boycotting the one who abandons prayer and not living with him

Question:
The first message in this episode is one that reached the program from the Yemeni Republic, Taiz Governorate, and the sender of the message is a listener from there. He says: Your brother Abdullah Ahmad. Brother Abdullah says: I live with my father and my brother in one house, and the question is that my brother does not pray all the prayers; he prays one obligatory prayer at some times, and he does not pray the rest of the prayers; sometimes he does not pray them all. Also, his wife does not pray and does not fast. I am currently not speaking to them, nor eating with them, and I am boycotting them because of their lack of concern for prayer and fasting. Should I continue with this, or should I leave them? Or what should I do? Since I have already advised them, but to no avail, guide us, may Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and his Companions. After that, every Muslim knows that prayer is the second pillar of the pillars of Islam, and every Muslim knows that it is the pillar of Islam, and no Muslim is ignorant of the importance of prayer in Islam, and no one who has faith in his heart is lax in it. The texts have indicated that he who abandons it intentionally is a disbeliever and an apostate, even if he does not deny its obligation, which is the stronger of the two opinions of the scholars. As for the one who does not see its obligation, there is no disagreement among the people of knowledge regarding his disbelief. The result is that the matter of prayer is great, and its place in Islam is a great place. What the questioner mentioned, that his brother does not establish prayer, and even if he prays at some times, he does not pray the rest at other times, and that his wife likewise does not pray and does not fast, these are considered disbelievers. Allah the Exalted and Sublime said: or their relatives. Since you have advised him and repeated the advice to him, and he did not accept and did not comply, it is obligatory for you to boycott him, boycott him, and stay away from him, and do not live with him. You must leave if the house is his, then you must move to another residence. And if the house is yours, then expel him from your house. Do not gather with him until he believes in Allah and His Messenger and establishes prayer. Yes.
