Question:
May Allah reward you with good. Also, my cousin, who is eight years older than me, is divorced and does not pray. In Ramadan she fasts and prays. And when she makes up the days she missed in Ramadan, she prays. But on the other days, she abandons prayer. What is required of me regarding her, after I have advised her and she did not comply?
Answer:
As mentioned previously in this matter, the one who deliberately abandons prayer is not among the Muslims, and it is not permissible for his relative to love him or be friendly with him until he believes in Allah and His Messenger. You had a good example in Ibrahim and those with him when they said to their people: "Indeed, we are disavowed of you and of what you worship besides Allah. We have disbelieved in you, and enmity and hatred have appeared between us and you forever until you believe in Allah alone." The one who deliberately abandons prayer is not a believer; he must be boycotted and cut off, even if he is a relative, until he repents to Allah the Exalted. Yes.
