The ruling on one who prays intentionally without ablution

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He said (peace and blessings be upon him).

The Shaykh:
No, it is not permissible for him to continue in the prayer, and if he continues, his prayer is invalid. The prayer of those behind him is also invalid because it is not valid.

The questioner:
Raise the latest phones that are originally...

The Shaykh:
No, he is not declared a disbeliever for this, but he errs in this. Some scholars hold that if one intentionally prays without ablution, they rule that he has committed apostasy because he is one who treats religion with contempt, meaning he is among those who treat it with contempt, so they rule that he has committed apostasy. However, if he did it out of ignorance or negligence and with intent, this is considered an error; his prayer is invalid, but he is not declared a disbeliever. Yes.

The questioner:
And go to Shaykh Muslim.

The Shaykh:
And the whole matter is one thing; the point is the prayer. I am praying, whether I performed ablution or not, we say this is apostasy, that he is denying Allah and His Messenger and the consensus of the Muslims.

Another questioner:
The Friday prayer.

The Shaykh:
This is the point of disagreement. Some scholars do not consider it apostasy, but it is correct, if Allah wills, that he does not commit apostasy, meaning he did not consider this act permissible; he did not deem it permissible.
