The ruling on a wife separating from her husband who is negligent in prayer

Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: There is a man who sleeps through the Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers for a period of two days. His wife is righteous, and we do not praise anyone beyond what Allah knows. She is advising him and encouraging him to do good, but to no avail. What should she do? It is known that he has been in this state for a long time, estimated at several years?

Answer:
She is required to seek separation from him if he is insistent on being negligent in prayer and indifferent to it. She is required to seek separation from him and not remain with him, because it affects her and affects her offspring, and he does not become a husband for a righteous Muslim woman. This is a failure on the part of the guardians (awliya) that they do not choose for their wards. They do not choose for those whom the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) advised to choose when he said, "When comes to you one of whose religion and trustworthiness you are pleased, marry her." He began with religion: "whose religion and trustworthiness you are pleased." If the guardians had taken this matter seriously and did not marry off their wards except to one who holds fast to his religion, the market for these open sinners would have dried up and they would not have found anyone to marry. But they marry them off without scrutinizing anything, and this is what emboldened them to this matter.
