The Ruling on Praying for a Hypocrite

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Is this person a hypocrite? Is it prohibited to pray for him?

The Shaykh:
Maghrib, and do not pray for him. If it is known that he does not pray, do not pray for him.

The questioner:
Does he report it, or does he not report it?

The Shaykh:
If the hypocrisy is apparent and well-known, do not pray for him.
