Question:
The questioner asks: What is the ruling on one who intentionally leaves a single prayer? Does he commit major disbelief?
Answer:
Yes, but if he repents, Allah will accept his repentance. If he repents, Allah will accept his repentance. The single prayer is like the other prayers; if he leaves it intentionally, he commits disbelief. He must repent anew and maintain the prayer. Prayer is not easy, my brothers. Prayer is a great matter; it is the pillar of Islam. Does a house stand on anything other than a pillar? A house never stands on anything other than a pillar. So, the one who does not pray has no Islam.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
