Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success! A man abandoned prayer for four years intentionally, leaving off approximately two prayers a day, or more, and did not pay zakah, then he repented,
Answer:
A man abandoned prayer for four years intentionally, leaving off approximately two prayers a day, or more, and did not pay zakah, then he repented this year, praise be to Allah, and he increased in voluntary prayers. Does he have to make up the prayers he abandoned intentionally, and does he have to pay the zakah, or is he considered a disbeliever in the past, and Islam wipes out what came before it?
