The ruling on one who prays without ritual purity intentionally, knowing of the state of impurity
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Do you, may Allah preserve you, have a fatwa (scholarly legal ruling) that one who prays without ritual purity intentionally, knowing of the state of impurity, is considered a disbeliever?
Answer:
If he does it intentionally and says that ritual purity is not obligatory for the prayer, if he denies the obligation of ritual purity for the prayer, then he is a disbeliever without doubt, an apostate. But if he is ignorant, then he is mistaken and his statement is not correct, but he is not declared a disbeliever because he is ignorant. Yes.
