The questioner:
The questioner says: What is the ruling on marrying a woman to a man who does not pray the Fajr prayer until after the sun has risen?
The Shaykh:
Because intentionally abandoning the prayer until its time has passed is disbelief and misguidance. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Mishkat al-Masabih 569 And whoever intentionally abandons it until the sun rises has intentionally abandoned it. Likewise, whoever abandons the 'Asr prayer until the sun has set. It is permissible to keep a man who neglects prayer away from a Muslim woman until he repents to Allah and pledges to perform the prayers.
