Hajj, 'Umrah, and Seeking Forgiveness for One Who Died Having Abandoned Prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: My father died without having prayed a single rak'ah for Allah. Is it permissible for him to perform 'Umrah and Hajj and seek forgiveness for him?
Answer:
No. If he abandoned prayer intentionally and died in that state, he is not a Muslim. Therefore, one does not pray the funeral prayer for him, nor does one give charity on his behalf.
