Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And may Allah bless you. Honorable Shaykh, a listener to the program sent this question. He says: What is required of a person who prays while intentionally in a state of major ritual impurity, then performs the full ritual bath and prays? May you be rewarded.
Answer:
He is required to repent and not return to it; because some scholars hold that he becomes an apostate if he prays without ritual purity intentionally. Some scholars hold that he apostatizes from the religion of Islam; because he is one who treats the religion with contempt and mockery. So the danger is severe. He must repent to Allah and not return to such a thing. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good,
