Question:
May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good. Is it permissible for me to pray behind a person who does not perform wudu' at all times, but only performs tayammum without an excuse?
Answer:
It is not permissible for you to pray behind a person whose prayer is invalid. If he does this intentionally, he faces the danger of apostasy, as some scholars hold that one who prays without wudu' and has no excuse becomes an apostate, because he is negligent of the rulings of the Shari'ah and negligent of the prayer. The danger is severe. He must repent to Allah the Exalted and make up the prayers he performed without wudu', because they are not valid.
