Is the one who pays zakah but does not pray considered a Muslim?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is the one who pays zakah but does not pray considered a Muslim?

Answer:
No, prayer is the foundation of Islam. No zakah or other deeds are accepted until one establishes the prayer. There is no share in Islam for the one who neglects the prayer.
