Living with people who sleep through the prayer and only perform some of it: Should I continue living with them?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. I am from outside the city of Riyadh, and I live with people who pray, but when they go to their jobs and then return, they sleep through the prayer and only perform some of it. His question is: Should I continue living with them, and is this permissible?

The Shaykh:
No, if you are able to live alone, or in another place, or with good people, it is obligatory for you to do so, and you should not stay with them.

The presenter:
Honorable Shaykh.

The Shaykh:
If you are forced to stay with them, you must disapprove of their actions and command them to pray. Yes.
