The Ruling on One Who Abandons the Congregational Prayer While Maintaining It at Home

Question:
The questioner says: I am a young man of thirty years old, and I live next to the mosque, but I do not maintain the prayer. I hear the adhan and the iqamah. Am I a disbeliever for this action?

Answer:
If you are praying at home, performing the prayer at home, then you are abandoning the obligation of your prayer being valid, and you are abandoning your duty. And you have committed a sin. So if you repent to Allah and maintain the prayer with the congregation, then Allah accepts the repentance of whoever repents to you with repentance to Allah and maintaining the congregational prayer, especially since you hear the adhan and are next to the mosque. Yes.
The disbeliever is the one who abandons the prayer intentionally, not praying it, not at home and not in the mosque, not with the congregation and not alone. This is the disbeliever. As for the one who prays in his home and abandons the prayer with the congregation, he is not a disbeliever. He is one who abandons an obligation, and he has committed a great sin, and he must repent to Allah the Exalted and Majestic. Yes.
