The ruling on the Hajj of one who does not pray
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Answer:
The Hajj of one who does not pray is not valid, nor is any other act of worship; because deliberately abandoning the prayer is major shirk (associating partners with Allah) that removes one from the religion, according to the correct of the scholars' opinions, if he acknowledges its obligation. As for if he denies its obligation and holds that the prayer is not obligatory, then he is a disbeliever by the consensus of the Muslims. Consequently, his Hajj is not valid because he is not a Muslim. He must repent to Allah (Mighty and Majestic) and maintain the prayer, then perform Hajj after that. The Hajj he performed while abandoning the prayer does not suffice. Yes.
